This week, after lots of feedback from my classmates and some of my own ideas, I was able to polish my game up a lot! I have a bunch of things I added to the game. First, I edited the background so there wouldn’t be lines because of tiling issues anymore. This make the game play look a lot smoother. I then added a particle system to my game to look like it was snowing. This looks super cool while playing it! Next, I was able to add a restart button that allows the player to play again right away instead of closing out and reopening the game to play again. Lastly, and in my opinion most importantly, I was finally able to get the score system working and the score shows up on the scoreboard in the game. It resets to zero every time the player restarts. I will attach a video of the final product here, enjoy:
I’m happy I was able to add things to polish the game up. It looks a lot better than what it looked like when I finished it last weekend. I’m also looking forward to doing my next project in 3D to test my skills and learn even more!
OMG!! The snow is amazing. It makes the scene feel so much more immersive. The game is playful and reminds me of the older side scrollers we used to play in the arcade. Awesome job.
