It’s a game that redefined the modern open-world formula. It’s all about exploration, discovery, and freedom. As such, movement plays a fundamental role in making the game loop fun. There is no shortage of great movement mechanics, and the climbing system is no exception. See a mountain on the horizon? You can climb it. Need to scout the area? https://www.vitorcantao.com/post/gloo-cannon/ Wed, 23 Mar 2022 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.vitorcantao.com/post/gloo-cannon/ Introduction Prey (2017) is one of my favorite games. From the incredibly crafted non-linear level design to the player-centric systems and story, this game delivers a remarkable experience. There is, however, one game mechanic from Prey that stands out: the Gloo Cannon. Recreating game mechanics is always a fun and rewarding process. So, as both a tribute and a learning project, I made this little fun project. I hope you like it! https://www.vitorcantao.com/post/2-intro-to-game-development-in-unity-pong/ Mon, 03 Feb 2020 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.vitorcantao.com/post/2-intro-to-game-development-in-unity-pong/ Ball Physics Now that we have our paddle moving correctly, we can move to the fun part - the ball physics! Differently from the paddle, the ball will move independently, so we don’t need to worry about player input. It just needs to start moving and bounce whenever it hits something. For that, let’s once again create a script to add the behavior we want. Name it Ball and add it to the ball gameobject. https://www.vitorcantao.com/post/intro-to-game-development-in-unity-pong/ Mon, 20 Jan 2020 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.vitorcantao.com/post/intro-to-game-development-in-unity-pong/ Introduction Welcome to the first tutorial on Intro to Game Development! In this series, I aim to present to you the fundamentals of Game Dev by building fun games and well-known game mechanics. For this particular tutorial, we’ll be building Pong, a classic and simple game that will help us understand the basics. Math, physics, programming, algorithms and Unity knowledge will all be present throughout the tutorials, and I hope you can learn and enjoy your time.
