Yori
Responsibilities:
Tile Highlight:
Highlighting only tiles where the player can go. It has been done by using a ray trace of a mouse and highlighting itself is just changing between different materials
UI Minigame:
It has been done by mathematical calculations for the motion, and the position of the UI running point. The victory condition is to stop the running point at the coordinates of the red zone(was checking borders of the red zone)
Obstacle detection:
Highlighting only tiles where the player can go. It has been done by using a ray trace of a mouse and highlighting itself is just changing between different material
Snow Dash Racing
Platform: Windows
Language: English
Game Engine: Unity
Development status: Stopped
Responsibilities:
Co-op (Turn-based):
Take turns passing the level. It was made by linking the results to the player by index. And as soon as the player reached the finish line, the scene was reloaded, the index was changed
Player Progress & Save system:
Player progress
The database consisted of a list of classes(structs) linked to each other. Data is connected by the Player profile. The player gets information about his best time on each map after loading or registering the profile.
Save System
The point was to save profiles locally on the device. And use it in other parts of the project for UI and Co-op (turn-based). It has been done using JSON and scriptable objects in Unity
