Dash
A 2.5D Sidescroller
Construct Dash is a 2.5D side scrolling type game which was developed to showcase my understanding and knowledge of working with 3D assets within an 2D perspective. The premise of this project to show my understanding of using the Unity Character Controller by making a Mario-like platformer game.
​
This project was my first time working with 3D assets which opened up my knowledge of 3D character rigging and animation. This prototype allowed me to explore different game setups and structure since moving from 2D to 2.5D. In this demo I learned how to build a proper platformer level with classic aspects that follow that genre.
​
Since working with an 3D environment, I was able to stretch my UI/UX ability to its limit. By creating a tutorial stage with instructions integrated to the stage design, I was able to create a seamless experience for players to learn and play at the same time.
Skills that was demonstrated in this project:
-
Working with 2D buttons with sound effects:
-
Creating Audio that doesn't restart when moving to different scenes.
-
Player Input using "WASD"​
-
Different Player interactions:
-
Shift to crouch and roll forward​
