Unity Tutorial 04

 


This week in my unity tutorials I progressed with my Ruby's Adventure game. I delved into sprite animation and world interactions -projectiles.

I was excited to learn about sprite animation and how it all works. I first started by adding an animator component, I then went on and made a new controller. I then went on to learn how to make animations from what I had in the assets folder. I learned how to change a sprite, create an animation and build the controller. I then went to the blend tree, set parameters and sent them to the animator controller and modified my script. 

I then moved on to world interactions - Projectiles. I first created the projectile from the sprite named CogBullet, then I created a physics system to be able to launch the projectile. I also learned more about what the instantiate function does in Unity. I then worked on fixing a few errors and setting up my layers and Collisions. I then went ahead with fixing the robot and cleaning up the code so we don't cause performance issues.

Introduction to a future [Please Enter Career]

Hi all! Just want to write an introduction to who I am and a few things about me. College Life  One of my favorite classes that I took last year was Website Development. I found it enjoyable and interesting to learn all about developing websites from scratch using HTML and CSS. I put my time and effort in and feel like I came out of the module with some good Websites. I feel like this year, while in my 2nd year of this course, I will really enjoy Website Design as I'll learn more about building websites and add on to what I know already. One of my biggest accomplishments of last year was learning a lot of skills like building websites, learning how to use Illustrator and Photoshop and creating video's from my own content. I found it enjoyable and was excited to learn these skills and can't wait to accomplish more using these skills in the future. My goals for this module is to learn more about multimedia, using different platforms available such as Twitter and blogging. Ano

Game Idea Research

  (image of 3 characters  from subway surfers,  source ) For my game idea I will stick to a game that is similar to how subway surfers is. I've played a lot of Subway Surfers when I was younger and am well accustomed to their game mechanics and would like to try to make something similar. The first game mechanic that I would like to have is to make or generate an endless track that only stops when the player hits an object and losses for example. This would mean that I don't have to make each individual part of the track and only a frame for it. A second game mechanic that I would like to have are obstacles and objects that the character has to avoid. These can come in many shapes or forms such as objects you just have to dodge, ones that you can jump over and possibly some that you can slide under if I can figure out a way to make the player slide. Another obstacle I could have would be to make an object come towards the player. A third game mechanic that I would like to have

This week for our Reading Task we read the following: What is a Game, Anyway? The organic nature of game ideation Four basic methods for generating ideas When it comes to what a game might be, a definition I have come across in my readings is 'A play activity with rules that involve conflict' which is an easy way to put it. In fact it is more complicated than that especially when you compare different game styles. To get a solid meaning of what a game might be, you have to be using the same vocabulary across all games, which is still being defined as new games come out and new words are added.  To put simply these are some of the definitions when it comes to games: Games are an activity  Games have rules, conflict, goals and involve decision making.  Games are artificial, safe and outside of ordinary life.  We, as players gain no material gain And many more When it comes to game ideation, from the paper that I read, the interviewees have seen game ideas differently,
