SOAP (Scriptable Objects Architecture Pattern) is a Unity architecture pattern that leverages ScriptableObjects to create a more maintainable and decoupled game structure. In this video, we refactor a traditional singleton-based score system and tightly-coupled health system into a more flexible architecture using ScriptableObjects for both variables and events. We demonstrate how to move from direct component references and UnityEvents to a more robust event system that supports both parameterless and generic events, making our systems more testable and designer-friendly. The refactoring shows how to eliminate global state, reduce dependencies between components, and create a clear data flow that's visible in the Unity editor, all while maintaining the ability to debug and monitor our game's state at runtime.
