For this weeks Unity write up I focused on two particular videos that I feel helped progress my unity game overall. I made some progress in actually making things in unity over the last week such as the terrain , the road for the village on the map, the mountain and adding textures to my project. That is why I felt it was important to focus on the following things.

• Creating a character to play in the game with animations
• Adding items to collect in the finished project.

ANIMATING CHARACTERS in Unity 2018 Beginners Guide By Sykoo

Video one Here: The first video I watched was on how to make a character in unity for the player to play as. I found it helpful as it was a beginners guide and shows how using code can manipulate your character to make certain movements.

Mini Unity Tutorial- How to make A Collectible And Scoring System In C 

Video two here: For the second video it focused on  how to make a collectible/scoring system in Unity. Surprisingly this video was made by Jimmy Vegas the persons tutorials I used when making my game and hopefully will work out well for the assignment overall.

Overall I found that both of these videos had a lot to take in and would be beneficial in showing me what to expect when applying them to my project hopefully it will work out tomorrow when I try to implement them.

For this week I decided to do a refresher and go over the following Jimmy Vegas videos on moodle so that I could make more progress on my project overall , as I have been finding the videos difficult to follow. This included the following videos that showed me the following topics.

New Video I looked at

The video I chose to focus on for this blog was "Character Controller with animations- walk and attack - UNITY 3D- Quick And Easy"here. I chose to go with this video mainly due to me needing to make a character and to get an idea of how to make their animations move in order to chase the antagonist of my game. The video was helpful in giving me an idea of how to make this possible on a newer version unlike Jimmy Vegas , as some items can be a bit dated. I have noticed tho however that when it comes to the necessities for Unity 3D his first few videos seem t be Ideal for making my Ideas possible. That is about all I have to say for this write-up for now and I do feel I am beginning to get a bit better in the unity write-up and am looking forward to showing off some of the structures I have created using the Jimmy Vegas tutorials alone in this weeks project blog.
