    Yes I would like to convert that level of the Space Shooter tutorial to turn it into 3d but I need to know how I could make the space ship and the Asteriods and the Alien Ships to urn in 3d upwards and downwards to chase the player and the player to avoid and to chase as well How do I get it to turn in 3d ?

    It's the same concept except your working with another axis 'Z'. The simplest way would be to do a transform.lookat and make the ship look at input.mousePosition. as for the asteroids spawning them is the same but with the Z axis.
    Code (CSharp):
    1. new Vector3(Random.Range(-200,200),Random.Range(-200,200) ,Random.Range(-200,200) )

    yes the transform.lookat function will work how ever there is no delay in there rotation and they will always be facing what ever transform you pass through the function.
