Unity 3 Javascript Tutorial – Scripting Basics - Unity 3D Tutorials - Game Development Tutorials

You can use Javascript, C#, Boo script or a combination of the three. In reality though, scripting in Unity is slightly different than other mediums. So let’s just call it Unity script. The scripting language you choose will dictate what syntax you must use in your scripts and what methods and functions will be available to you. For a beginner the easiest medium is Javascript.
