ᐅDesign Pattern: Object Pooling in Unity
youtu.be/odYlL8aUinY
This video will show you how to create a 3d infinite endless runner similar to Temple Run in Unity. We use the Input System, Cinemachine, ProBuilder (for the pre-made prefabs), and LootLocker for leaderboards, server storage, and progression. The first section covers infinite tile generation and obstacle spawning. I recommend implementing an object pool to avoid instantiating and destroying constantly. Next we dive in to create the PlayerController which uses the Input System to get events on player input. The PlayerController moves forwards, can jump, slide, and turn. After we implement the Game Over logic to add some difficulty and create a score that is passed to the GameOver script. We create a UI for the end screen, and call LootLocker to store the scores in a leaderboard, which we then fetch to populate our leaderboard UI. After the leaderboard we increase the difficulty of the game over time, and then add progression with skin unlockables which is unlocked through the player score/XP.
Some other things you can add to this game:
-Animations
-Coins or collectables
-Player Character Unlockables
-Post Processing
