Unity Tutorial 02

 Tutorial 1.4

Learned plenty of new skills that focus on giving the player more control over the game such as the input manager and allowing the player to input up to make the vehicle go forward and down to make the vehicle go backwards. We learned how to rotate the vehicle while maintaining a forward motion/stance. We made the scripts a little less messy and gave them more comments, learned about empty game objects and how to nest game objects within them such as the obstacles. I'm really proud I finished my first ever unity tutorial with such ease, I'm excited to get into more.

Challenge 1 

This was a lot of fun to do and I tried my best to not look at the hints further down the page. All in all, I was quite pleased with my knowledge on how far I got the only issue I did get confused by was actually getting the planes speed under control but I soon realised my mistake. Coding the propeller was fun too I didn't think I would get it the first time but I did. I think something id love to look into is making a plane in unity move in all 360dg I think it would be a fun little side project.

An introduction to... me?

Hi, my name is Gavin Dwyer, I'm a wannabe film/music director who has a passion for photography and web development. I currently live in Co. Meath with my family as I attend college in TU Dublin Blanchardstown. My hobbies include Scouts, rugby, golf, and photography. In my spare time, I tend to find myself watching movies/tv-shows or playing video games. I'm excited to start my 2nd year of college especially with everything going on in the world over the summer like Covid-19 and wildfires it been stressful but now that college is back I can continue with my drive for media studies and college as a whole. Over the break, I've spent most of my time playing games such as Team Fortress 2, Overwatch, Battlefront 2, Garry's Mod, and Among Us. TF2 and GMOD are by far my favourite games as I have over 5000+ hrs in both games. Both games released back in 2007 and still currently have over a few thousand active players. If I'm not playing a video game I most likely am watchin

Game Design

What is a Game, Anyway? I've personally always wondered what actually makes the fundamentals of a game or the basic features to which something can be called "A Game", and not until I read an article called "What is a game any way?" did I truly understand. The article itself is quite interesting and while it did take me a while to finish, it did teach me quite a few things such as the fact that everyone has a different point of view on what a game really is, what classifies as a game, some people think of video games or board games first but the list is endless really.  While reading this article you can begin to understand that a lot of games have similar ideas that contrast each other or relate in either one or two ways. The most eye-opening point made in this article to myself was one made by Schreiber who talks about the relationship between "Play" and "Games" where technology is not even needed to help enjoy a game of fetch or "play

Game Idea Research

Nightmare Creature   Last weekend we were asked to begin our research on game ideas, possible games we could code within unity and showcase to our class. We were asked to come up with 4 unique ideas, here is mine: 1. Horror Puzzle Game 2. 3D Sphere Game 3. Tower Defence Game 4. FPS Shooter Game Horror Puzzle Game This week we were asked to pick one of the four ideas that we would focus on for the rest of the semester, I decided to go with my first the idea and possibly my favourite, a Horror Puzzle Game. My love for horror games is massive and I hope I can translate that love into making a good functioning horror game myself that I’m proud of, I have tones of knowledge on the subject of horror games like what mechanic and game functions should be in place, and how lighting/game design should look. This game idea interests me the most and I think ill be able to focus in on it for the rest of the semester with ease thanks to the crazy amount of unity tutorials about horror game
