An essential part to any game, the tutorial is a scene at the start of the game that essentially teaches the player how to play the game at its core.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Mechanics Designer, Ayse, created a plan about what the tutorial level would be like:<\/p>\n\n\n

With this plan, I started development on the tutorial scene. Using the room prefabs, I created a link of four rooms side to side, starting with an R Room, then three LR rooms (These room labels are explained in this Procedural Room Generation Development Post<\/a>). The player would start in the first R Room and would make their way rightwards through the LR rooms, the last of which would take the player to the Hub scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reason I made the player walk rightwards as opposed to downwards in the diagram, was due to a discussion our group had in person that wasn’t recorded, so I am unable to show screen shots of this conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bug fixing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To fix the enemy not dying in the tutorial, I simply added a RoomManager gameobject and referenced it in the Whisper’s Enemy_Whisper script, a more in depth explanation is in this Development Post<\/a>, at the commit on April second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To incentivise players to complete the tutorial the intended way, I implemented a system to lock players into certain rooms of the tutorial, only unlocking them if the player had completed the task we envisioned for the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
