Unity Project 6: Coin Collection (Code Explained)

This is the script used to control the health bar. 
When damage is taken the health is decreased.



Health bar script

This script creates the floating effect that is on the coin by transforming the values on the y-axis by using a Sin wave from its original position.



Idle Move script

This script allows the player to pick up the coin. 
Each coin is assigned to a tag named "Player" and therefore whenever the player collides with any object assigned to this tag the particle system is played creating a particle explosion and the object (coin) is 'disabled' causing it to disappear as the particle system is played. 

The inner and outer mesh are destroyed on collision.



Pick up script

When the player collides with the object, the health bar decreases by 10.
The != operation returns false if its operands are equal, true otherwise.


Spike Trap script

This script allows the object (coin) to constantly rotate, the speed is defined in the scene view.


Constant Rotation

[Research] Traditional Poster Design (4CTA1214)

Image
As you can see from the superman poster, there are only four main colours used which includes red, blue, yellow and brown. All elements are filled in with block colours with no shading which was a common colour theme for traditional posters of this kind. This poster may have been used to advertise a new Superman comic or movie depending on the year it was created. The expression on the characters face fits the title shown on the poster explaining that he is returning. This poster advertised Coca Cola, and looks as though this specific poster was used in the USA - due to the currency used. The whole aim of the poster is to incorporate this drink into working peoples daily lives. This is seen by the slogan, 'Work refreshed' and the small graphics on the bottom right of the poster. Displayed is a man working in a factory environment and a lady is working in an office environment both drinking cola during their breaks - to feel refreshed. In some ways the bottle and
