As the title suggests, this is a series of articles and video tutorials designed to teach people how to create a Farming RPG game in Unity. Be forewarned: as RPG games are very complex, some parts of these tutorials involve pretty complicated programming concepts. The bright side is, going through these tutorials can help you learn a lot about Unity and about programming in a very short time.
Note: Project files are included in the later parts of these tutorials, and are available to Patreon supporters. Each tutorial also comes with an accompanying video, which can be found in the article itself.
