Game Design

Lesson 6: High Score

In this lesson, we will access the “High Score” and display it on the Lose_Scene

HighScore

Use the code below to create a new script called HighScore. You will create an empty gameobject called High Score that you will attach this script to. You will then assign a new text object to the scripts variable as in the video below the code.

Wire Up the High Score

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.UI;
public class HighScore : MonoBehaviour {
    public Text highScore;
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
        highScore.text = "Jumps: " + PlayerPrefs.GetInt("High Score").ToString();
    }
}

Lesson 3: Menu System

In this lesson we are going to add a start menu and lose scene. You’ll follow the directions in the video and use the code below:

Create a Start Menu

LevelManager.cs

Create a Lose Scene

Follow similar steps as you did to create a start menu to build a lose scene. You will have to modify the code in your BirdScript on line 42 to change to your Lose_Scene instead of restarting the MainScene.

Lesson 4: Menu System

In this lesson you’re going to refer back to the FlappyBird Clone build and add a menu system by making minor adjustments that are suitable for this game.

Create a Start Menu

LevelManager.cs

Create a Lose Scene

Follow similar steps as you did to create a start menu to build a lose scene. You will have to modify the code in your NinjaScript on line 18 to change to your Lose_Scene instead of restarting the MainScene.
