Game Idea Research

Last week I talk about Games the ideas I like to do, after a bit more thinking, I think I know what idea I'm gonna do and I'm gonna talk about it in this blog. I think the game I would like to recreate is Terraria or at least the boss aspect about it.

I started researching into how would I go about it, Luckily our good old friend Jimmy Vegas has videos about how to create an rpg and more importantly how to create Boss AI. Jimmy Vegas' Video here. This might be able to help me and since this part of a series, the whole series might be able to help !

I also looked into an inventory system for my games, I found a blog about how to add an inventory system, which you can read Here. This will work well with my game, as it helps the player collect and keep items, so they can use them later.

My last mechanic is to a combat system, I look up a tutorials but the weren't many for 3d, I did found this One. Maybe Jimmy Vegas will have a tutorial on it, I'll need to look into it.

So What exactly is my game idea ? Well I was thinking of having a Final Boss that the players need to defeat but is too weak and said boss is all the way on the other side of the map. Maybe by having the map as a maze where the player must find and defeat the final boss.

Example Of  a level, not fully developed, taken and created by Me.

  1. Hey Sarah,
    I enjoyed reading your blog I like your idea about there being a boss that you have to defeat I also like that you have done research and sketches of what you are thinking of doing in your game I really like the maze part of the game and the fact that you have to go through a maze to find the boss and to defeat them maybe you could add some more obstacles in the maze that the player has to go through to defeat the boss just to make the game more interesting and harder also I would love to know how many levels would be in the game do they have to defeat this boss a few times overall everything you have done so far is really good and is well laid out anyway I will leave it there hope to read more about your game in your other blogs.

Unity tutortial 07

Another week, another unity tutorial this time I'm not following along with Jimmy Vegas' tutorial series and instead following another series of tutorial to learn how to put an inventory in my game ! In particular, this video  Unity Inventory UI Tutorial  which is a 3d inventory ! Thank god, every fucking tutorial I looked for inventory were for 2d games, not 3d. I did find a blog as well but when I did try to follow along, it didn't go so well so I decide to ditch that and found a 5 minute video. Working on my inventory, yes I'm using my JV tutorial world and turned off fade in, Screen shot taken by me. Now it's confession time and I thought I would say this : I miss Jimmy Vegas. Yeah his tutorial weren't great but some of these tutorial go really fast and you just have no idea what is going on. That's why for my next tutorial I did Jimmy Vegas RPG tutorial #024 Boss Ai  ! Unfortunately Jimmy's Video is part of a series and I don't really w...

First Playable

Project update time! So this week I've been working hard on the axe side of things, I wanted allow the player to be able to pick up the axe and swing it. However I learnt something that I hope wasn't true but sadly is, You can't reused scripts!! I tried to reused the Axe Swing script from jimmy Vegas and it work, but when I recreated it, it did work ! Unity you picky bastard you. Oh yeah I also made a building too, screen shot taken by Me. I also work on taking the axe out of the wall but had to focus on the ray-casting which was a pain in the ass because I completely forgot about it and had to go back to work on it. Honestly I've spent more then 3 hours working on this and while I'm proud of what I've done so far, I also sad because I really wanted to get to the first playable stage of the game but haven't be able to, Hell I still haven't gotten to the player able to take the damn axe out of the damn wall yet. This screen shot of my game does...

Unity Free Tutorials

Hello and welcome to my blog ! With My Non-swinging Axe.  This week I'm looking at unity tutorials for my game, that totally weren't sent by my mate Oisin, cheers Oisin !  To see if they can help my game. The first one is "PATROL AI WITH UNITY AND C#"   Jesus, someone needs to calm down with the CapLk.  A handy video that teaches a little bit of different coding but with little explanation of what the code does but personally I recommend muting the video and just because his voice is annoying, I'm half deaf and his voice was giving a headache ! So after doing the tutorial I came across a problem, the script doesn't seem to be working, there's supposed to be a speed box but as you can see there is none, even after I tried to listen to the video I couldn't get it to work. For some reason, the script not coming up right, screen shot taken by me. Moving onto the next tutorial, "How to make Doors in Unity"   yes I'm serious.  This tut...
