Unity Tutorial 4

Image: Unity Prototype 2

What I learned from this tutorial was how to collide objects on Unity into other objects, so in this case the obstacle (the pizza) erased the other obstacles (the animals), also how to randomly spawn the animals at different intervals and positions and lastly triggering a "Game Over" message . 

What I enjoyed most about this was the creating the script  "DetectCollisions" which allowed me to add the destroy feature which actually helps it feel like a video game.

Challenge 2 


For this part of the tutorials I had to design a short game of "Fetch with a dog" and the name of this task "Challenge" lives up to it's name; the fixing of the c# script was really difficult. My main problem in this was the script of "SpawnManager" where I had to spawn the balls at different times and what I had an issue with for most of this task was actually getting them to spawn. I went over the last tutorial I did and found out I was missing the "int" feature to actually state the class I put the balls in. 

Overall I was impressed with my work and the tutorials came in handy for both tasks!

My Favorite Game

Main logo for Red Dead Redemption 2 (2019) My Favorite Game that I have ever played since owning a console was Red Dead Redemption 2. This ought to be the best game of the decade and was also voted as the number 1 game of 2019 and has been labeled the best video game of  ALL TIME ! The game was able for all gaming consoles Xbox and PS4 and later came out on PC with a higher FPS and better graphics then the consoles a month later. Although the game itself was popular; many found the game demeaning, sexist and even racist at times but the game was set in the late 19th century where there was many of these acts committed. I guess the company that made the game "Rockstar Games" just wanted to capture what it was like to live during the golden age and end of gunslingers and law-breakers.  You play as Arthur Morgan, a old gunslinger along with his gang of criminals who are running away from the federal police who are keen on killing him and his crew and finally ending the...

Tutorial 6

  Unity Tutorial 6 In this tutorial, I had to create a health-bar for Ruby, this was really a interesting way to learn how health-bars are made on Unity and creating one that came out really well was even better as it was in-sync with the c# script "RubyController" and "UIHealthBar" from the beginning. The use of a UI or User Interface was another experience, very difficult but helps the game stand out. Next what I had to do was create an NPC, a frog who ruby would talk to by coming up to them and pressing "X" and then a dialog box which was created using UI~ Canvas~ Text to display a message warning Ruby about the robot.  It was cool to learn how to interact with NPC's and allow them to speak to you or send a message. The method known as raycasting which is basically a collider lets this happen.

Tutorial 2

   Unity Tutorial 2: World Design For the second tutorial of the Unity tasks, after creating the tilemaps by splicing them and laying down the ground and the pavements in the games world, it was now time to decorate it. Using all the sprites provided, I laid the land out with trees, grass, metal boxes etc.  The physics system as it was suggested in the tutorials was the force of the movements from the characters within the game and controlling the gravity which pulls it down, the force applied from pushing and friction when moving on the ground. In this part, I mainly fixed the way in how Ruby moved throughout the world and what boundaries she couldn't move through. My favorite part was adding the tilemap collision, by selecting the tilemaps with water on them I was able to create a box collider without selecting them all individually and preventing Ruby from walking on water. I didn't struggle as much throughout these tasks I rather enjoyed them.
