You, a secret hero, are going to close the door and save the world. However, after closing the door and back to the ground, something happens&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our team has 8 members and all of us are programmers. I am the leading programmer and wrote the most part of the codes including the Character Controller, Game Manager, Camera Logic, UI and some level components. I am also the project manager to distribute the work and make sure we can finish the game on time. We used art sources from the Unity Store and the Internet. Here is a short video cut of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"DimenDoor\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KqK0liAGE_w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">View Change<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In this game, the core gameplay is to change the camera view between 2D and 3D. The theme for the game is the door. We brainstormed and make the door as a transfer between different dimensions. We spent lots of time to design the levels. We made full use of the features between 3D and 2D.  For example, the depth information would disappear in 2D and recover in 3D. Players can reach some places only in a 2D view.  There are also some traps that can only be passed in a 3D view. We designed some levels that need the player to switch the view when jumping in the air. This increases the intensity of the game. In total there are 6 levels with different mechanisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign.png 1536w, https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign-1152x1536.png 1152w, https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign-830x1107.png 830w, https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign-230x307.png 230w, https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign-350x467.png 350w, https:\/\/zhangjiajian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/DimenDoorLevelDesign-480x640.png 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><figcaption>Level Design Draft<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start Menu Design<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We designed the start menu inside the elevator of the beginning scene which made the game flow go more smoothly.
