PurrfectFlight

PurrfectFlight is a 2D side-scrolling game similar to Flappy Bird. This project provides a character selection and loading system for a Unity game. It includes the following scripts:

• CharacterSelectionScript
• LoadCharacter
• BirdScript
• CharacterDatabase
• CharacterManager
• LogicScript
• PipeMoveScript
• Player

Usage

1. Add the CharacterSelectionScript to a GameObject to manage the selection of characters.
2. Add the LoadCharacter script to a GameObject to load the selected character into a new scene.
3. Use the BirdScript as an example of a character script that can be used with the selection and loading system.
4. Create a CharacterDatabase ScriptableObject to store a list of available characters.
5. Add the CharacterManager script to a GameObject to manage character selection and loading.
6. Use the LogicScript to handle scoring and game over logic.
7. Add the PipeMoveScript to your pipe GameObjects to make them move in the game.
8. Use the Player script to load the selected character sprite for the player.

Note

The provided code contains commented sections. Uncomment the code sections in each script to use the functionality. It's also a work in progress, not fully complete! This was intended as a learning journey for myself and will be updated ever so slightly. I followed a youtube tutorial on several parts and learned how to mesh scenes.
