Unity Tutorial 07

WEEK 8                                                                                                               UNITY


 This week I found a Unity tutorial that would be beneficial for my own game. This tutorial was about shooting raycasts. I learned more about colliders and hitting an object with a ray. I tried this tutorial on my game and did the scripts step by step but the sample game has too many components that I don't have so it did not work out in the end. I did learn a few new things about colliders and rigidbody but the tutorial didn't change anything in my game because I did not have some of the more advanced elements that were in the tutorial. I used some script coding from the tutorial which made me learn a few new thins that I did not know.

Next, I followed another tutorial by Brackeys https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkKsl1Mfp5M . In this tutorial, he showed how to shoot an object and create a first-person shooter. I followed this tutorial yet my cannon didn't want to shoot anything out of it. Most of the examples I find online have 2D versions instead of 3D so it is hard to find something that would suit my game.I applied some other methods that did work in my game.  

Some of the tutorials that I found I could not create due to missing elements in my game or something else but I did learn a few more things that I did not understand before.

My game so far :)

Introduction to a future business owner

A picture of me :)  Hi, I'm Milena, nice to meet you. I am 20 years old and I love food, joking, well not really because I do love food but there's more to me than love for food. I can speak three languages, English, Russian and Lithuanian. I came to Ireland when I was five years old and got thrown into junior infants a week later not knowing any English and you probably know how that went. I did a lot of crying for the few first weeks because I could not understand one word anyone was saying to me but then I learned.  This is how to say hello in Russian and Lithuanian.  -Russian:  Привет (Pri-vet) Privet -Lithuanian: Labas (La-bas)

Game Vision Statement

Projects: Vision Statement vision idea/design document     A vision idea/design document is created to present a plan that you have for your game. In this document, I will be expressing my idea of the game. I have decided that I am very interested in the game that would be called “Shooting stars”. I had game ideas like "shoot the starfish", shoot rings onto a big starfish, or shooting bubbles but I like the sound of shooting stars. The name "shooting stars" reminds me of the night, calmness, and overall peace. This game is all about relaxing your mind and destressing but also could be a challenge. The game genre is shooting.  The gameplay starts of with a beautiful dark night sky, some relaxing music playing in the background, and possibly some sound effects of shooting stars like some “SWOOSH” sounds or any other sounds that "shooting stars" could make. At the bottom of the screen, there is a shooter or a shooting station. The shooting station would have ...

Game Design

Game Design Public domain license Link to image Game design seems hard yet after reading a few articles you soon realised how easy it can be to design and create a game. In my mind to create a game you have to be a genius with all of the knowledge of coding but after reading a post by Angela He" From Zero to Game Designer: how to start building video games even if you don’t have any experience"  you realise that in order to create a game all you need to have is an  idea, information about what kind of game you want it to be and the purpose, characters, some experience playing games, and some passion.   After reading the class reading task I realise you can create a game by drawing a simple line on a paper and dividing it into sections forming a challenge for the character. The next step is to choose a character and the enemy for example I chose an apple as the main character and a girl as the enemy. The apple runs away from the girl because the girl loves apples and there...
