Top Down Shooter Game

This is my generic Top Down Shooter game. Creating this game felt easier than the other games and this is due to having experience within Unity and coding. This experience made it easier to understand and follow the tutorial. There were relatively no issues when creating this game. Only minor issues arose such as mistakes leaving semi-colons. This however caused a minor error. With growing experience correcting issues, the minor errors were simple to fix.

I did however come across a new issue when building and uploading the project to Itch.io. The problem occurred once the game was completed on itch.io and ran. The game would play efficiently within the browser after build and run, however once uploaded and played within twitch, the game would load to near the end and stop. To fix this, I was told by a fellow student, that the problem occurred within a JavaScript after the files had been zipped.The way to resolve this error occurring was to go to Project setting within Unity, on the players tab, find the compression which was set to bolia and switch it to disabled. Once i had done this and re-uploaded the file, the game loaded and played successfully.

If I were to develop this game further, I would add standard assets and mechanics such as a scoreboard, varied enemy’s and speeds, different levels, a game over screen, death physics for the player, effects and sounds.
