Check Out My Game! [Updated - 01/10/16 @ 2:59pm] - MrJamieMcC - Jun 8, 2016
I'm making a Bar Simulator game in Unity and using the C# language.
I use Facebook to publish all my work and get peoples ideas and inputs
Here is the URL for the Facebook Page. Check it out! Leaving a like and sharing helps a lot!
I will also be using this thread to promote and show my work on Hackforums. If anybody ever has any questions about my game, making games or coding then please do say so. I'm always happy to help. If you ever have any input, comments or constructive criticism then once again please do say!
If youre are interested in learning a skill such as Game Creation, Unity, Photoshop or 3D Modelling then simple ask. I'm more than happy to teach some people my skills. I'm not an expert but i can help.
If you already have some skills and are thinking about getting involved in game creation then have a look at my other thread Here.

All text that is in bold is new information
1. I started off my creating brands for the Beer and Cider in my game. I'm not able to use real brands so i came up with a few of my own. Check them out. Cider Brand Logos & Beer Brand Logos
2. In the game customer have a "Emotion/Mood". They range from Black, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green & White. (Black being the angriest). Depending on what the customers mood is they will leave a good tip/review of the business (which is a side goal of the game). If a player is angry and drunk at the same time then you better get ready for a fight to break out. The challenge was to show the customers mood with colour. The original idea was to simply have different shades from Red, Orange and Green. Check out this video and have a look what i got. (Blue is neutral) Customer Mood Colour
3. I have now made a system for spawning the pint glasses. Depending on what Beer tap the player selects a pint glass will spawn below it. Eventually they will be animated to fill up over time and over flow if the player isnt careful. Currently im just using grey cylinders. Check it out. Pint Glass Spawning
4. I have now finished the pint pouring system. As you know it takes time to pour a pint to the correct height and foam etc. Im currently making a script which changed the colour of the pint over time. For example. The pint starts off Grey and will gradually become Green. Meaning the pint is able to be stopped. The player will only have a few seconds but until the pint goes Red. Meaning the pint has overflowed and it was a bad pour. If the player gets the timing right they get a better score. Obviously this something i will have in place until i get the animations sorted. Check out the video Pint Pouring System
5. I have finished the pint teleportation feature. I planned to have the pint follow a way point to the beer mat butdoing that was harder than i thought so i decided to create a preset Vector3 for every "BarMatLocation" in which the empty pint can teleport to (if the space is free). When there is currently a pint in the location and waiting to be picked up no other pint can be teleported to that position. Check out the video Pint Teleporting
6. Today i will be working on both the main menu and the pause screen. Im focusing more on the pause screen as i have a few ideas for it.

Thanks very much. Its something new. Im making a trailer for the game soon. Ive been learning for roughly 6 months. This is my analogy for programming. Its like learning to count. At first its difficult to learn to count 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. But when you can count to 10 its a lot easier to count in decimals like 1.1,1.2,1.3 etc. Its hard(ish) when starting off, but when you get started it gets easier and easier.
Thanks for the like :)

I also really like your website, I'm guessing you made it yourself buddy?
Thanks,

Yea i made it myself. Its used via Tumblr. I post to Tumblr and in turn posts to my website. It only costs £7 in total for 2 years for the domain. Im currently focusing on Facebook as it gives me the ability to connect with more people. Both Tumblr and Facebook have their pros and cons.
Updated thread. I have added the 2nd part where i had to show the mood of the customers. Check the original posts for more info

Nice work. I started messing around with unity myself since a few days. I think it's a great engine to start with. Did you model the objects yourself, if so with what tools? I'd be interested in that. Anyways, good luck with future projects!

I have modelled everything myself yes :). Ive only been modelling for around 1 month. I use Google Sketch Up as its free and simple to use as well as easy to import into Unity

Hm intereseting. Nice you modeled them yourself though. I also saw some tutorial on YouTube which used 3ds max but it seemed quite advanced.

3DS Max was my first option but it scared me to. It was too complex for someone starting off. Google Sketch Up is easy to use and get used to. If youre interested in a small tutorial for free then let me know :)

You should probably post this in the Website showcase and review since it's not really an help request / question but a review.

I had the same dilemma. I was going to post it in bragging rights to reduce the clutter in this sub forum. I suggested a sub forum ages ago for game creation/design but many said their wasnt a need for it. I posted in this section as im offering help to people as my knowledge is too extensive to create a lot of threads on specific things, and thus i made this. I also made it as a kind of inspiration to others out there who know nothing/little about code or game creation, photoshop or 3D Modeling

Woah! Great page and the game also looks great right now. I love the stories that you are telling on your Facebook page, it isn't only a status update. But there is also a lot of background information. GREAT!
