UMD CMSC425: Programming Assignment 1, Part 2

Implementation

• Use the arrow keys or "WASD" to tilt the board
• Collect 2 of the pick up items to unlock the winner's circle!
• Hit 'Q' to quit
• Hit 'R' to restart
• The board can tilt a maximum of 20°

Additional implementation details

• The board will reset to it's original position if no tilts are applied
  • The board "resists" user inputs by applying an interpolater which is fast when the change in direction is large, but slow when the change in direction is constant.

Known issues

• When moving to a corner and then tilting hard in the opposite direction, the ball will fall through the floor. I think the motion updates faster than the collision and the ball will sink before realizing it was collided with.
• When loading up Unity, make sure to give it time to load the wooden planks (texture for board). They were loading very slowly on start-up for me.

External resources

• The board's wood texture is from the asset store item 'Worn Wooden Planks' by user 'EBUTLER3D'.
