Game Fun

FUN... everyone has a different interpretation of the word fun, I can think something is fun but someone else could think it's not. With games I have learnt that there are now many words to describe the word fun.

Narrative is the drama behind the game, this can make a game interesting. Challenge can make a player keep playing as they want to pass it making it competitive and addicting.

Unity Free Tutorials

I decided to try and find a tutorial on how to add a health bar, I looked through a few but they were pretty bad ones that were made on much older version's of unity so I thought it would be best to not try that as something might not work in the newer version of Unity.
