Before async was introduced in Unity 2017, asynchronous routines were implemented using coroutines and/or callbacks. This session covers the benefits of async over coroutines. You’ll see how one sample problem – building an asynchronous prompt pop-up – can be solved using async vs coroutines.
Johannes AhvenniemiLead Programmer, Seriously Digital Entertainment
Johannes got into game programming around the same time he learned to read and write. His passion is finding the most pragmatic yet beautiful solutions to tricky problems. That's why he's creating experimental game engines in his spare time. In his day job he's worked on F2P Match-3 games since 2013, currently as Lead Programmer/Project Lead in a prototype at Seriously Digital Entertainment.

A single, unified UI editing tool in Unity is our goal for UIElements. Learn about UIElements for runtime, new UI authoring workflows, and how we’re building the tools to benefit artists and creators.
Learn what’s involved in migrating existing game code to the Data-Oriented Technology Stack (DOTS), which comprises the C# Job System, the Entity Component System, and the Burst Compiler.
Introduction to the DOTS Sample and the NetCode that drives it
Join us for a deep dive into the networked future of Unity using DOTS. We share how we made the DOTS Sample a networked game, and what we learned along the way.
The Animation Rigging package provides a library of rig constraints for you to procedurally control skeletal animation at runtime. Learn how to set up rigs for animation authoring and more.
Bringing 2D characters to life with sprite rigging
When animating characters and elements in your game, it’s important to know the benefits and drawbacks for each technique. In this session, learn what’s new with Unity 2D’s rigging.
Learn how DOTS processes data ultra fast in two areas of Far North Entertainment’s new game. We also provide a concrete example of how you can implement DOTS in a traditional Unity application.
Join us for an overview of the new 2D graphics features, including 2D Lights, 2D Shader Graph, and 2D Shadows, learn how to improve a 2D level using these tools, and see how they all work together.
Get a high-level overview of the Entity Component System (ECS) and turn-based game loops. This session shows ECS concepts in a slightly exotic context, and also shares some use case pitfalls.
Optimizing and deploying real-time ray traced GI with RTXGI
We review ray tracing, show behind-the-scenes VFX breakdowns for a Unity demo, and share best practices for lighting and modeling when working with NVIDIA RTXGI and accelerated ray tracing.
Learn how the Demo team used Unity features like the High Definition Render Pipeline, Post Processing, Shader Graph, Visual Effect Graph, and Timeline to create the real-time short film, The Heretic.
Discover best practices on how to leverage the Addressable Asset System to simplify your content management, and how Addressables can enable success through your game’s initial release and updates.
The High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) helps both indie and AAA studios produce high-quality visuals for PC and console games. Learn how and when to start using it for production.
We provide an overview of the physics systems and workflows powering DOTS. Get insight into design considerations underlying Unity Physics and how its use cases differ from those of Havok Physics.
Quickly generate game character behaviors using AI and ML
Join us for a walk-through of the Unity Behavior Planner, Unity ML-Agents Toolkit, and Unity Inference Engine – three tools that leverage state-of-the-art AI algorithms to help with your next game.
