Tutorial 03

 




So I have finished my next Unity tutorial. It was fun as I finally got to add actual game-play apart from movement, which is health, although, You can't view health in-game just yet. I added environment hazards, enemies and health items. I am not being very creative with the level design just yet, I'm going to wait until I have more of the tutorials completed first
I wonder how complicated we're going to make the enemy A.I., however I should get my hopes up that it will be that complicated. As usual I did complete these tutorials faster than the estimated time. While I usually have no problem with the tutorials, there has been one problem that I have encountered time and time again that I have no idea how to fix, which I will show in the following screenshot.

I have no idea how to fix this problem as even when I copy and paste the code from the tutorial, it persists, there is only one fix I have found.
Change the follow code from this
Into this 


My only problem with this fix is that this fix is not mentioned as something I to do in the tutorial. They even mention that having too many public variables will cause bugs down the line, but they haven't said how to fix this problem. And I know there isn't a problem with the code because I've copied and pasted it in, just to make sure.

Anyway, I'm not sure if I will find the solution that the tutorials want me to use were this error won't come up, but that variable is not a public one, but it doesn't matter right now. I am looking forward to the animating the characters, so the game doesn't look like something you whipped up in Game-Maker in five minutes. Which is something I've done before and while it didn't bother me at the time, it bothers me that every sprite was a still image with no animation. So that's it from me for now and I'll see you next time.

Bye.

Introduction

 Hi, I'm Chris. I'm 20 years old and this is an introduction about me, as almost nobody knows anything about me. I'm very reserved, so here I plan on talking a bit about myself. One of the big things about me is Video games. I previously wrote about a few of my favorite video games. My first console I remember playing was the PlayStation 2 and two of my favorite games on it were The Simpsons: Hit and Run and The Polar Express Video Game. Gaming is such a big part of my life that my current favorite game, Minecraft, gave me my Internet last name from a joke that in Minecraft I attract creepers like a magnet. I am not good with horror games, but I'm trying to get better at it. I do like tycoon style games. One I've tried that I'd like to start playing again was called Prison Architect. I'm pretty flexible with Video Game genres except for a few. For example I do not like endless runner style games. I would rather a goal to race towards rather than try to run f...

Game Design

 What is a game?  Not an easy question to answer.  Games come in all different shapes, sizes, genres, etc. Games, from what I know are a means of entertainment. They are for everyone of all ages. There are some games that are targeted towards a certain group of people more than others, but in reality anyone can play any game they want to. Even though some people try to act like they can't. Making a game is not an easy task, especially video games, and it usually requires a team of people. A lot of people who try to make video games give up when they realise how much more work needs to be put into it than they thought. I know how difficult making a video game is so I'm not even going to try. I remember I tried to make a game, but I was put in a situation where no-one was showing me what to do, I didn't get the help I needed and it has ruined the chance of me trying to make a game ever again. I am okay looking through game files to look at different things such as texture f...

Unity Tutorial 02

Image
  I have completed the second Unity tutorial and I think I am getting the hang of it, although, I still worry about forgetting the code as I do have a lot going on in terms of work. My overall experience has been a lot better than it was when I first tried Unity. I got to give the player actual control in this tutorial which I think is a big achievement. One thing I've noticed is that it is taking much shorter to do these tutorials than expected, my first one, I forget to say, but it is estimated that it would take 200 minutes, while for me I feel like I did it in 45 to 60 minutes. This tutorial was estimated to take 50 minutes, I did it in just over 30 minutes. Although I did notice this time around I went back a couple times to make sure I was doing it right. There are some tasks I wasn't really interested in doing, such as putting comments in my code. Maybe that's just me, but I can usually work out what's going on just by looking at it without comments. But for the ...
