Tools Development
During development, I primarily concentrated on designing captivating AI enemies for players to face. Additionally, I dedicated time to building efficient tools for game designers and optimising systems for seamless interaction with Unity's audio and animation features.
Enemy AI & Behaviour
-
Each enemy type within the game inherits from a common base class.
-
The base class holds all the references for each enemies class-based state machine.
-
This code snippet showcases the enter state logic for the boss attack state.
-
Upon entering the attack state, the boss randomly selects an attack before performing it and then returning to its chase state
Audio Programming
-
This code snippet showcases some functionality of my audio manager.
-
As there will only ever be one sound manager instantiated at a time, I make use of Unity's singletons
-
This PlaySound() function is able to be called from anywhere in the code base.
-
The manager creates an audio source object with a specified audio clip (referenced using an enum) and plays the designated sound.
Tools Development
-
I designed the audio manager to be as easy to interface with for designers.
-
Designers are able to change the audio assigned to each sound effect by simply droping in the new audio file within the Unity inspector.
-
I also created a tool to allow designers to experiment with the game's lighting.
-
A designer is able to adjust the colour, intensity, and lerp of a light all without touching any code
