    Hey,

    Ok, so this is my first official Question. I am trying to make a 2d shooter game and I was following a tutorial, but now I'm stuck. The tutorial doesn't cover making intro cutscenes. I am using the free version unity 3d so I know you can't add MOV files into it. So what would be the best way to make an intro scene?

    Hi there,

    Welcome. The most straight forward method would be use your game assets and animate them in a scene. You essentially render it real-time vs a pre-rendered animation. This is especially helpful in reducing the file size of your game since you are reusing assets instead of a 100mb video for example.
