Code Design and Structure:

  • 1-Event system based. No system is dependent on another.
  • 2-Single scene with game objects handling to improve performance. Allows seamless transitions.
  • 3-Infinite single object background looping shader. Great for performance.
  • 4-Object pooling for infinite runner scenario saving performance and preventing lag.
  • 5-Fake movement allows better performance and longer battery life.
  • 6-Dynamic popup confirmation.
  • 7-No unnecessary public variables or methods. No singletons.

 

Highlighted Scripts:

  • 1-EventManager: Script allows the communication between scripts wit
  • hout the need of Singletons or direct references. This keeps every system isolated from each other, allowing easy code changes and expansions.
  • 2-ParallaxScroll: Script handles the illusion of movement for the background and foreground. By changing the Offset X position in the material, it creates the illusion of an infinite background without the use of multiple objects or movement of the background.
  • 3-ObjectSpawner: Script handles the spawning of random obstacles for the player to avoid. It includes the condition of possible places to spawn and “combos” such as placing a high wall (stack of 2 boxes) right after a trampoline (mushroom)
  • 4-VolumeSlider: Script handles the loading and saving of different channels in the master mixer, allowing easy read and write for the master, music and sound effects volumes.
  • 5-CharacterScript: Script handles the movement of the character and collisions with obstacles.
  • 6-GameManager: Script handles the scores and state of the game.


Challenges:

  • 1-Short Time to implement all basic functionalities of a short game and making sure it works on most devices as possible.
  • 2-Limiting myself to only use provided assets and native assets present in specified Unity version.
  • 3-Problems with SDK and Gradle when building for Android. Many different steps were applied to fix the problem.


Enjoyable Moments:

  • 1-Menu animations and seamless transitions between menus and gameplay.
  • 2-Ads and extra runs rewards.
  • 3-Unity Analytics for an older version of Unity
