Past Night: An Action-Adventure game playable pre-alpha build.

So a little less then a year ago I started to teach myself how to script in C# and Java using the Unity3d Engine. I made this. The models, animation and textures are also all done by me. Please have a look and let me know what you think.

I Consider this “Phase Zero” an ongoing project. It’s more a proof of concept, proof that I can get something from a start to and end, then a “full game”. I learned a lot from doing this. Like that you really should plan the level out more a head of time instead of modeling it straight through as you go in MAX. My code style is much improved since this spaghetti mess as well. Also there is no sound

The next phase will be a whole new level, new enemies, improved animations and hopefully a boss at the end. I’m also looking into something for the level creation that would allow some randomization of your path through.

Until then feedback is very much wanted, please email me at bory513@hotmail.com or send me a message here

known bugs I’m working on fixing:

-odd Camera Zoom ins and shaking at times

-Sometimes Enemies can be knocked through walls

Here is the site for the web-player version.

Getting your game to work is a bit of a pain. First it didn’t load in the browser so I had to download the files from your site, and then I had to change the expected .unity file name in the html file.

But it was worth it and I like it a lot! The grafics sure arent eye openers but functional. The controlls feel very nice and responsive, the jumping is super percice! The combat is a bit frantic though and I ended up just running around aimlessly while holden down the attack button.

It seems your camera bug is caused by one of the player colliders intersecting the camera check ray. Might be wrong about this but I had similar glitches in games before and that was usually what was causing it.

Really hope this doesnt die and we’ll see more from this soon.
Good luck and have fun!

How many places are you going to post about your project?
You have it here and in the WIP. Still no pictures/video/nothing except a wall of text. You want people interested in your project, best to post pics/video to get people interested.
And do it in ONE thread.

thanks, I’ll keep that in mind for future posts. Was not really sure what one it would better fit in since its a link to a playable version of the game that’s a done level but there will be updates later with different levels and tweaks to the gameplay. Guess all subsequent ones will just go in this WIP one until its all final.

in fact how do I delete posts? I will remove this post from showcase and just keep the WIP one so I’m not cluttering things up

Live and learn.
