2D Unity Tutorial 1

Ruby's Adventure  


2D Unity Tutorial screenshot of my work.


Hi guys! It is been a while since my last blog post here and I kind of missed writing here. 

My first ever blog post for this semester is about my Unity Tutorial in 2D. The tutorial for this week has four parts and each has different stages to complete. The first part was going through the layout of Unity again, but this time it is in the 2D version. The instructions were straightforward and the only difference from the 3D tutorial is that they are only texts and few demonstrations which I think is not bad as well. Sometimes, I have to look up video tutorials in some parts of the tutorials because it is hard to envision it. Especially when I started to design my game using the Tile Palette. Luckily, I found this helpful video showing how to use it.

I feel comfortable coding a 2D game even though this is my first time doing it. It is clearer and easier to understand than 3D in my opinion. Hopefully, I will still enjoy it as we keep working on it every week! The only problem I had this week was about the Unity Software itself because it did not save my first work of the tutorial which was frustrating since I was nearly done and suddenly all my work is gone. :(

This week I learned:

  • the basic information about the 2D game layout.
  • created my first C# Script in 2D.
  • converting an image in PNG file to the Sprite version therefore we could use it in our game.
  • using the Sprite version as a game object.
  • making the player controller move by coding.
  • how to create tiles using Sprites.
  • how to paint Tilemap using the Tile Palette.

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...

Time Strategies

Ancient clock As usual, I have been trying to start my last blog for this week, but because I procrastinate so much I never ended up doing it.  I feel like I always keep saying (I'll do it tomorrow morning), knowing very well that I am actually not a morning person!😂 . Anyways.... I am doing it again, moving away from the main topic. *facepalm* Today I will be talking about the time management which is ironic for me as I have been procrastinating before doing this blog. We were given multiple articles to choose from and read at least 2 of them to help us manage our time and keep our head on track with college work. Even though it is only the 2nd week of semester, we already have plenty of things to do, whether it is a tasks or labs. I've already found myself overthinking and feeling pressured to be able to submit the work on time. I also find it hard to stick to my planned timetable for this specific module that I created last week because there are tasks that kept coming. The...
