My review of another great Packt Publishing book! This time on Unity AI!

On Wednesday March 4, 2015 I will review the book "Unity AI Game Programming Essentials."  The book is written by Curtis Bennett and Dan Violet Sagmiller.  The book goes into details about 3 Unity AI solutions that are available in the Asset Store.  The first is Quick Path which is available for $10., then there's React AI which costs $45., and then there is RAIN which is free.  Most of the book uses the free RAIN plug-in.  I am looking forward to reading more about these plug-ins. For more information see the book listing at Packt Publishing.
