Journal Entry 5

Date: 08.04.2025

Activity:  

- Scripting walkthrough Part 3 and 4. Custom effect items and animations.

- Lecture 7 required watching (Juice it or lose it, The art of screenshake, Secrets of Game Feel and Juice, Celeste's Animation)

Notes:

Since becoming more comfortable with the scripting style in Unity/game dev in general, the scripting walkthroughs went even smoother than last time and introduced very useful concepts. The way to implement a powerup item is very intuitive, I will need it for my Project B. The animation features were fascinating to me, they seem extremely powerful.

Invested hours:

- Scripting walkthrough part 3: 1h

- Scripting walkthrough part 3: 1.5h

Outcome:

Build of the level with powerup mod (attached to this and available for download, available as embedded build until next HW build is up)
