This week there was no unity tutorials to complete, so I had free reign to choose some of my own. I chose to follow two tutorials this week that would help with the development of my game.
The first tutorial on youtube I followed showed me how to design an in-game timer. This was really useful because my game will need to display a timer at the top of the screen during play. I didn't have any problems making the timer because the tutorial was really easy to follow. I made a text box and then copied the script from the video.
The Timer From Tutorial 1
The second tutorial showed me how to make a different timer. This timer ticks down in the form of a linear bar. The bar gets smaller as time passes. This was similar to the first tutorial but the code required was different.
Progress Bar From Tutorial 2
Overall I found both of these tutorials beneficial, they were easy to understand and to follow. As of yet, I'm not sure which timer will look better in my game. I am going to test both timers in my game before making my final decision. I can change the colour and style of text so it fits the cartoon look of my game.
