Sources:

All sprites where made by me using: https://www.piskelapp.com

The background was taken from here: https://craftpix.net/freebies/free-rpg-battleground-asset-pack/?num=1&count=399&... and adjusted by me using Gimp.

Background Music is Medieval: Battle by RandomMind - Royalty Free https://www.chosic.com/download-audio/28493/

The 4 sound effects I have are from a different source:

Hit-Swing-Sword-Small was from Pixabay  https://pixabay.com/sound-effects/hit-swing-sword-small-2-95566/

The other 3 were actually samples i was able to download while using a free version of NCH Software - I downloaded the 3 I liked and after trying to download another was blocked by a paywall. I cannot get a link to them specifically but a link to their website is here https://www.nch.com.au/index.html They are Titled:

• Balloon 1
• Balloon 2
• Human Grunt 3

Features:

I have created a 2D Side Scrolling Shooter, with the help of Chat GPT that I will mention below, I have implemented a Health bar using custom sprites, a end game listener that makes the level end when a curtain number of enemies have been defeated. Making the background music play and continue while playing the game. A restart button when you have a game over screen. Updating my Scoring script to work so it is displayed on the screen and is attached to the Balloon Knights Death animation.

Other Items I Didn't Implement:

I had plans to make a final level with a big Boss, however is was becoming too difficult to complete in the final weeks of building.

I had created a HeliKnight and get him to work as desired, however when it came to fighting it, there were issues that continued to persist, so i made the decision to cut this content. I have a Chat GPT conversation trying to help out but no luck.

Enemy Health Scripting: Unity

This is the same with the Guard mechanic i wanted to implement at the beginning, however after many, MANY hours working on this, it top became to difficult to complete. I also had Chat GPT trying to help out but it was just not working...

GameObject Transforming vs Replacing

This is now a completed game, It has been a challenging and extremely rewarding experience.

Thank you for playing my game.
