    As somebody who has been struggling in vain for like 6 years to learn how to use Unity, the simplicity and elegance of this is inspiring and makes the whole game dev thing feel ever so slightly more accessible.
    I have a few questions:
    How did you link the line renderer to the edge collider? Are you detecting collisions with kinematic rigidbodies or raycasting? Also, are the splash screen and death states handled by the scene manager or are they manually scripted?

    • @PolyMars
      @PolyMars  5 лет назад +7

      Thanks! I'm really glad I was able to explain everything well.
      To make the edge collider connect the two players, I made an array of the collider's point positions and set one point to the man's position and the other to the dog's position.
      For collisions I used kinematic rigidbodies and triggers with OnTriggerEnter2D().
      The game is made up of 3 scenes. Choosing to retry the game simply reloads the game scene while choosing "No" loads the menu scene. The splash screen is a separate scene loaded on startup that is manually scripted using timers.
      I hope this helps!

      @@PolyMars It does help! I think my main problem with Unity so far is that I keep overcomplicating everything. Right now I'm restarting one of my ongoing projects from scratch and trying to keep it as simple as possible.

    • @PolyMars
      @PolyMars  5 лет назад +5

      That’s awesome! I have a tendency to over complicate things as well, as usually the first solution I think of to a problem isn’t the most elegant solution. Good luck on your project!

    • @mikaxms
      @mikaxms 4 года назад +6

      If your struggling with finishing a game, then make a simple game. Like a clicker game, pong or an endless runner. It might feel like that’s too easy, but finishing something helps to give you perspective on things. You can also keep expanding on them, just make sure to finish them before you expand.

    Hi, I'm a high school kid trying to learn how to develope games. I want to eventually do what you are doing to start out. How did you learn how to get so familiar with C#? I got a book to learn about Unity and a little C# but I want to learn how to be so familiar with it that i can fix any issue like you do in your video.

    • @PolyMars
      @PolyMars  5 лет назад +16

      I think the best way to get familiar with Unity is by practice. Just playing around in the engine and making small games helped me learn the basics of programming and how to apply it when making games. Reading books and watching tutorials can definitely help too, but I think practice is key with anything and that over time you’ll naturally get more familiar with Unity and game development. Good luck!
