Game dev Course: First project

I am starting to get into my first project from the Game dev course. It is making a 2D space shooter game.

First of all, we need to create a project on Git so that we can have our backup on git. I’m going to use GitLab for this project.

Then, Fill up the information for the project.

Click on Create project after complete this process.

We can see the repository created on GitLab. Now to get this project on our Local machine and be able to save our work to this repository we need to make clone this repository on the local machine as shown below,

Now make a new folder on the drive and open gitbash and type git clone command to make a clone of our repository.

But there is a problem while cloning the project from GitLab.

To solve this issue we need to add our username after “https://” and then add “ @ ” after it,

I added my username and @ to the clone link.

Now, close GitBash and go to the cloned folder. Add a .gitignore file to the project then open GitBash again. use git add, git commit, git push commands to push the newly added file as our first commit.

Now create a unity project and add it to this folder or move this folder to the unity project location.

Commit these changes by following previous git commands step-wise. Now we can start our work on the project.
