Unity Free Tutorials

Unity Free Tutorials

Hey! Welcome back to my blog. In this blog I will be explaining what tutorials helped me add certain elements to my game.

The first video I watched was "Unity - How to jump" by Waldo. I chose this video because I want to add variety to my avatar's abilities. At the moment it is difficult for my avatar to jump from one platform to the other without falling. So I aimed to make t=it easier for the player by using what I learned from this tutorial.

I created new private references within the #C Script to do this. By changing the integer I was able to make a double jump. I changed the characters vertical velocity while maintaining the horizontal velocity. I still find C# Script really difficult but this tutorial was really helpful and I was able to copy it straight from his script.

The second video I watched was "How to make a Health Bar (Unity 2D Tutorial for Beginners)" by Code Monkey. I want to make a health bar to show how long the player has to live. I found this tutorial a lot harder than the first. I attempted to follow the script but did not do it correctly. I hope to find some more tutorials that may have a clearer/simpler explanation.

I'm looking forward to finishing my game and showing it to my classmates. I can't wait to see everyone elses! ☺

    Hi Lauren, these tutorials/videos seem to be very helpful and im sure everyone can apply them to their game somehow. I like the layout of your blog and you seem to know where your going with your game which is good. The c# script is quite difficult I do agree so I will look at this video and it will probably help me out! Best of luck with your game and I'm looking forward to seeing it.

Introduction

Introduction to Me My name is Lauren Murphy and I am 20 years old. I live in Castleknock and have 4 people in my family including myself.  My favourite class last semester was Design Process and Practice. I have a big interest in graphic design and I really enjoyed learning about the principles and rules of design. My goals for this module are to improve my blog writing skills and successfully create a video game. Image 1: Boracay Beach During Summer I went on holiday to The Philippines. I travelled for 22 hours to Manila, where I stayed for 4 days. I then flew to Boracay and Cebu. Each place was amazing and different in their own way. I met a lot of people who were travelling alone around Asia. After listening to some people's experiences, I have decided I will definitely go back to Asia next summer. I also went to Hungary this Summer. Some of my friends were interrailing around Europe so I met them in Budapest for 4 days. I went to the famous Baths and also wen...

Game Idea Research

Game Idea Research Hi again! After brainstorming a few ideas for my game, I have decided I'm going to stick to an adventure style. As I've said before in previous blog posts, I gained a lot of inspiration from the Crash Bandicoot and Spyro series. The user of the game will be able to walk around a virtual world. They can collect gems which will add to their score. There will also be different type of keys hidden around the world. Each key will unlock another part of the world to explore. Once the player unlocks an area, they will have to fight small creatures that are walking around. As the players score increases, their strength will increase. This allows the player to fight tougher opponents as the game goes on. The player's health will take a toll if hit by a creature they are fighting. The aim of the game is to beat the creatures and collect all the keys to unlock the entire world.  Image 1:   Minecraft Virtual World I hope to learn enough...

Game Elements

Game Elements This week's readings game me an insight on the questions that must be asked when thinking about; p layers, objectives, rules, resources, game state, information, sequencing, player interaction, theme and games as systems. I found the examples given for each of these very useful and gave me an idea of all the variations there are. Image 1:  https://pxhere.com/en/photo/948574 I think the "Three step process" given for critically analyzing a game will definitely come in hand: "1. Describe the game’s formal elements. Do not interpret at this point, simply state what is there. 2. Describe the results of the formal elements when put in motion. How do the different elements interact? What is the play of the game like? Is it effective? 3. Try to understand why the designer chose those elements and not others. Why this particular player structure, and why that set of resources? What would have happened if the designer had chosen differently?" ( h...
