SWAT
A downloadable game for Windows
SWAT is a side-scrolling shooter where you use your rifle and pistol to dispatch enemies along the way to the exit. Use WASD to move, space to jump, mouse to aim, R to reload, and left mouse to fire. F turns your flashlight on and off.
This is a one person production over the course of two weeks using Unity and C#. All art, sound, and programming was done by me.
This experience taught me a lot. It was my first project that I concepted and developed completely by myself. I decided to play around with features I was not familiar with, namely lighting in 2D space and basic enemy AI.
Given more time, I would add more gameplay surrounding the lighting and add a more tactical approach to the combat than "Run & Gun." I would also use the knowledge I've acquired to make more quality of life changes such as visual contrast between the player, enemies, and the background.

bro this is a really good game! I tried making a game with UE5 and it took me a whole month just to get all the functions, and buildings ready. so then i took and short break, which ended to be a long break and that break is still active till this day
Thanks! Yeah getting back into a project after a break is hard. The best way I've found is to choose a feature that interests you and start working on it for a bit. I usually end up working longer and longer and eventually look forward to working on the project again. It's a marathon though, not a sprint.
