File Operations in Unity

This video tutorial by Code Monkey teaches how to save and load data in Unity using files. It starts with an introduction to saving data using PlayerPrefs and then transitions to using the file system. The tutorial covers the basics of reading and writing files, saving and loading a single value like gold amount, and handling multiple values using a custom file format. The video concludes with a brief introduction to using JSON format for more complex data structures, which will be covered in the next video.
