10:10 CAWD Game Studio

The design phase is where requirements are transformed into concrete, detailed plans to help you write code. Given certain requirements, there could be many possible approaches to meeting those requirements. A design document will describe exactly how the program will be written, including details such as:

How your player needs to move
What kinds of input and output need to be displayed on the screen
How many levels / design need to be created to challenge the player
How to show your win / lose conditions

The Implementation phase begins once the program requirements and design are clearly understood and documented. It’s at this point where you can begin to write the code to meet those requirements. The design document provides guidance on exactly how to create the game, so you should reference what you wrote.

In most cases, this phase includes a development of a prototype (1 level with gameplay)

Most of the projects we programmed in class started at the implementation phase because the requirements and design were already determined by me ahead of time. I took time in my lessons to go through the planning and design phases.

This Week’s Deliverables:

Game Design Document – final draft by Friday
OBS Walkthrough of your games core mechanic – by Friday!
(obs is the software used to record your screen)
- Video footage of your core mechanic in action
- Include in the video the name of game
- Include a description of core mechanic
- Edit in Premiere and export as .mp4
- Shoot for 30 seconds total
- Filename: GameMechanic_OBS.mp4
Remember The core mechanic will usually be the purposeful interaction that occurs the most frequently. Jumping, collecting, sliding, farming, etc…..

5 Minute Scrum Meetings / Update Trello Boards

Remember a good meeting is quick and on target. What am I working on today, What help do I need. Those are the questions you should be responding to in your group or individually.

Want some code for a 2D shooter? – I was working on a simple example over the weekend. You will need to create an empty for the location of the bullet to spawn on your player. You will also need to create a prefab for your bullet. Two Scripts – One for the Player and one for the Bullet

Player Shooter

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerShoot : MonoBehaviour
{

    public float fireRate = .05f; //you can adjust the cooldown
    public Transform firingPoint; // location of where the bullet comes from
    public GameObject bulletPreFab;
    float timeUntilFire;



    // Update is called once per frame
    void Update()
    {
        if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0) && timeUntilFire < Time.time)
        {
            Shoot();
            timeUntilFire = Time.time + fireRate;
            //Time.time is the time at the beginning of the current frame in seconds since the start of the application 

        }

    }

    private void Shoot()
    {
       Instantiate(bulletPreFab,firingPoint.position, Quaternion.identity);
        
    }
}

Bullet Script

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class BulletScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    public float bulletSpeed = 15.0f;
    public float bulletDamage = 2.0f;
    public Rigidbody2D rb;
  
    void FixedUpdate()
    {
      rb.velocity = Vector2.right * bulletSpeed;
      Destroy(gameObject, 3); // this will destroy the bullet after 3 seconds
    }

    private void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D collision)
    {
        if(collision.gameObject.tag == "enemy")
        {
            Destroy(collision.gameObject);
            
        }
        
    }
}
