Unity Tutorial 02

Unity Tutorial 02


For this weeks unity tutorial, I watched two videos, the first one being called 'HOW TO MAKE A GAME FOR FREE #004-IMPROVE GRAPHICS'. I enjoyed watching this tutorial as it helped me with many tips and tricks. One thing that I found rather difficult about this was the coding. I have used coding before in my Web Dev last year and this year so I am quite familiar with it but I still found it hard enough at the start to get used to everything and where it goes but I eventually got the hang of it in the end.It's very difficult to understand how everything comes together to actually make the game work. I really like the realistic side of this tutorial that you can add to the game. When I added the wall into my game, I could use the right hand side of the window to play around with settings such as Metallic and smoothness of the wall to make it look more realistic.The second tutorial I watched was called 'HOW TO MAKE A GAME FOR FREE #005- RAYCAST'.The coding in this tutorial was pretty much the same as the first video, it was hard to understand at the start but I got used to it a bit at the end but I wouldn't feel extremely confident with it. Overall, I enjoyed using these new techniques although I find making a game pretty hard.

Who Is Aaron Hogan? My name is Aaron Hogan. I was born on the 1st of March,2000, which makes me 19 years old. I live in Clonsilla in Dublin 15. I went to primary school in St.Mochtas and went to secondary school in Castleknock Community College. I am currently in ITB in Blanchardstown studying Creative Digital Media, I am in year 2. I really enjoy the course and have found out new skills that i never thought I'd be able to do. First year was enjoyable and I made a good few new friends. My favourite module was Web Development as I found it interesting how much stuff goes on behind closed doors to make a website, and i also loved the feeling when you created your own website. Over the summer, I went to Portugal with my group of friends. It was the best holiday ever! Nothing better than being in the sun with your mates having a laugh and a few drinks around the pool.  I also went to a few festivals. The first one I went to was Longitude in Marley Park. I thought it was so goo

Prototype This week I have thought more about my game. I've decided off many people suggestion it that I should include a time limit in my game to make it more fun and exciting for the player when their collecting the items. I felt like I was getting better with Unity when following the tutorials but when I try to start my game off by scratch, I felt like I was kind of lost about where I should even start. I spent a good while trying to get my character to look like how I want him too but I found it difficult. Over this week , I will like to have got everything sorted but I think I need a lot of time during this week to get all my items and character and setting sorted and ready to go. I have a picture of the items and obstacles I want to include into my game: An image of the items/character/obstacles I want to make on unity. I will work on my Unity extra hard this week to make sure I get everything I need done and I will add my progress into my blogs straight away.
