Exercise 7: Create a Short Narrative Cutscene

Description

Create a narrative introduction to a game (i.e. a cutscene). Don't worry so much about polish and making it "complete". The goal is for you to get practice with UI elements, the animaton system, and coroutines. Keep it simple! For now...

The requirements are:

• Use at least one coroutine with WaitForSeconds
• Use UI elements to present narrative text
• USe at least two animations, and use the animator to switch between them

I encourage you to look at the resources/videos on the Unity webpage about the Animation/Animator system if you haven't used it in a project yet.

Also, feel free to teach yourself about Unity's Timeline editor. This is a tool that you can use to create sequences of actions inside the Unity editor (without much code). If you take this route, make sure you also understand how coroutines work.

Building your Project for the Web

• Open the Build Settings (File > Build Settings...)
• Click the Add Open Scenes button
• Select "WebGL" and then click the "Switch Platform" button
• Click the "Build" button
• When it asks you where you want to put your build, create a folder titled "web" in your exercise07 folder. Once you do this, it will take several minutes to build your game.

Submission

Submit your project to github. Make sure your Unity project is titled "exercise07" and located in the "exercises" folder of your local github repository. To push it up to github, open Github Desktop, commit your changes (you need to enter a comment in the field on the bottom left of the screen), and click the "Push origin" button near the top middle of the screen.

If everything worked, you should be able to play your game by going to:
