📢 General Information

The construction project of the Bandung Bondowoso temple was a great success due to the Android application created by his genie. As a result, he gained immense wealth. Confused about how to spend his fortune, Bandung Bondowoso decided to assemble a PC so that he could play AAAA games. However, he felt that AAAA games did not meet his expectations. Therefore, Bandung Bondowoso asked for help from his genie to create a new game.

The genie of Bandung Bondowoso had previously tried to create a game from the Unity tutorial that is also available here. Therefore, the genie of Bandung Bondowoso decided to modify the game to make it more challenging.

👨🏻‍💻 Tech Stacks and Platforms

Unity | Visual Studio | Android

📖 Libraries

Here's list of libraries that used in this project.

Libraries	Purposes
TextMeshPro	Enables advanced text rendering with better performance and visual enhancements.
Timeline	Creates cinematic sequences and animations with control over cameras, sound, and transitions.
Unity UI	Builds user interfaces within the game, including menus, buttons, and health bars.
Newtonsoft Json	Parses and manipulates JSON data for saving game data or working with external sources.
Version Control	Tracks changes to project files over time, allowing reverts and collaboration.
Visual Scripting	Creates game logic visually with nodes instead of writing code.

And some Unity core libraries like Unity, UnityEngine, System, and many more!

📱 Bonus 1 - Build to Android

Android View #1	Android View #2
Android View #3	Android View #4

Here is how we build the Survival Shooter: The Sequel into Android:

1. Open the Unity project.
2. Configure Build Settings: Go to File > Build Settings.
3. Switch Platform: In the Build Settings window, select "Android" from the platform list and click "Switch Platform" to configure settings for Android.
4. Set Minimum API Level: This determines the range of Android devices the game can support. Choose an appropriate level based on target audience (at this game, we set it to 24).
5. Build and Run (or Build): Click "Build and Run" to deploy the game to a connected Android device or simply "Build" to create an APK file.

⌨️ Bonus 2 - Multitype Input

Since the game need to be run smoothly on Android, we also prepare and adapt to be able to handle touch screen interface. Unity offers two main approaches for handling touch screen input in Android game:

1. Legacy Input System: This is the traditional method and works well for basic touch mechanics.
2. New Input System (NIS): This is a more modern and powerful system offering greater flexibility for complex input handling.

In this task, we choose New Input System. We enable it by go to Edit > Project Settings > Input System, then check the box next to "Input System Package" and click "Play Mode" to enable it within the project. Here is the snippet on how we use it

PlayerShooting.cs

#if !MOBILE_INPUT    
    // If the Fire1 button is being press and it's time to fire...
    if (fire.IsPressed()) {
        // ... shoot the gun.
        Shoot();
    }
#else
    // Detect the user touch point
    foreach (var touch in Touch.activeTouches) {
        if (touch.startScreenPosition != Vector2.zero) {
            if (touch.startScreenPosition.x > Screen.width / 2 &&
                touch.startScreenPosition.x < Screen.width - Screen.width/7) {
                // ... shoot the gun.
                Shoot();
            }
        }
    }
#endif

💣 Bonus 3 - Skill Cutscene

Skill Cutscene View #1 (Desktop)	Skill Cutscene View #2 (Android)

We implement the skill cutscene trigerred when the player throw the grenade using right click on mouse. To create the skill cutscene, we are doing these steps:

1. Create a Timeline object: We add this Timeline object to the Main scene. This will serve as the container for the animation sequence.
2. Attach Player Animator: Drag and drop the Player object onto the Timeline object. This will connect the Player's Animator to the Timeline, allowing us to animate the player's actions.
3. Create the Grenade Skill Animations' Clips: In the Timeline window, we create the clips for the skill cutscene. The animation is inspired by this Feeding Frenzy game animation.
4. Modify the Clips' Position in the Timeline: Customize the animation by adjusting and positioning the clips in the Timeline according to our needs. This allows us to create the desired animation sequence. Here is the animation.
5. Integrate PlayableDirector: Add a PlayableDirector component to an empty GameObject in main scene. This component will control the playback of the cutscene.
6. Trigger Cutscene with PlayableDirector: In the PlayerShooting script, when the player throws a grenade, call the PlayableDirector's Play() method to initiate the cutscene.
7. Freeze Enemies before Cutscene: Before the cutscene plays, add code in the PlayerShooting script to disable enemy movement and interactions. This will ensure enemies remain frozen during the cutscene.
8. Unfreeze Enemies after Cutscene: After the cutscene finishes playing, add code in the PlayerShooting script to re-enable enemy movement and interactions. This will allow enemies to resume their normal behavior.

Here's the detail implementation.

🥽 Bonus 4 - AR Version

AR Version View #1	AR Version View #2
AR Version View #3	AR Version View #4

In order to make the game more immersive, we also make the AR version. The implementation of AR is using the following additional libraries.

Libraries	Purposes
AR Foundation	Unity's framework for building augmented reality (AR) experiences across different devices.
Google ARCore XR Plugin	Extends AR Foundation to leverage Google's ARCore technology for specific AR features on Android devices.

Here is how we use AR for camera tracking and input manager.

AR Session for input manager in AR Version.	XR Origin for background based on camera-tracking.
