Roughing out a concept in medium and soft Sculpey on armiture. A "Retriever"from "The Community".

So it has taken a lot of time Just to get to this point in creating a video game in Unity. Part of the Challenge is that i'm learning from 2 different Unity tutorials.  In that scripts don't always fit neatly in to what I want to do. My Game Controller script partially functions. The touch control's for Android phone are not functioning yet however, what a feeling to see your game build  onto your phone! I downloaded Androids SDK (software development Kit), And then Unity or the SDK program told me I needed Java next. I got a nifty web page stating I was being watched after all these downloads. After running a security scan, I put my phone into developer mode, which is always scary.  Its what I'd imagine unlocking a phone might be like.  Next I ran a  'build' for Android out of Unity and it Spat out a. apk file (android application file). After transferring/finding the file on my phone and opening it  up, voila it worked or at least displayed, so excited. 

Okay, so what is new? Teleport is new. Its more inline to the game i'm making, but I kind as liked my  camera rig from before. We'll See if I revert once I get farther along.  I added animation to the skull, its subtle but "scary" according to Littlest. Animated shields with a convex mesh Collider, messed around more with particles and materials for  stars. I decided to have the Boss move towards the player, as an added Hazard. ~Chris~

At first glance it does not appear that much has changed since the last post, but I assure you it has.  First off I finally got the video capture software to capture audio, so enjoy the numerous clip elements now.  I changed out the bullets to bolts that were given as part of Unity's Space shooter tutorial.  I managed to tweak the Tankshooting script to enable Instantiate on 3 different FireTransforms so our ship can fire 3 bolts at once.  Added Destroy by Contact script from Space Shooter script.  I added more stars through a particle system.  A spawning system has been incorporated through a Game controller script for the © Scorpflys'.  The Background music was purchased from Maciej Kulesza, here at: ​https://soundcloud.com/maciejkulesza.  Shields are next as well as keeping score.

I've managed to incorporate shooting elements and explosions.  My little © Scorpfly has the same Java script as the skull with movement speed added instead of just rotation.  Hard to juggle things that don't apply.  Having trouble recording audio with Expression Encoder, but rest assured their is music and sound effects as well.

There is a type of N-cloth in Unity I plan on using for the wires which will give them some motion.  Normal, Diffuse, Emissive maps done.  Off to make a specular map next!

I'm very excited about this.  I was able to export out an .fbx file with animation and import it into Unity.  This is a video capture from Unity.  I had some challenges with this, scene cleanup helped with the textures.  Animation wouldn't take for a while in the game, but did in the preview.  Loop was one easy checkmark I remembered from all the deleting and button mashing to get it to work.  There were numerous other logged errors to get around.  I just changed the background in my Main camera under skybox to blacken it out.  The ©ScorpFly will be one of the Enemies in the game.

So Unity's Roll a Ball game tutorial is all done.  If your interested in learning or just want to see what I referenced click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFlh8pTf4DU&list=PLX2vGYjWbI0Q-s4_lX0h4i2zbZqlg4OfF

​ I just used my assets instead of the balls and some cubes.  Next I think I will implement Unity's "Tanks" game tutorial and just use my ship and skull instead of the tanks.  They've got a great Orthographic camera rig they are using as well as some cool explosions.
