Unity tutorial 06

A screenshot of my game.

For this week, we have to design our game by adding a health bar at the top right corner of the screen. We also have to insert a dialogue box for the Non-Player Character which I found really cool as Ruby goes closer to it, the texts appear. This week's tasks are very relaxed because the instructions were easy and straightforward compared to the previous week. Since I completed the first tasks this week earlier, doing the last part was quick and I also found a video on YouTube called Unity 2D Beginner demonstrating the tutorials as well. I recommend everyone who's struggling with Unity Tutorials to check it out because it was very handy to have since we were used to watching tutorials in a video version last semester. I also encountered some problems during this week. Although, they were not major therefore I fixed them after a while.

Here are the lists of the things I have learned this week:

- I have discovered how Unity renders a UI, and how we can use Rect Tool to display the size and element better with multiple scales.

- I also learned how to utilize static members in scripts.

- Singletons are used to make your UIHealthBar script easy to access from anywhere.

-Raycasting is very useful in interactive applications as it helps you to detect things such as Colliders in a certain direction.

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

Exploring Game Design

Inspiration image about discovering new things We started this week's tasks by reading articles about defining what a game is to a more detail and in depth explanations. I used to define "game" as one or multiple players who works together to complete certain tasks with a set of rules that they must follow whether they win or lose. However if I put more thoughts into it, the definition gets more profound and brings me more in depth about what a game truly is. As I read though the first article that was talking about particular definitions of what a game is depending on how much interaction they have with it. For example, the more interest they have about games the more knowledge they can share with people. There is an interpretation from the article that I like based on a book called "Rules of Play" by Katie Salen and Eric Zimmerman. They explained that games are a "system in which players engage in an artificial, defined by rules, that results in a quanti
