About the role
This internship interview focuses on building and improving small playable experiences in Unity. The panel wants evidence that you can turn game rules into maintainable C# scripts, investigate performance and learn from playtesting. A compact finished project is more useful than an ambitious idea with no working build.
How to prepare
- Revise Unity components, prefabs, scenes, collisions and the main event methods.
- Practise explaining how your C# scripts share state without becoming tightly coupled.
- Profile a small project and identify rendering, physics or scripting work that can be reduced.
- Prepare one example of changing a mechanic after watching someone play.
- Review how you organise assets and commits when several people work on a scene.
Common mistakes
- Talking mainly about the game idea without explaining the working systems.
- Putting expensive searches or allocations into every frame without measuring them.
- Rejecting playtesting feedback because the intended control felt obvious.
- Using one large script for unrelated gameplay, interface and audio behaviour.
