Puppeteer's Game Templates

Hey all,

I'll be posting about released game templates and updates on this thread. Here are some of the templates I've recently released:

Casual Game Templates

Puzzle Game Templates

On Rails Shooter Kit

Trivia Quiz Game Template

All of the templates above are release-ready, you can basically build it to any platform right out of the box. The controls are ready for PC ( mouse/keyboard ), Mobile ( Touch ), and Consoles ( Gamepad ). They also support multiple screen ratios without having to tamper with the scene.

Follow this thread for more releases and updates for existing packages.

 

...and some earlier game templates:

Store Link: Astro Bouncer

Store Link: Hidden Object Game

Store Link: Space Ace Shooter

Store Link: MVR Tower Defense

Even though these are older templates, I still managed to make some updates for them that revitalized their features over time. Space Ace had a new inventory system added to it along with gamepad controls, and MVR was completely revamped with the new Unity UI instead of the old OnGUI. Hidden Object was just recently ported to C#.

 

My next template has been submitted. It should be in the asset store within a few days. It's a basic Shooting Gallery type of game, the graphics are from Kenney.nl.

 

Astro Bounce update 1.28 (30.08.2015)
- Entire project ported to C#. The package now contains both versions for JS and C#.

Another template finished and submitted, it should be in the store hopefully within two weeks. This one is a Trivia Quiz Game, and here's a little gameplay video:

You can take a look at the documentation here.

Here's a little bit about how the questions and answers in the game work:
The questions list in the game controller holds all the possible questions in the game.You can have as many questions
as you like in this list.At the start of the game the list is shuffled,and then sorted based on the bonus value of the question.
This results in a list of questions that starts with the low bonuses and rises up to higher bonuses as you progress through the game.This allows you to make questions with varying difficulty by assigning a proper bonus to each question.
For example, a very simple question would have a bonus of 100, while a more difficult one could have a bonus of 5000.

You can also set a limit to the mistakes allowed for each question, and a time limit too. If you make too many mistakes or time runs out you lose a life and the game asks another question.

Another nice thing is the ability to set a limit to the number of questions from each group, so for example you can have 20 questions in the group that gives 100 bonus. When the game starts you can have it choose randomly 5 questions from this group and present them in the game. This makes each game varied and not repetitive. When the player answers 5 questions from this group correctly, the game moves on to the next group.

You can also control the bonus loss when answering incorrectly. By default you lose half your bonus for each wrong answer, but you can set it to any percentage. If the player answers incorrectly and loses a life, the game chooses another question from the same group.

All of these features will ensure a nice flow to your game progress from easy to hard, along with some nice audio-visual cues to keep your players entertained.

Sorry for interrupting but I just wanna tell you that you are (for me) one of the best (if not the best) asset developer on this assetstore. You have many different assets, and even if the aged gracefully you still updating and add new features. You are very responsive if client needs help and listen to the needs of your clients. Thumbs up and Thank you!

As you can see, Iam here since 2013 and purchased around 300 assets. So i think I can judge you from other developers.

 

You won't believe how much this means to me. It's a tough business as is, but some things make going on this path all the more worth it.

Allow me to share this if you don't mind

 

I gotta agree with Devision4. I particularly love your trivia template. Best one I've seen / used!

Keep up the great work man.

 

I'm glad you like, it was really hard work going from the earlier version to the current one. I should put some more features on it

 

I know just how much work you did put in, because I had the earlier version, and I've seen what you did in the new version.
It's phenomenal that you keep adding features.
I wish you the best with its progress and success

Hey can i suggest some things for the Endless car chase?

Maybe roads & buildings that generate where you go? a bit like how Smashy road have it, that would be really cool and another one maybe generate different landscapes, like a city, desert,forest that kind of thing

 

Great job on the Endless Car Chase Template!

Do the vehicles work on non-flat surfaces such as ramps and hills?

Thanks!

 

The default game mode is an endless kind of run with a floor that never ends. You can technically use the spawner to spawn buildings around the player just like we do with the rock obstacles, but I think it will not be good for a city map.

Alternatively you can actually use a ready made scene with roads and buildings and set the game inside it without the repeating floor. I'm thinking of adding such an example scene in the package ( with buildings that are randomly switched around to give a different feel to the city each time ).

Currently the game mode that is shown replicates the behavior in the game "Car vs Cops", which is basically an infinitely looping flat floor where you move on it while the enemies chase you.

But I'm making tests to see if I can make cars move along surfaces ( not full physics where they jump away and flip ), giving them an interesting feel in a non-flat environment.

Regarding Sky Flight template, a few questions:

1. Is the map 3d and randomly/procedural generated ? We wanted to use our own 3d map (terrain) and generate it on the go
2. Can we use any 3d model ? We wanted to replace the eagle with humanoid 3d model (we have our own flying animation too)
3. We want to customize the game somewhat to match Eagle Flight, are there any limitations we should be aware of ?

 

1. The map is made of sections that are repeated along a path


Within each section there are elements that are randomly moved around ( within a limit ) each time we reset the position of the section.



2. Yes, you can reskin the player and the environments with your own models. One of the pruchasers of this template reskinned it into this game:

https://itunes.apple.com/app/id1431009631

3. The main difference I see from Eagle Flight is that this game moves in a straight line. You move forward in a straight path while being able to move the player sideways within a limited "rectangle". You have no free flight in all directions.

 

Thanks for the reply.

1. So basically the map is not divided between ground and objects but rather into pieces/squares which get spawned/moved as the game goes on ? How difficult would it be to change it to the other way as I wanted to create more unique feeling maps (static/same ground terrain and different objects). Something like a forest would work with your way but I think a city kind of thing won't work or some piece which has unique object (say tower), as a unique object getting repeated would feel odd.
Also, can the list of section elements be updated in real time ? As that would allow doing the above to some possibility (add unique section to the list via code and remove when we pass it, so it doesnt repeat)

2. Nice

3. I am not considering full free flight as well but would like more area to move around. I wanted to add First Person POV and maybe even VR to it and make it something like a psuedo-race. You need to fly/move forward but you have more room to hover/fly around, up and down.

 

1. The sections are present in the scene at the start of the game, and are assigned to the gamecontroller to keep track of them and repeat them. This means that in the current code structure they are kind of locked. For them to work in a dynamic way you'd have to use Instantiate to create each section at runtime, this would also give you the ability to minimize repetition because you're not locked to what you already have in the scene.

2. for the VR FOV maybe you could allow the player to look around while still moving forward and sideways within the path. The other option is to have free flight in all directions and use a premade map like other simulation games maybe.

 

New update for Forest Defense, check it out here (affiliate link):

Hey, Puppeteer sorry for interrupting I was just wondering if you can update the Sky Flight to Unity 2018.3. And add some new innovating features! I just recently bought the assets and it's great. Thank You

Sincerely,
New Customer

 

Thanks for the purchase, if you open your project with 2018.3 it should upgrade the API without problems. But I will also post a version for 2018.3 for review.

What features do you think about for this type of template?

 

You should add tilt controls and or a shop(In-game currency) of some sort with new birds/animals that have power-ups or special abilities. As well as a score multiplier with some achievements. Everything you're doing is right Keep Up the good work!

 

I actually have a code inside the package that uses tilt controls, but it was so jittery that I just hid it. Some other customers revealed the code and tried to fix the functionality in their projects, so I think it can be done right eventually. I will try again.

Special abilities and powerups sound like great ideas, I think it's time for another update

 

That sounds great! Thank You to continue to update your project!

How to control mobile?

 

There are basic touch controls when you build the game for a mobile device. It's not perfect, but it works.

 

Hi @puppeteer, any idea where we can download the mentioned Unity ads integration from your documentation?
"Download Puppeteer's UnityAds package from: http://puppeteerinteractive.com/freebies/PUPUnityAds.unitypackage"
or any other steps one should take to get ads integrated (maybe update the documentation?)
