Hey!<\/p>\n
I’m currently porting our “a TV Show<\/a>”\u00a0game from Unity web player to desktops (win|mac|nix).<\/p>\n I love how Unity make most programmer’s tasks a two click deal. But you still have a lot of places to screw up.<\/p>\n Our biggest problem was to learn how to correctly handle\u00a0different screen resolutions. It’s not a big deal in case of 3D game because by default Unity just clips a little bit of visible space from the sides of the screen and scale UI elements. Which is in our case is totally inappropriate – in our 2D game we want to fit all content without clipping any media or changing the aspect ratio and all UI elements should also stay in place.<\/p>\n This not only make game look bad, but also make it completely unplayable, which is really a pain in … ‘dat place, you know! =\/<\/p>\n So, go test your entry’s playability with various screen resolutions and different aspect ratios (as far as I understand, fixes are allowed by the Rules<\/a>). And if you are using Unity – here is nice solution<\/a> for screen ratio problems.<\/p>\n Good Luck!<\/p>","time":"December 10th, 2014 1:31 pm","title":"Porting porting\u2026"}
