Basics

Game engines are structured to provide a framework for creating and managing the various components of a game, such as rendering, physics, input, and scripting. The core idea is to streamline development by offering reusable systems and tools.

Start and Update Methods

• Start Method: Used for initialization logic. It runs once when an object is first created or activated in the game.

• Update Method: Used for per-frame logic. It runs repeatedly, usually once per frame, and handles dynamic behaviors like movement or input processing.

Prefabs

Prefabs are preconfigured templates for game objects. They allow developers to create reusable objects with predefined properties, behaviors, and hierarchies, making it easier to replicate consistent objects throughout the game.
