 Hi there, I have some exciting news for you!  I have finally finished my game. Now the game isn't the way I planed it to be as at that stage I believed I can get more done that I'm capable of. Anyway the game works which is whats important.  So, basically whats new in it is that the player cant choose between guns, theres no main menu when you get on the game and the game is based on points rather than a timer with different amount of targets. Theres a set amount of targets which is 7. Each target gives 5 points and when the player reaches 35 points is game over. There is also a restart button. This is how the game looks with the score at the top right of the screen. The game isn't as pleasing looking as I wanted it to be but is playable. Honestly, I'm really glad I got everything to work to say the least.  For next week I will be making a trailer or promotional video for my game which sounds but interesting and hard at the same time. We will all find out how I got ...

 As we got to choice to do any tutorial this week I decided to re-do the one from last week as I wanted to understand more about keeping a score. As i don't have time to create the game I wanted I improvised and I'm doing my game based around points.  I will have the targets spread around the map and the player has to take them all out to finish the game. This will give the game a start beginning and end. I found this tutorial very helpful and easy to understand. I like how it shows you how to place a menu to restart the game. As for now I will continue working on my game as I have a good understanding on what to do next and how to do it.  Thank you for your time!  Denis.

 Hi all, today I have made a new game using Unity tutorials. This game is very different from the other games as it is a 2D game. Following the steps I have learned how to place the score of the players progression as they play the game. I found this really useful as I would like to add something like it in my own game. I have also learn how to make a restart button which I think is essential in a game. I think having that button gives an end to a game. That lets the player know that they finished the game with a certain score. The game I created today is some what like fruit ninja but different. Instead of cutting fruits you click on the different object that shoot up from the bottom of the screen.  This is a screenshot of the game with some of the game objects and the game over screen. This is an original screenshot of my own work. I hope you enjoy this weeks Unity tutorial and I shall see you in a few days. Thank you, Denis.

 Today I have worked on my game.  I have decided to not make the doors open and close but to leave them opened to I can manage to finish the game mechanics done. I really struggle to do it all as many tutorials use different versions of Unity. As my work today I have added particles to the gun as you shoot and for next week I want to add an animation to the gun as it shoots.  I also added the damage to the shots on the target. As for now, it takes 5 shots to eliminate the target.  I also changed the target as one piece as I really want to finish this game by the end of the semester. I want to have a playable game by the end of the semester. Making your own game is harder and takes so much more time than I anticipated. So to have a playable game I won't achieve my plan and game idea I had at the beginning. This image shows how the particles look when shooting. This is an original image of my work The following image is an image of how the door will be in the game. Thi...

Another week, another Unity tutorial. This week we finished on the game we done last week and done a challenge that was similar to the game. The challenge is a football game where you are the goal keeper. The goal keeper or player is a ball and he/she has to protect the football balls from going in the goal. For the Unity tutorial we have added more enemies and "powerups" to the game. We also wrote a code that multiplies the enemies by 1 each time you eliminate all enemies. The tutorials and challenges are starting to get easier now that I started experiencing game development by myself by creating my own game. I started to find it easier what to do and when to do certain things.  My work of the Unity tutorial . As you see this game is very simple looking but fun none the less. I really enjoyed working on this weeks Unity task. Now I have to work on my personal game so I shall see you later during the week. Thank you for stopping by, Denis.

 Today I will not talk to you guys about articles or videos. I will talk to you about my experience with this course. This blog will include things like what was my favorite reading, my biggest accomplishment so far in this class and what I think of the reading task. So to start off with my favorite reading this semester. I really enjoyed the reading task from week 3 . Those articles and the video were about what is a game. I really enjoyed this reading task as I found it interesting. It made me understand what a game is made out of, the purpose of a game and how people working in this industry see it.  Moving onto my game project. I have a mixture of feelings about it. Thinking of me making a game and doing the Unity tutorials got me very excited about the idea but actually starting it I wasn't so excited about the idea as I found it harder than I thought and I'm worried about how far I can go with this in the period of time I have. I still want to do the best I can and I won...

 Continue of creating my game... This week I decided to work more on the map, give the player a gun and start working on the script for the shooting and design my target. This week I found it difficult to find out a script for shooting and working fast. As I'm still learning I'm not the fastest at making games. I find it really hard to get this done in a shorter period of time. I have spend way too much time on little things for example. Original screenshot of my map. As you see I have added a door, a wall on top of the door and boxes. The materials I have used are from this page that is linked from the tutorial I said I will used in a previous post. The link to the website is here . It seems like an easy job to do but it took longer than you think to finish all of this.  Original screenshot of my work. The door was easy to make but it took a little time to place it right. Original screenshot of my work. The gun I have used is from this asset I have found in a tutorial I have...
