Creating a simple game according to the plan | PC | Unity

Technical task: Development of a game in Unity (Minimum version for defense)

Genre: Adventure game with survival and strategy elements
Platform: PC
Goal: Create a simple but functional game that contains a minimum set of all necessary mechanics. It is not necessary to bring the game to the final version – the main thing is that all key elements are implemented.

What needs to be implemented (minimum version)

🔹 Menu

• Background (image, not just color)
• Buttons: Play (enter the game), Settings, Save Game, Load Game, Exit (leave the game)
• Simple UI without complex animations

🔹 Scenes and locations

• 2-3 simple scenes (for example, forest, city, bunker)
• Use of ready-made models from Unity Asset Store
• Lighting + effects (fog, dimming) for atmosphere

🔹 Gameplay and interaction

• The player can move and interact with objects
• NPC (at least one) for dialogues or simple quests
• Combat system (can be a shooter or just weapon strikes)

🔹 Save system

• At least 3 save slots
• Saving the player's position and parameters
• Can use PlayerPrefs or a simple file system

🔹 Effects

• Line Renderer – use, for example, for a laser or arrow trajectory
• Trail Renderer – for the effect behind the weapon or bullet trails
• Particle System – explosions, smoke, or lightning
• Audio Source – sounds of shots, environment

🔹 Control settings

• Menu for changing control keys (can be very simple)
• Ability to set keys for movement or attack

🔹 Unity Remote Config

• Change text color in the menu via Remote Config
• Change the background of the main scene via configuration

Main idea

The project can be simple and not fully completed, but it must present a minimum set of all functions. Locations, NPCs, saving, combat – everything can be implemented at a basic level.
Ready-made solutions (models, UI, effects) can be used for quick implementation. The main thing is to show that all necessary mechanics are present in the game.

✅ Result – a working prototype that can be easily defended.
