GameDevHQ | Day 13

Hey.

To be honest, I am having issues with the challenges. Most often I don’t even understand what needs to be done. Like it took me a day until I realized “LeftShift” doesn’t mean just left arrow… or does it? Anyway…

That’s why I finally decided to watch lessons from “Unity C# Survival Guide”. I have finished the first section “Variables” so far. Surprisingly, I learnt many new little things about variables and data types which I didn’t even think or notice before. Challenges are also helpful.

I will continue watching 1–2 sections every day, because understanding basics is really important to me. Otherwise it seems that I am just guessing when it comes to solutions.

As for challenges form the “Phase 1: Framework”, I tried completing the first three. The “thrusters” doesn’t seem to be working, but there are also no errors… So I am at the dead end. The other two: “Shield Strength” and “Ammo Count” are just very confusing so far. I did not make real progress with them today, but I will start tomorrow by trying to complete these two challenges one more time (and maybe fix the first one, too).

Well, good luck to me!
