CloudHopper

A first-person endless runner, where you hop on clouds!

Games Job Fair Spring 2024 - Unity Programming Challenge entry.

A small complete game. I would have wanted to learn to implement something cool like UGS features, add object pooling with different cloud patterns, and incorporate a bit overkill multi-threading if I had more time. Coming up with a fun gameplay loop was surprisingly difficult this time, and thus it took me too much time to just try things out. In retrospect I could have focused my attention differently.

Nevertheless, the experience was definitely worth it! This was my first time using some of Unity's features and I am really happy with what I managed to achieve within the short time limit.

You can find the source code here on GitHub.
