In this tutorial I learned  a little bit about AI, however around the third video I had a few problems, my version of unity was different, and a piece of code was causing errors, I did attempt to fix it and I want to continue working on this tutorial in my free time. The tutorial took the tanks game from a separate tutorial and added two different forms of AI, I enjoyed learning what I could from it before having issues with Unity. I want to continue watching this tutorial and progressing as this seemed really interesting.

Executive Summary

So I took The Secret World and mixed it with Hollow Knight and Dead Cells… This game combines Hollow Knight’s idea of having to backtrack, The Secret World’s Skill tree system, and a mix of enemy variants based off of all 3 games.

 A 2-D Platforming game. You awaken in a subway station and must battle your way through different variants of enemies and obstacles. The levels have many areas to explore, and at times requires backtracking. Players will be rewarded for exploring, through weapons, items, upgrades, and even help from friendly NPCs.
