UNITY TUTORIAL 03

This week I learned how to give Ruby a health status. I added a maxHealth and currentHealth variable to the RubyController script. I made sure that Ruby would have full health at the beginning of the game by adding "currentHealth = maxHeath" in the start function. I added a ChangeHealth function along with the appropriate code that allows the health status to change. I brought a strawberry into my scene as a collectible object that boosts Ruby's health. I applied a box collider to the strawberry and activated "is trigger". I created a new script for the collectible and applied the code that would allow Ruby to collect the strawberry and give her health.

I added a damage zone to my scene and created a script for it. I applied the code that would cause Ruby's health to decrease if she were to come in contact with it. I changed the sleeping mode of Ruby's prefab to "never sleep" and edited the RubyController script so that she will be invincible for a bit while standing in the damage zone. I also introduced an enemy bot, turned it into a prefab, and gave it a script. I added the appropriate code that allows the bot to move back and forth in the scene. I edited the code so that Ruby will take damage when she collides with the enemy.

PROTOTYPE

I browsed through the Unity asset store to find a package with nature objects that I could use to set up the scene for my infinite runner game. I downloaded the Nature Starter Kit 2 and started building my scene in Unity. This was a little time consuming but I'm satisfied with the way it turned out. I upscaled the trees and bushes, keeping in my mind my initial idea of gaining inspiration from the movie "The Secret World of Arrietty." I got the character from a tutorial I have completed for this module before and positioned the camera behind it. Screenshot of my work in Unity3D. With reference to the lesson 3 Unity tutorial, I started coding by creating the PlayerController script. I used the AddForce method and allowed the player to jump by clicking the spacebar. I declared two public variables to be able to adjust the gravity and player's jump force. Looking into the player's animator controller, I applied a static running animation. I then added a jumping ani...

INTRODUCTION TO SOMEONE WHO'S JUST VIBING

HEY!! Look who made it to her second year of college!! Me, Nadine, I did!! Yeah, I'm even more surprised than you are. Happy girl illustration by 94MLK_ on Twitter. Saved from Pinterest . Last year wasn't too bad, but that was up until the whole country went into quarantine and I began to fear for my college career. I was constantly on the verge of giving up on my assignments but I would like to thank my friends for not allowing that to happen. I'm so glad I get to start year two with them and hopefully we'll make it to the end together too! Despite the stress, there are a few pieces of work from year one that I'm proud of. I liked the websites that I created for Web Development 1 and 2, the video I edited from Introduction to Digital Media mission 3 and the advertisement poster I made for Digital Photography. I hope to produce better work this year. Personal screenshot from the index page of my web development 1 project. Personal screenshot from the index page ...

FIRST PLAYABLE

Continuing with the creation of my game, I resized the player character to make them even smaller based on a comment that was left on my last project blog. I also repositioned the trees to make the space slightly narrower and added some flowers to bring some colour into the scene. With reference from the animal feeding game tutorial, I was able to get the player moving left and right by clicking the arrow keys. I brought in rocks and a branch for obstacles but I need to apply a SpawnManager script and get them to spawn randomly during gameplay. I also have to figure out how to get some branches falling from the trees and bringing in power-ups and points too. Screenshot from Unity3D of my game production.
