Name the project, select 2D, and click Create. It’s important to note that project creation is done here instead of inside Visual Studio, though it should feel familiar. When that is finished, visit the Projects tab and click the New button to launch the project creation wizard. First, visit the Installs tab, click Add and install the latest Official Release. You can use the Hub to install a version of Unity and create a new project. The Unity Hub manages Unity installation, project creation, and links to additional learning resources like sample projects. Getting startedĭownload and install Unity and Visual Studio for Mac using the Unity Hub.
