Make StackColors in Unity – Points and Scoring (Lesson 7)

For this lesson on how to make StackColors in Unity, we will show you how to add a point system and scoring to our game. We will do this by assigning different point values to the pickup object. Then when the play collects the pickups the player will get the points and add it to the score. We will then update a UI display object with the score.

Make StackColors in Unity – Pickup Interaction (Lesson 6)

For this lesson on how to create StackColors in Unity, we will begin programming the interaction between our player object and the pickups. This interaction is that the pickup objects should become part of the player object and stack on top of each other.

Make StackColors in Unity – Sideways Movement (Lesson 5)

For this lesson on how to make StackColors in Unity, we will be adding to our player controller script to make it so we can control the sideways movement with the position of our mouse. This will make it so we can dodge the bad pickups and collect the good pickups.
