My first release has debuted on itch.io for the low low cost of approximately one beer! I'm thrilled to finally get something out and actually finish a project I can be proud of. While I'd written my own game engines from scratch in the past, this is my first completed project using Unity. I'd love to be able to thank all the people who have posted how-to's all over the Internet for wrangling Unity into doing what you want it to but at this point I've been through so many the list would be obsolete by the time I finished copypasta'ing the whole thing in. IN particular though would like to give a shout-out to whomever is behind http://pavcreations.com; that person provided me a lot of super useful info as I was getting started.
Have fun spinning balls and breaking bricks!
