BETA Things Have Happened In My Life.

So.. I have spent many upon many hours this weekend on several 'Unity Free Tutorials' from previous blog posts, and I have struggled a lot. I have tried to implement timers, etc, into my game and absolutely none of it has worked. I cannot figure out the coding, the errors, or C# in general, and the tutorials don't help with the confusion as they aren't exactly what I wanted to achieve.

One issue I've had for example is the timer. I've followed around five different tutorials on this particular one as I really wanted to put it onto my game. Each one I've found is a bit different from what I want and doesn't fit the game. Except one, and when I tried to follow it, '(Sprites?)' were introduced and I could not get any of it to work at all.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, so therefore, I have absolutely no idea how to fix it. Considering the tutorials I researched were 'extras' that I thought could fit my game nicely, they aren't necessary to the functionality and I already have a coin-counter, etc, so I've decided to only add some more levels so that it isn't as short. Unfortunately, that's the best I can do.

Also, I haven't managed to fix the textures but I saw a comment on one of my posts about how it may not export that way so hopefully, that's true!

See you at presentations :)

Introduction to a Future Web Developer.

Hey! This post is a little bit less of the 'fun talk' than discussing my favorite game, but it will still be very interesting. I will be discussing ME! Nothing too personal, I will be focusing on the professional side of my everyday life. At the moment, college takes up most of my time, as you would expect. I am currently in my second year of study in Creative Digital Media and so far, I'm loving it! We aren't really too long into Second Year for me to give a fully-fledged opinion on it, but I can definitely share my thoughts from First Year.  First Year was hands-down the quickest year of my life. It is crazy how different your life feels when starting in a completely different environment, especially after coming straight from secondary school, like I did. When you're finally studying and working on something that you want to be doing, you have fun and time really does fly. I definitely know that I'm in the right course. My favorite thing about

Alpha

So, I've managed to complete the three levels that I hoped to complete. I have added a skybox to the levels also, and have changed the color of the text on-screen (the coin-counter) from black to white, as the black text blended in with the background. My Own Screenshot Of The Updated First Level One issue I'm having is with the materials and textures. I have no idea what's happening with them. All materials are now showing up as the default plain white (they have a pink hue in the screenshot due to the skybox), and it won't allow me to add the textures or materials that I intended to use, and that were used in my first playable. Also, when you play the game, and progress to another level, this happens: My Own Screenshot Of Level 2 For some reason, the hue then changes to kind of a beige color. This only happens when you begin on a certain level and progress to another one during gameplay. If I were to begin gameplay on Level 2, for exampl

Game Brainstorm

My brainstorming session has gone a bit better than I expected. I've come up with some interesting ideas that I think will be quite fun to experiment with and create. 1. A horror game. 2. A mystery game. 3. A maze game. 4. An obstacle-course game. Although I don't play games, and barely ever have, I feel like I have some fun ideas for games to create. A Horror Game: I'm a big fan of horror movies, so this is where my inspiration for this idea has been drawn from. The idea in my mind is a character, completely lost and confused in a field of some sort, they start to explore and find paths to follow. On these paths, they find items that trigger memories about why they're there and how they got lost. They eventually arrive at a barn, where they explore some more and find unrecognizable corpses around the area. They then get hit over the head with something, wake up with fully realized memories and an instinct to escape. (I haven't fully developed the story bu
