When Unity takes a long time to load
Screenshot with the sound effects


Hi guys~

For this week's project update, I tried to create my menu scene again but I still have a LOT of problems. At first, I tried to follow the same tutorial from this week's lab work task and sadly it still did not work even though Shaun advised that I should not use the TextMesh Pro font as we thought it was the one that causes the problem. The tutorial was straightforward, but Unity kept crashing down, and even though I have all of it save during the process, everything that I have done still got deleted.

I decided to look for another tutorial for the Main Menu, I found this 5-minute video tutorial. I find it helpful and it is simpler than the first tutorial. Unfortunately, while I'm nearly done making it, Unity crashed again, so I ended up having nothing is done which is very frustrating because I want to make a decent game by the end of this semester and Unity isn't cooperating :(.

The only things that I get to work on were, adding a background sound effect in the game. I used this website called Freesound that I discovered in a YouTube Tutorial that I watched. I also tried to adjust the speed for the player but I still can't figure out how to make it roll smoothly and fast. Overall, I'm still glad that I still get to work on at least a few things in my game even though I was struggling at the start.

    Hey Flosie,
    I'm so sorry to hear that you had so many problems this week. If it is any consolation I'm in the same boat. I know you wanted to make a "decent game" as you said but from the looks of it it is that and it's more about the process than it is about the finale product. Also your game looks way better than me so well done on that Flosie.

    Hi Flosie, I read your OG post about your game a few weeks ago and I loved your game! I still do it's such a good idea! I read all the posts up to this and wow, I'm impressed! It's obvious you've put a lot of work into the game! I really enjoy your writing because you describe everything really well. I'm sorry to hear about all your problems! I feel you sometimes it just doesn't go your way, but you're trying your best and it's out of your hands! I love the look of your game; I would definitely be awful at it! What kind of music did you add? I really enjoyed it overall, I’m looking forward to it being completed and hopefully I will be able to play it! Best of luck! -Megan

    Hi Flosie! Your game looks really good and I really like the concept. It's really annoying when you follow tutorials and something still goes wrong.. Unity can also be a pain with the crashing :/ I'm glad that you were able to find a main menu tutorial that was easy to follow even if your progress was lost in the end.. but restarting that bit shouldn't be too difficult since you already have the tutorial on hand! It seems like you're making good progress overall though and good luck with the rest!

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.

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...

Feedback Stretegies

  Feedforward The first article that I read is called "Try Feedforward Instead of Feedback" by Marshall Goldsmith. He talks about how feedforward is more helpful than getting feedback. I learn that getting a feedback can have a negative effect to the person who is receiving it because they tend to get personal on their suggestions which some people cannot take. This is when Feedforward enters. Feedforwards is all about people listening to suggestions for the future then learn and help as much as they can. There are also eleven reasons to try Feedforward, but I will be only addressing some of them that I find personally works. 1. We can change the future. We can't change the past. Feedforward helps people focus on a positive future and not a failed past. This means that people who use feedforward does not concentrate on the mistakes of what the other person have, instead they give them advices on how to improve their work better for the future. I also think that giving peo...
