🔗 Project Vision Document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/156GKFkgeoR5s4o4MerlBipi90ecgu62k9No5QuvH0hA/edit?usp=sharing

Checkout and develop

Required: Unity 2019.3.5f1 or above with Android Build Support module (Personal license), GitHub Desktop
Recommended: Visual Studio Code

  • Clone this repository to your machine with GitHub Desktop
  • Start Unity, and select the project folder "bobaBlast" if prompted; this will open the project for editing
  • Make your edits - as examples, you may reposition items in the Scene view, change their components in the Inspector or modify C# scripts to attach to game components
  • You can test your edits in Unity by hitting the Play button - don't forget to change the scriptgameManger.cs to accept spacebar input instead of touch (see "Known Errors" section)
  • When you're done with your edits, make sure to save in Unity
  • Switch over to GitHub Desktop; your changes should be visible (note that changes to Main.unity are expected if you added or changed any game object)
  • Commit and push your changes 🍵

Build

  • Make sure that you have the Android Built Support module, with Android SDK & NDK Tools and OpenJDK installed with your version of Unity (these can be downloaded from the "Installs" menu on Unity Hub)
  • Follow these tutorials to build for both iOS and Android

Installation and Run (Mobile)

  • iOS: Refer to the "Testing the game on your iOS device" section of this tutorial
  • Android: The easiest way is to upload the .apk from the Build step to Google Drive, and download and install it on your Android device. You can also transfer it to your device via a cable connection and your computer's file explorer. Make sure the option to install unknown apps is enabled on your device.

Known Errors

  • Refer to this repository's Issues tracker for current bugs and features to be added in the future
  • A common mistake when building the app to your mobile device is to forget the code accepting touch input (lines 52, 53, 60 and their closing brackets) in the script ‘gameManger.cs` if it was changed to accept another type of input before
  • Vice versa, if you have issues accepting spacebar input when you checkout this project, check lines 54, 61 and their closing brackets and comment out the code accepting touch input
  • If the game crashes in Unity’s Play mode, make sure that the “Error Pause” option is disabled in the Console Window

Sources

  • Refer to the Sources tab of our Notion for a list of some of the assets and resources we used to develop the game
  • Code sources are also credited in commemnts in the scripts
