Unity Tutorial 01

I just completed the Unity tutorials lab 1.1, 1.2, 1.3!

I was so happy that I got to start learning new skills that I could use to create my first game. Even though I found it difficult at the beginning since I was still not familiar how the software work, I still learned a couple of things every stage of the tutorials. Such as getting to use to the tools and creating Assets folders, moving the vehicle down the road at a constant speed, and also experimenting with mass to the vehicle and obstacle objects which was fun because when they started to collide, they started flying into the air.😂I also experienced how to code a game for the first time which was very cool and it has a similarity with website coding as well so it wasn't too bad for me to understand. 

The person who teach us in the video was also very helpful and straightforward. I also like the way that he makes some error during the tutorials because it shows that even an expert programmer makes mistakes. 

However, I still have difficulties with the tutorials when I started. It took me a while to understand how the camera angles work making me a bit behind with the tasks but overall, everything was good. I am  also looking forward to more tutorials so I could improve more skills along the way 🙏.

Twitter List!

Lee jong Suk giving you flowerrrsss Hi guys! How are you doing? I tried to create a List on Twitter. Link to an external site I have never created a Twitter List before so it is a new experience. I also think that this will be useful to me especially in the future as I want to explore more about animators and designers and learn from them. I also think that creating a list of specific topics would help you to find them easily and it is more organized.

Game Idea Research

Maze  Inspiration Last week, I started to collect some game ideas and talk about what we like about them. However this week, we have to choose on out of all the game ideas we picked. The game that I decided to do is similar to "Roller Splat!" but in 3D instead because that is the type of game we are learning in Unity. I think that it will be helpful as I can utilize the skills that I learned from the tutorials to my project instead of studying another type of game. I will have more time to develop my game better if I stick to 3D style as well. Choosing this type of game is also a good starter, especially for people who want to make a game for the first time like me. My game will also be played in a first person point of view means that the camera of will be placed at the back following the ball inside the maze. While doing my secondary research, I find countless of game tutorials on YouTube that are related to the idea I am going for. Most of them are also made in Unity which...

Unity Tutorial 04

This week's tutorial lesson was very straightforward and easy to follow. I also did not have any problem with the Unity tutorial videos and the software this time which I am really glad about. I learned how to apply codes that can destroy the objects when the collision is detected. I also know how to add the "Game Over" message in coding if the farmer missed feeding one of the animals. The tutorial lesson also taught us how to spawn the animals at timed intervals so that the animals will appear randomly on the game. Here are the things that I learned for this week's Unity tutorial: Lesson 2.4 New functionality: Animals are spawned on timed interval and walk down on the screen and the animal gets past the player without getting fed, there's a "Game Over" trigger massage at the left bottom of the screen. When the projectile and animal collide, objects are removed right away. New Concepts/Skills: Create custom methods/functions InvokeRepeating() to repeat c...
