A simple Unity game designed for iOS. The player(s) clear groups of identical blocks; bigger groups give exponentially more points.
There are two game modes:
- Timed
- One player tries to get as high a score as possible in the allotted time
- Turn-based
- Two players take turns clearing blocks. The player with the highest score after a certain number of turns is the winner.
The blocks are organized on a rectangular grid of a fixed size. Grid-related scripts are stored in "Assets/Scripts/Game Grid Stuff".
The grid representation is stored in the "GameGrid" MonoBehaviour script; it holds a 2D array of integers (representing the different types of blocks) and provides methods for modifying the grid.
The block objects each have a "GameGridBlock" MonoBehaviour component, which constantly seeks toward its position in the grid. The blocks are given animation by simply moving them away from their grid position, making them move back towards it again (this is most easily accomplished through the use of the "PushBlockAway" Monobehaviour script).
The blocks are generated by the "GameGridGenerator" MonoBehaviour script on its "Start()" method.
Player input is handled by the script "Assets/Scripts/PlayerInput.cs". It waits for a finger tap (or mouse click if testing in the editor) and checks whether the tap was on a block, in which case it clears the block and any blocks that touch it.
All game flow scipts are in "Assets/Scripts/Gameplay Controllers". "GameplayController.cs" is an abstract MonoBehaviour class that represents some game mode. There are two classes that inherit from it: "GameplayController_Timed" and "GameplayController_TurnBased".
Both of these game modes have their own gameplay scene, as well as an accompanying "Review" scene that shows the scores once the game is over.
All UI scripts are in "Assets/Scripts/UI". They use the old UI system for Unity (using the "GUI" class).
