My experience with Unity Tutorial 04

 Finally!!!!!. I managed to attempt and comlete part 4 go the Unity tutorials. although there was a lot of code, the steps written out and DIY videos were a lot of help. 

This Tutorial was made up of 2 parts. Firstly there was the main tutorial called "Collision Decisions" and the second part was a series of challenges in the game, with no steps, only hints.

The Unity Tutorial 04:
This was the easier part of the 2 due to the step by step videos as well as a step by step transcript written out. What I had to do was write out code to make the animals spawn automatically without me pressing a command key.
I had ro also put in code that would cause the animals to disappear when they came into a collision with the pizza ( the projectile ). I had to code the animals to come from one part of the screen and disappear from another part of the screen. After that I finally had to code the game to say game over after an animal got past the player to the other side of the screen.

The Challenge:
Now for the challenge. This was the harder part. This was mainly because there was no step by step videos or step by step transcripts. The only kind of help we had was a few hints and a video of what the end product should look like.
This was quite hard because I am an audio and visual learner so not being able to see or hear what I have to do was tough.
Conclusion:
What I learned from this tutorial was how to have a game send the message "Game Over".  I enjoyed testing the game every time I updated the code. The most difficult part of this assignment was the coding in the challenge. What I am looking forward too is learning how to give the player more movability of the body.
Thats all until next time.
