NOTE

THIS IS PROBABLY THE WORSE PIECE OF SOURCE CODE U HAVE EVER SEEN.But hey i mean it works

ONLY WORKS WITH 768x1633 SCREENS. (Dont ask why, commit pull request if u wanna change it)

Project Overview This is a Unity 2D arcade dodger with character selection, score-based difficulty scaling, pickups, and animated transitions between scenes.

Gameplay

• Dodge falling obstacles and survive as long as possible.
• Score increases every second while the game is running.
• Heal pickups restore a life (up to the max).
• Game ends when lives reach zero and transitions to the death screen.

Controls

• Move left/right using the Input System Move action (keyboard arrows/A-D or gamepad stick if mapped).
• In character selection, use arrow keys to switch and Enter to confirm.

Scenes

• MainMenu: Main menu + character selection + music.
• GameScene: Core gameplay.
• DeathScreen: Game over UI with score reveal and countdown.

Player Controller The player is driven by playerController with acceleration/deceleration, horizontal bounds, and sprite swapping for idle/left/right. It also updates a UI head sprite for normal/damage/heal states and applies short invulnerability windows on damage or heal.

Obstacle System ObstacleSpawner handles spawning obstacles and heals, plus scaling difficulty over time and by score.

• Spawn rate accelerates over time, capped by maxSpawnRate.
• Time phases: Easy (0–30s), Medium (30–60s), Hard (60–90s), Insane (90s+).
• Score tiers unlock harder obstacle sets via thresholds.
• Supports multi-spawn events and wave events.

Scoring and Lives GameManager tracks score, lives, and high score. Score increments once per second by a random value between 2 and 7 at game start. Hearts UI is updated when lives change.

Audio AudioManager plays a random music clip and one-shot SFX. Volume settings persist via AudioPrefs. There are also scene-specific audio scripts for main menu and death screen.

Parallax parallax scrolls a material’s texture offset vertically and/or horizontally for background motion.

Persistence Stored via PlayerPrefs:

• HighScore
• LastScore
• MusicVolume
• SfxVolume
• selectedCharacter

Dependencies

• Unity Input System (PlayerInput, InputAction).
• TextMeshPro (TextMeshProUGUI).
• Cinemachine (for impulse camera shake).
• DOTween (for menu UI animations).

Setup Checklist

• Add GameManager to GameScene and assign scoreDisplay, highScoreDisplay, heartImages, and optional loader.
• Add ObstacleSpawner to GameScene and assign obstaclePrefabs and healPrefab.
• Create a Player object with playerController, SpriteRenderer, PlayerInput (with Move action), CinemachineImpulseSource, and a 2D trigger collider. Assign movement sprites and playerHead.
• Tag the Player Player.
• Tag obstacles Obstacle and give them ObstacleController + 2D trigger collider.
• Tag heal pickups Heal and give them a 2D trigger collider.
• Add an AudioManager object tagged Audio with music/sfx AudioSources and clips.
• Ensure scenes named MainMenu, GameScene, and DeathScreen are added to Build Settings.
• In MainMenu, assign MainScript references and populate the characters list with sprites for normal/damage/heal.
• If using transitions, add TransitionLoader objects with an Animator and start/end clips.

Notes GameManager saves score on game over and on app pause/focus changes. The death screen reads LastScore and HighScore from PlayerPrefs to display results.
