Learnt new stuff!

For monday lesson, we were taught how to create some simple effects for games. We learnt how to create rain and ripple effects using houdini and particles system in Unity.

 The snowflake we created our own.

 The snow flake texture i find from the internet to be used as my snow flake.

The ripple effect taught

After that we were told to make snow our own with the textures we found in the net. After we have done that, we started with our effects for our games.

I have learnt how to do the trails when the food is flying towards the player.
Using the trail renderer in Unity. I'm able to apply texture i want from the internet to Unity and then choosing the colour and the lifetime i want. I also can apply more than 1 colours to the trails.

I also learnt how to create smoke using particles system. By changing the shape to cone, color over lifetime, size over lifetime, size by speed.

The smoke texture I find from the internet to use as my smoke texture.

There's a problem. I dont know how to make the smoke white color!!

And now I'm left with the last difficult effects which is the 'star trail effect' when the player catches the ingredient and gotten a score, the star trail will start from the player food to the score there. and then added a score point to the score.

If its too hard, I'll probably change to a new effect, which is rain or some weather effect.
