Flappy Bird Clone Devlog


This game was Game 1 of the 20 Game Challenge (https://20_games_challenge.gitlab.io/challenge/).

One of the challenges for this game was to arrange the background to loop while it was moving right. Yes, I wanted to be a little rebellious and have my game mirrored from the original version :)  The other challenge was getting to use Unity's new Input System mechanism, even though the game used two buttons (Jump and Start) I wanted to have the option for it to be playable across mobile, console and web browser.  I used spawning mechanism to generate obstacles and for increasing difficulty the obstacles were getting generated increasingly quicker. 

I did not work on sound or art. The art is borrowed from free assets, the character is from Blackthornprod's free asset package https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/2d/characters/100-fantasy-characters-mega-pack-222143. I'm having trouble piecing together the code for it to be maintainable and understandable for myself in two weeks time :D

All in all, the game took one afternoon to complete and deploy on itch.io.

Looking forward to the next challenge.
