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.

Introduction to a future Animator 😁

If you've been reading my blog post since the day I started, you have read my first introduction. However, I haven't really talked about myself. So in this post, I will along with questions from the tasks we have given. 😁 My photo from last year First of all my name is Flosie Jane Sazon, I am currently a 2nd-year student studying Creative Digital Media at the Technological University of Dublin located in Blanchardstown Campus. I'm 20 years old (even though I don't look my age 😂) and I have been living in Ireland since I was 13. This course wasn't actually my first choice even though I love art. My first choice was something about business and language which was way different from what I'm doing now, but I'm really happy that I'm doing what I love. Even though there were a lot of times convincing my parents but everything went well in the end.😂😂 What was the best class you took last semester? why? Even though I enjoyed Web Development and Design Proc...

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...

Tech-Tip: Animated Gif

Hi guyssss! How you keeping with the modules? I feel I haven't been doing blogs for ages hahaha. I really miss writing in a more friendly vibe blog since we were told to write in an academic style, I've been trying to do it for most of my blogs. Since this is just a simple task, I decided to write it comfortably. For this blog, I made a quick and simple animated gif where I compiled some of the images that I took in college during our photography lab. I decided to use these images because I really miss going to college and even though I always get tired walking up the hill hahaha. I always love the sunset view from our campus and it's one of the things I missed apart from hanging out with my friends in C-block.😭 Now I feel sad reminiscing my college days when we can actually go there hahaha. Anyway, I hope you are doing well during the lockdown. Don't overwork yourself too much! Watch anime or Korean drama and I promise you, you will not regret it!! You should try ...
