Imitating Kratos Axe | Inspired by Games

One of my favorite ways of learning is reverse-engineering, which is taking an existing thing and try to re-build it by observing how it works. Doing this method of learning will increase your instincts and creativity to think outside of the box and have a different perspective on the same point.

I decided to implement that method with you guys in my Unity tutorials so you can create interesting projects and learn more about programming and game dev techniques. So I started a new series called “Inspired by Games” where we pick a feature from our favorite games then try to imitate it in Unity based on our observation. (Episode 2, Episode 3)

As I have been playing God of War recently, I decided to start this series with the axe of Kratos since it is interesting to play with. In this tutorial we copy the axe’s basic mechanics (Throwing & Returning).
