Background
About Me
I’m Luis González, right now I’m a Video Game developer student at CITM-UPC.
My goals are to be part of the development of an Indie game, an AAA game and, at some point, develop my own
Video Game on my own. I also would like to develop my own 2D Engine on my own to test my abilities and, maybe,
use it for the Video Game I want to develop on my own.
Some of my most relevant achievements are being part of this Video Game development Alien: Nemesis,
the development of my own 3D Engine Mantel Engine and being part of the development of a 2D Tactical RPG Video Game Breaking Cats.
Project Overview
For this project I had the role of Developer in the Code Team. My job was to help in the process of the development of the game and the engine, for more detail seek Main Tasks.
Main Tasks
Development of Canvas
Update of Canvas: Canvas prints in the Screen all the UiElements that it has There are the following UiElements types:
ImageUI
ButtonImageUI
CheckerUI
SliderUI
TextUI
Flickering FX
All ImGui Panel Inspector in order to edit variables, Add Canvas, Remove it, etc.
Difficulties
Some difficulties appeared on selecting the section of the images, that changed the scale of the image. Other challenges include the SliderUI having an excessive number of editable options, which affects readability. Modifying the ImGui Panel Inspector for the Slider to enhance readability is advisable.
Development of Canvas
We had all the art, sprites and designs for the menus, so it was time to implement them in the game.
I created a new scene called HUD_Scene to advance all UI progress there.
I created the canvases and
UIElements for all the menus and, then, I scripted them to be able
for the player to navigate through the different options. All ImGui Panel Inspector in order to edit variables, Add Canvas, Remove it, etc.
