Unity Tutorial 06

 For this weeks Unity tutorials we were tasked with the tutorials:

Lesson 3.3 Don’t Just Stand There (60 mins)

Lesson 3.4 Particles and Sound Effects (60 mins)

Challenge 3 & Quiz Balloons & Booleans (60 mins)

In Lesson 3.3 Don't Just Stand there we learnt how to use animation, to make our character run, jump and even die to add more life to the game. We also learnt how to time the running, jumping and death so that it would make sense in the gameplay. I really enjoyed this tutorial as I feel it will be super beneficial in creating my own game and think it adds a lot of life and realism to the game. It's also a lot easier than I would've assumed to add animation to the game which is a relief! 

In Lesson 3.3 Particles and Sound Effects we learn how to implement music, sound effects and particles into our game play. Another really useful tutorial that will benefit us in creating our own games as it adds so much life and dept to the gameplay. Just by adding a few sound effects and music the game really comes to life! Also with adding the particles you don't even realise how much of an affect on gameplay little tweaks like this have. We had to add music over the game as background music, sound effect for when the player jumps and crashes into the object and add particles to make it appear as if the player is running and when it crashes into the object smoke appears. These really bring the game to life!

Overall I feel these tutorials are really beneficial in creating our own games. The tutorials are getting easier to understand and I feel myself getting faster at completing them each week. I'm excited to see what else we will learn in Unity over the coming weeks and can't wait to see my skill level on the software at the end.
