Unity Tutorial 06 (Ruby's 2D Adventure)

This is the sixth tutorial of the tutorial tasks in this course, in this tutorial I learned how to visually style the game, add a user interface and make a HUD (Heads-Up Display). A HUD is basically an image overlay in the game which illustrates the player's health, items, timer, objectives and player avatar etc. Another part of this tutorial is adding interactions within the game so that you can interact with other characters of the game. In this case, I made an interaction with a frog character whose the game objective of what to do in the game which eliminates the enemies.

The way how I went about making these is as follows,

This was the process of making the health bar which is a gold stroke, with a blue bar and the Ruby Character avatar on the left

The code for the User Interface for the Health bar

This was the end product of the HUD display in the game of the health bar

This was the process of making the interaction with the frog

In the end, this is how it turned out, I made a script in visual studios where you press the key "G" near the frog to be able to interact with him

This was the script of the interaction script

The thing I want to learn in the next tutorial is being able to put audio in the background and see a step by step guide to uploading my game to Itch.io

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...
