This is a podcast about Unity3D development. Not just developing games, but also business apps, simulations and other applications you can use unity for. Heck we might even loose ourselves in the metaverse. We are going to dive into best practices, popular design patterns and game architectures. Software development methodologies and processes. And of course game design and everything that revolves around it.
The aim is to be an entry level platform while still diving deep into the trenches of game development every now and then. And, of course, in the end having fun and producing valuable content for everyone involved!
Hi there my fellow gamedevs and welcome to the 16th episode of the All Things Unity Podcast.
In this episode we will check out chapter 4 of The Pragmatic Programmer called Pragmatic Paranoia. We dive into numerous interesting topics like the concept of designing by contract, assertive programming, when to use exceptions and balancing your resources.
Leave me a review or send me some comments if you like. You can also contact me at podcast@allthingsunity.com.
And remember; With Unity, we can do great things.

Episode 14, The Pragmatic Programmer Part4
Hi there my fellow gamedevs and welcome to the 14th episode of the All Things Unity Podcast.
This time we are going to check out chapter three of The Pragmatic Programmer written by Andrew Hunt and David Thomas. Chapter three is all about the “Basic” tools. We are going to dive into the power of plain text as this is what really drives our industry. Furthermore, we discuss why learning a console interface is a good idea and why it is really important to invent time in really making an IDE your home. You need to know the hotkeys in your tools to really be productive.
Of course our tooling is not complete without source code control. David and Andrew spent some time talking about this too. And last, we will start with the section about debugging. So there’s a lot to cover in here :D.

Episode 11, The Pragmatic Programmer Part 1
Hi there my fellow gamedevs and welcome to the 11th episode of the All Things Unity Podcast. This time we are going to start with a new very interesting book; The Pragmatic Programmer by Andrew Hunt and David Thomas. This is one of my favorite books about software of all time and will definitely have a positive impact on you as a game developer.
In this episode I mention a couple of things;
First of all, I mention a book I’m currently reading called “Modern Software Engineering” by David Farley. You can find a link here: https://www.amazon.com/Modern-Software-Engineering-Discipline-Development/dp/0137314914 and the other book I mention, “Moonshots” by Naveen Jain: https://www.amazon.com/Moonshots-Creating-Abundance-Naveen-Jain/dp/099973640X.
I also mention I wrote a bunch of blogs about a course on Enterprise Architecture (EA) I did past year. You can read them here if you are interested: https://hamersoft.com/?s=enterprise+architecture
I hope you enjoyed this episode and learned something.

Episode 10, A Philosophy Of Software Design Part 6
Hi there my fellow gamedevs and welcome to the 10th episode of the All Things Unity Podcast. It’s been a while but we’re finally back. I’ve been far to busy lately but I finally got around to record this episode. In this episode we are going to end our discussion about a book called A Philosophy of Software Design by John R. Ousterhout. It’s a rather lengthy episode but I really wanted to wrap things up for this deepdive.
For the next episodes I’ll be doing another series of episodes about The Pragmatic Programmer by Andy Hunt and Dave Thomas. Plus I’m going to start and put some effort into getting guests on the show so you don’t have to listen to my voice only.
Make sure you join me with the next episodes as well and don’t forget to rate this podcast or leave me a review or send me some comments. You can also contact me at podcast@allthingsunity.com.
And remember; With Unity, we can do great things.

Episode 9, A Philosophy Of Software Design Part 5
Hi there my fellow gamedevs and welcombe back for another episode of the All Things Unity Podcast. Today we are going to continue our deep dive of the book A Philosophy of Software Design by John. R. Ousterhout.
This episode will cover chapter 15, 16 and 17. Chapter 15 is about what I would call Comment Driven Development.
Chapter 16 is all about modifying existing code, and the last chapter we will cover in the episode is chapter 17 which is all about consistency.
If you have any comments or feedback, please let me know at podcast@allthingsunity.com or you can leave me a review on your favorite podcasting platform.
Thank you for listening, and remember; With Unity we can do great things!

Episode 8, A Philosophy Of Software Design Part 4
Hi there my fellow gamedevs and I’m pleased you join me on the 8th episode of the All Things Unity Podcast. In this episode we are going to continue our discussion on chapter 13 about a book called A Philosophy of Software Design by John R. Ousterhout. We are looking into this book because we are exploring alternatives to the practices and advise given in a book called Clean Code by Robert C. Martin aka. Uncle Bob.
In this episode we are going to continue right where we left off last time. We were talking about the types of comments Prof. Ousterhout thinks are useful and should be added to the code where possible. There are some really interesting contracts to Clean Code in this chapter so sit back and enjoy.
We will also take a look at chapter 14, which is all about naming things like fields, properties, variables, functions, arguments to these functions, return values and classes or interfaces. This is a subject where Prof. Ousterhout and Uncle Bob are pretty much on the same line. There’s still a lot really nice information in chapter since Prof. Ousterhout gives you some really nice high level or philosophical information, where Uncle Bob gives you lot’s of practical information.
