Assignment 3 of Mobile Programming

MGD-MobileHomework3

This project is developed using Unity 2019.4.16f1.

Setup

To play this game go to Scenes/MainScene and click play in Unity Editor.

Introduction

The project is about a match-3 game, very similar to its famous older brothers. To play the game select your preferred power up (choosing between Bomb and Freeze) and click the New Game button. To move around the displayed tiles the player has to click a tile and re-click another adjacent tile, if the clicked tile is a match then the two tiles will swap position and the match is resolved. Otherwise, an animation suggests the impossibility to move. After a swap, all the tiles above the match will shift down to close the gap and new tiles will spawn in the blank spaces left by the shifted tiles. At this moment, if any new match is created it is resolved automatically by the board controller. After this period, if the player can't move any of the tiles displayed then it's GameOver, otherwise the player can select another tile to match. During the shift, refill and board check period player's interaction with the board is disabled to prevent parallels match that would lead to conflicts in the board logic. Every time a new match is resolved the score is updated, if two or more matches are resolved in a short period of time then a combo multiplier is applied to the current match score. The combo multiplier is incremented by one every new match resolved in the specified period. After some time without matches, the combo multiplier is reverted back to normal.
