This is my first project at really using Unity, and in the game development community there is a saying that you don't need to know coding that well to make a game using it. It seems that is actually the case... to a certain extent.
It seems that although you COULD technically use only the built in libraries for Unity, and how it handles cameras, assets, and rendering; to make a game using 100% code, it is entirely possible to use just assets, and use the settings provided with each asset with a few scripts here and there to glue things together.
One plus side of Unity is that the community is really big, and if you need a certain asset, what you're looking for will probably be in the store. Even if you need a certain functionality with it, you could potentially find that also. Making changes in the game to be event driven is also taken care of nicely in the engine itself, and is able to be set through simple dropdown boxes when you add it to a certain scene. Even if you do need to write code for certain events, the libraries handle a large component of the groundwork already.
So for anyone with cool ideas for games, or is even an aspiring game developer. Unity is a great engine to experiment with, even if you're not from a coding background.
