Overview

Summary

In this live session, you will program the player’s basic movement, including the code that limits that movement. Since there are a lot of different ways a player can move, depending on the type of project you’re working on, you will not be given step-by-step instructions on how to do it. In order to do this, you will need to do research, reference other code, and problem-solve when things go wrong.

Matter of Space

I have implemented the player’s control that allows the user to rotate the ship right and left and accelerate in the scene. When the player gets to the end of the screen, it appears in the opposite direction. This way we have an endless gaming space. Shooting is achieved with the space bar. I also had enough time to start changing the meshes into something more interesting (made in blender). Some particles were added as well as some sound effects.

Simple, but beautiful game.

Player Control

Added player and cars movement. Added camera following and rotation.

Great use of primitives here!

Now added my own background asset art work . still working on the player, projectile and enemy assets appearance

Player Controls Mouse Click

I've figured out how to make my character respond to mouse clicks. I'm having trouble with the boolean to get it to stop when it gets to its destination. The character stops moving, but the boolean shows it did not actually switch off.

my mini game

there are end of the game, score and a lot of obstacles

Basketball Player catches the ball

I've added ability to catch the ball when player collides with one. Also I added the reset position script which return player to initial position when the player leaves out off the ground.
