I have finished my first Unity project,as a training exercise
I have done this with the aid of the book "Learning C# by Developing Games with Unity 5.x" by Greg Lukosek. HERE
The book was a great start to the subject - his approach is to provide all of the 'assets' required to make a game, and walk the reader through the process of coding. Assets in Unity are things like art, animations, and properties attached to on-screen objects such as gravity, on-screen position and colour.
After completing the book I have made some additions to the game as he left it:
- Increasing speed of my character, "Jacob", after each level segment
- The ability to double jump
- Two extra types of coins: red (which cause death), and green (which cause Jacob to jump especially by reflex).
- Ten or so designed level segments which are generated infinitely ahead of Jacob as he runs to the right of the screen.
I will make the game available to download in a special Unity section of this site soon.
controls: left click on the mouse, or space bar, makes Jacob Jump. That's it
