Unity Tutorial 05

-
This week I looked at two Unity tutorials. The first one looked first at adding text with the usual customization such as font size and style, then using the text to make a dynamic UI into the game, which was making text display on an object to tell you what key to press, in this case press E to take a floating gem in the game. The text itself wasn't difficult but I ran into a couple of problems with the C#, which was needed to make this text work with the gem and to make it disappear when you pick it up.

C# to make the gem disappear and the UI work...

The second tutorial was a lot more interesting, which teaches you how to add some simple weapons into the game. It employed many things that I did in previous Unity tutorials and it was nice to refresh my memory with it. This tutorial was about adding much more environment, for example, making a fence which wasn't too difficult.
Using a model asset I added a simple axe to the game. It was really cool to do this because I think I will definitely need to add weapons to the game I want to make as it's an action/fighting game.
The axe model underwent some simple processes I've become familiar with such as rotating it and resizing it.

 I liked both of these tutorials but definitely found the second one to be more appealing!

Introduction

This is a little introduction post for this blog as I continue my course into the semester. I think CDM has been interesting so far. It's quite different from last year. Last year, the best class I took by far was Photography, it was so fun and I loved taking photos in such an artistic manner. I loved going into the studio and using the flash and playing with the lighting and setup. It was a really interesting module and I'm a bit sad we don't have it this semester. I'd definitely love to do some more photography again because it let me express myself in so many unique ways using various techniques taught to me in the class. I'm not sure I'd like a career in photography after I leave college but I will say its very fun so far. This is a very early photo of my cat Bella I took when starting out with my DSLR camera. I'm glad I take so many pictures of her because I like to look back on them! My goals for this module is to be competent enough in Unit

Final GDD

This week, I have finalized by GDD ( https://www.dundoc.com/project/4800/9ci821tfu4 ) and made a good few changes to it. I have expanded on a lot of concepts that I have written about, and updated the concept art. I have also included new pictures which give a better image of the kind of game I want to make, including the atmosphere I want to invoke in the game. I used this picture to show the sort of scary, moody atmosphere I want to implement into the game. I also made some changes and added to the gameplay descriptions, giving more specific and detailed explanations.

This week I have created a much more in depth GDD, expanding on my Game Vision Statement. I put a lot of thought into creating this vision. I have included information such as the controls, what kind of art style the levels will have, and weapons I have done this on a site called dundoc.com which specialises in creating game design documents. I have laid out the necessities of the game, beginning with the story and characters and continuing on into the art, levels, and gameplay mechanics. Here is the link to my own GDD:  https://www.dundoc.com/project/4800/9ci821tfu4 My Game Design Document.
