1st Playable

 


1st Playable


I am now at the point now where I have my 1st Playable,  I now have my main character going up and down, the enemies spawn at random places. Now since the 1st Prototype, I had added a few more features into the game which made it more like a game now. I have added a Game Over screen with a Restart button in the middle if you choose to play again. 


I also changed the settings up for the enemies so that they are a bit more scattered around the map because last time I made it a little but easy for the player to get past all the enemies because they are all grouped together but now everytime a new enemy spawns in, they spawn somewhere completely random. And the spawn time between each enemy is about 0.6 seconds.


I also added a HUD system into the game aswell which is a timer on top of the middle of the screen indicating to the player how have seconds they been surviving for in the game. And this gives a bit of competition in the game therefore without it, it would just be a bird on the screen avoiding monsters without any purpose except for trying to avoid it. 


This game looks really good so far in my opinion and I think this is really close to making the Alpha/Beta version in a short amount of time, because I did intend for this game to be a simple but fun game for anyone to play. And I am pretty happy with how far my efforts got me. If I were to add anything else, maybe I could try add in a Start menu aswell or some sound effects too. But I am not really sure about that now.



This is the Game over screen I had made everytime the player collides with the green monsters

This is the gameplay screen, the HUD timer on the top, playable character on the left, and the enemies spawning from random positions

Introduction to a Future Success

  Introduction to myself :)  This is me Nasim Slavotic :) Hello! My name is Nasim Slavotic, I am 20 years old and I am now a 2nd-year student in TUDublin Blanchardstown doing Creative Digital Media. I am from Dublin and I work part-time in my dad's butcher shop here in Blanchardstown in Coolmine near the post office.  What are my hobbies?  In my free time, I like to go to the gym. Also, I like to go out and take pictures with my camera and make videos on my Youtube channel (NaSiM101) which I took a break from for a while from the pandemic but I do love to brainstorm new ideas for videos and discover new trending things. I also love going out with my friends but now I am starting to go back out again since the pandemic had closed everything before but now everything is coming back to normal slowly but surely. When I'm bored I like to head on Photoshop and Illustrator and just make whatever comes in my mind.  https://pxhere.com/en/photo/1621191 Favourite Foods...

My First Playable

  First Playable My First Playable game so far At this point right now in the process of making my game, I have now implemented the environment, the 3d character, the HUD interface of the gold coins, the player being able to run forward across the map and move left and right avoiding the obstacles pressing the left and right keys or the A and D keys. I also implemented the trigger where when you run across the coins you are able to collect the coins and the number of coins you collect will appear on the top left of the screen. I adjusted the main camera angle to be a third-person view of the entire game so it gives a good perspective of the coins and the obstacles. I then added plants to give it a better aesthetic and look to the game. The thing I wanted to change from my original vision was that I wanted to make the game way more suited to the theme of the game itself. So instead of wooden spikes, I added logs and instead of tree trunks I added regular trees and then I also added ...

Alpha

  Alpha  This is my progress, I have updated the HUD and I added a few more features in the environment What is going good? So far so good, the game is coming along well. There are a few scripts I put in such as collecting coins, player movement, environment design, generating random levels and level boundaries.  The Technical Difficulties  But there are a few technical difficulties I am going through which is every time I try to put a rigid body component into my player when I added the jump feature into my player controller script, the player for some reason falls through the map and I tried many times trying to fix the issue but I will try my very hardest to fix it. I also need to add in collision detection with the obstacles and when the player does collide with one of the obstacles it will say game over and you have to restart again. Those are some of the difficulties I am facing, I will try and reach my lecturer or one of my peers in class to see if they know t...
