Better Bouncing & Particle Effects — Unity 2D Racer (#6)

Welcome to this series building a 2D top down racer in Unity! In this video we give our racing game proper player controls. We set up Unity's new Input System, create input actions for our car, and implement a GameInput singleton to manage player input. These inputs are then connected to the car movement system so the player can accelerate and steer the vehicle using physics-based movement. By the end our racer will be fully controllable and ready for more advanced gameplay systems.
