Carrots (AKA Enemy) :
This script manages the behavior of different types of prefab enemies in a Unity game. The enemies respond to player interactions (touch inputs) and perform actions like moving, disappearing, and affecting the player's score.
In this script, I have define out three types of enemies:
-
Normal: Standard behavior with basic interactions.
-
Golden: Special behavior requiring multiple interactions to pull it out.
-
Bomb: Hazardous type that penalizes the player when interacted with.
For the variables, I have set their move distance that make them pop out from the ground and disappear time that make them go back to the ground
And the first type will be the normal one and all touch count for the carrot are 0. This can tracks how many times the enemy has been tapped or interacted with by the player.
In the start function , it initializes the enemy's behavior when it spawns.
In the update, here will check on the enemy type, if it was the normal or the black one, a single tap is enough to interact with these enemies, else for the golden one needed 3 times only will calls the CheckTouch method to determine if the touch hit this carrot.
In here does the check touch function that it will check the player is it tapping on the carrot
If yes then it will increase the touch count +1
And it will start checking the enemy type
If it was the normal one , it will increase 1 point in the Score Manager and play a pop sound in the Audio Manager and play the function of move and disappear
Else for the golden one, if is not tap 3 time, it will not increase the point but it will move up a bit to let the player know that it was pulling up the carrot
But if was tap for 3 times, it will increase 5 point for the player and play a pop sound in the Audio Manager, later it will play the function of move and disappear
But the bomb is special that it work like the same as the normal , but it will decrease 3 points if u pull it out
The provided code snippets (CheckClickDelay, MoveUp, MoveAndDisappear, and Disappear) are coroutines, that the checkclickdelay check on the enemy type was been tap of the need they require. If no they will disappear in 2 seconds
For the MoveUp is for the purpose of makes the carrots move slightly upward as part of the interaction effect.
For the MoveAndDisappear serve for the purpose of makes the carrots move slightly upward as part of the interaction effect.
And for the Disappear, it serve as making the carrots move downward and disappear if not interacted with in time.
Spawner
In this code, carrot spawn location was set and it will spawn out the prefab of the carrot.
The first carrot will spawn after 5.5 seconds and the game start. To increase the difficulty of this game, i set that after a moment the spawn rate will go faster and faster until reach it limit.
Having the dictionary is to prevent the carrot spawn at same location and having queue to holds a list of enemies waiting to be spawned.
When it start, it will Starts the coroutine SpawnItemWithInterval to handle continuous spawning of enemies over time
This SpawnItemWithInterval does to :
-
Iterates through available spawn points and queues carrot for spawning.
-
Gradually reduces the spawn delay until it reaches a minimum limit.
-
Ensures no enemy is spawned at an occupied spawn point.
-
Adds special spawning logic every 60 seconds to spawn multiple enemies.
The SpawnEnemy is to handle the carrots at random available spawn points.
The GetEmptySpawnPoint is to retrieves the first unoccupied spawn point.
The EnemyDestroyed is to clears a spawn point from the occupied list when a carrot at that spawn point is destroyed.
Timer
This timer act as a countdown system to let the game end in the 120 seconds.
When the timer reach to 0, it will stop the spawning system and go into the game over panel to check the result
Pause Menu
When the pause menu code is run, it will stop the timer and the game music, later it will go to the pause panel.
When resume back it will close the pause panel and go back to the game
In this code also handling the restart button, main menu button and start game button
Score Manager
In this code, it work the way of remember the score, do the math equation and so it out to the player
Audio Manager
The AudioManager script handles background music (BGM) and sound effects (SFX) for your Unity game. It centralizes audio management, allowing for dynamic playback and easy integration across scenes.
