Unity Tutorial 07

 Lesson 4.1

This lesson is going to be really handy when it comes to my game project as I'm making a sphere game. The instructor made it so the camera rotated around the island itself as well as moving the player. This tutorial basically described what different things we can do with the camera. 


enemy pushing the player off the map!

Lesson 4.2

In this tutorial we made it so enemies can spawn at random locations and they also follow the player around. I think I will use this mechanic within my game as I want my obstacles to push the player off the map so the "Bounce" physics material will work great. In this game the spheres were able to bounce off each other using this mechanic. 

Lesson 4.3

We learned all about powerups in this tutorial. I can't wait to try this out on my own prototype, I'm really happy that he covered this as I wasn't sure if I could find anything on youtube. So when the player hits the powerup (gem), whenever the sphere hits the enemy ball, it goes flying. After 7 seconds, the powerup disappears! We used prefabs and scripts to create the enemies and power-ups and this will be extremely useful in my Steer Clear game.

 Hi! My name is Anna Zurawska and I am a second year Creative Digital Media student.  My first ever year of college was a once in a lifetime experience and I'm so happy that I chose this course, it opened my eyes and it made me use parts of my brain that I didn't know were possible to reach. I never thought I would be able to find softwares such as Photoshop and Illustrator straightforward. I'm so happy how my assignments and projects turned out and I can't wait for what second year has to offer. I don't really want to talk about the pandemic because I know a lot of people are sick of hearing about it so I'm just going to show everyone my cat that I got over the break 😁😁.

The components of Game Design

What is a Game, Anyway? The following consists of key excerpts taken from an article by Ian Schreiber. It aims to discuss one's definition of a what a game is.  Schreiber (2009) discusses that many games have similar contrasting ideas. For instance, dots and boxes present the user with a simplistic objective of whoever attains the most boxes wins the game. The same mechanics apply to Tic-tac-toe. Therefore, it is important to clarify the differences between games. A substantial amount of individuals have clashing definitions in terms of what a game is, but all have equal elements. The components of an enticing experience can incorporate conflict, a set of rules, a problem solving task as well as an out of body experience yet all require interaction. A game does not essentially call for technology for the experience to be stimulating, there can be colossal subsets to a game. A game may be as straightforward as "tossing a ball around", as Schreiber (2009) states "play

Game Design Document

 I created my first ever Game Design Document, I felt like the reading task this week helped me a lot on my journey. Dundoc has some extremely useful game design document templates that are nicely organised into different titles such as technical, sounds, game introduction etc. I looked at other students game design documents whenever I was stuck on specific things and I found it 100 times easier. The template looks daunting at first but I promise it's not as bad as it looks! Here is the link to my Game Design Document Here is a picture of my game design document (might have the chance the name to my game title) I will make several changes throughout the semester so I can fill out as much information as possible. Right now I haven't made the game so when my vision comes alive I will include screenshots and information architecture.
