Unity Tutorial 05

For this weeks unity tutorial things got very interesting. we finally learnt how to add weapons to a map and how how objects  can be picked up. sound effects were also thought in this tutorial although I did have a bit of bother trying to get my sound effects to load properly.

This weeks unity tutorials were really interested and added another dynamic to my blossoming game development skills.

The first tutorial that I attempted this week consisted of picking up an object which for this game tutorial was a gem. this can relate back to my final game as I want my character to hopefully pick up items. this tutorial was one of the easier tutorials to follow but it still thought some of the basics that I really did need to know. I actually found the coding in this relatively easy which was a surprise for me as I usually struggle putting code into unity. The way the character can pick up objects can differ a lot depending on what type of game you make but this is a good starting point in my opinion.

The second tutorial was where things started to go up a notch or two. In this tutorial you had to create an animated object that follows the player camera. I had a lot of struggle with trying to get the camera to follow the object and had to go through many help forums online but eventually I figured it out. I really felt great after I did this tutorial and it has definitely given me more confidence which I hope I can bring forward into my final game that I will make.

These two tutorials were a lot of fun overall and have thought me so much about weapons and camera movement that will be essential to my final game.

As you should already know I am doing the create with code side of unity this term and I really want improve my overall game coding skills. I am happy with progress so far but I still have a long way to go.                                                 Sound and effects The first tutorial was actually pretty easy but it was really enjoyable.

Hello guys and welcome back to my blog. For today's reading we had to continue from the research we were doing last week but thew difference was we had to a pply thematic analysis  to your resources and group common themes this week.   The first thing I did was read all the steps very carefully. I liked how it went into detail in discursive writing as that is something I am very passionate about, I used to have a blog years ago when I would be discursive and discuss manchester united games but I gave that up . I completely agree with the point about supporting your argument with evidence as if you do not how is anyone going to trust that what you said is credible  summaries to me are vital , I sometimes read the summary of an article first and that usually gives me a good outlook on if this article will be worth reading or not. today I went and found more resources online which I will add to my matrix. I...

Welcome back to my blog guys. I was kind of hoping there would be no bogs to do this term at all as they were pretty stressful last semester but I will get on with it and give it my best shot. This module actually sounds very interesting and I ma excited to keep researching and adding to my parts of the book. I spent way over 3 hours doing research for this. My two chosen topics are key components of game design and stages of game design. these are two topics that kind of excite me and make me want to dive into these blogs head first. the first thing I did was list all the who, what ,why ,where and when. these questions actually really helped me get a focus on what I was researching these are my answers who- I started my who by finding all about the people behind the games, I found out that first game was made in 1972 and it was all very interesting what- for the what part I went into detail about  what are the key elements in games . in my opinion a story and good visuals a...
