Computer-Generated Scene in Unity For this assignment I created a scene where two soldiers were cruising around with their army truck next to a lake in a very serene landscape. I decided to add tall, jagged mountains that made the scene feel other-worldly, yet similar to Earth terrain. I wanted to create a scene in which soldiers were exploring another Earth-like planet that is being colonized by humans. Ideally I would have added more 3D models to the scene to make it seem as though the soldiers were camping out on...

Creepy City: Note: Please forgive the horrible audio -- music and footsteps sound very odd in the recording... I started working on this to get comfortable with Unity, so I tried to do some things that I wasn't really prepared for. I tried setting 'trigger zones' where music would transition to a 'suspense' audio clip (like when you enter a boss fight in a video game and the music suddenly shifts to action mode). I found a tutorial on the Unity website, followed it, and failed. I didn't look for...

Linked above is my Unity Project, 2016: A Ben Odyssey based very loosely on the first monolith scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Every step of the process was plagued by janky-ness from an accidental move of the scene folder into the scene folder creating an infinite number of scene folders impossible to delete on my desktop to VLC media player not being able to record my screen leading to the iphone produced masterpiece seen above. So. Much. Googling. Did I mention that it tried to build a demo real instead of...

Ah Unity you beautiful devil. Things I tried in this assignment: Manually creating a skybox from images i downloaded from the asset store. It's such a great feeling pressing apply and voila a gorgeous 3d sunset you assembled from a bunch of 2d images. Adding sounds to different locations. I added music in the background of the whole scene but i also added noises like bats to the house to give it a haunted feeling. I want to play around more with this in the future. Adding a particle emitter to...

This was my first time with Unity and it honestly was a crazy creative endeavor. It was surreal to experience first hand the world that I literally created. You are in control of every aspect of this world. From the very first perspective to the very single mountain range peak, it is literally your playground. As an individual who is not familiar with first person gaming, this was an awesome experience to go about this world. I could see the potential that Unity has to offer to those who are...

1.What worked I think the thing that worked most was the kinds of texturing I did. The jagged edges I thought really worked well to help create the badlands feel that I wanted. The scenario I was trying to depict was that of a long range hiker in the badlands who stumbles onto ruins and strange creatures therein. Although the creatures roar in the beginning, luring the hiker to their site, when he reaches them they are standing quietly facing an angel statue. I wound up using the default skybox...
