John Lemon's Haunted Jaunt - Atomic Edition

Overview

This project is based on the Unity tutorial: John Lemon's Haunted Jaunt - 3D Beginner. It introduces basic Unity concepts like 3D environment setup, player movement, and basic interactions.

In this enhanced version, several additional features and modifications have been implemented to extend the original gameplay and improve the overall experience.

How to Play

• Movement: Use the arrow keys or WASD to move John Lemon.
• Running: Press Shift to make John run, if the health is above 50%.
• Pause Menu: Press Esc to bring up the pause menu.
• Health System: John starts with 100 health points. Various in-game elements can cause damage or allow healing.

Features and Modifications

1. Fixed Movement Glitch

• Resolved an issue with the original movement controls that caused unintended player behavior.

2. Enhanced Movement (Running Mechanic)

• Added a sprint mechanic where pressing Shift allows the player to run. Running is only possible if the player's health is above 50%.

3. Main Menu

• A main menu was added to allow the player to start a new game or quit the application.

4. Pause Menu

• Added a pause menu which can be accessed by pressing Escape. It includes the option to resume, go to the main menu, or quit the game.
• All background audio is silenced when the game is paused.

5. Health System

• Implemented a dynamic health system where the player’s health decreases upon taking damage and increases by collecting health items.
• Multi-colored health bar: The health bar changes color based on the player’s health:
  • Green (Full health)
  • Yellow (70% or lower health)
  • Red (30% or lower health)
• If the player’s health drops below 50%, running is disabled.
• If the health drops below 30%, a pulse sound effect plays, indicating critical health.

6. Added Mini-map

• Implemented a mini-map using Unity’s render texture feature, which helps the player navigate through the level.
