Within my Bachelor of Arts with Honours experience, provided by The University of Cumbria in 2026, I developed a simple yet frustrating micro-game that has the player scrambling to type the corresponding random characters in sequence to gain points before the timer runs out. Said sequence varies in quantity and the timer then restarts upon completion whilst gradually speeding up until the player fails by running out of lives.
Although challenging, it was made necessary for me to learn how to incorporate lists into my scripting process in order to generate the random sequence order. Player preferences was also discovered with the objective of storing the player’s score variable to act as the high score.
I made it within editor version Unity 2022.3.34f1, with Rewired made by Guavaman (for input management) as well as LeanTween made by Dented Pixel (for the countdown animation). Additionally, I pitched this to Sunderland College lecturers Matthew Lawson-Hall and Tobias Bowery. This project is played by pressing the U, I, O, and P keys on a keyboard.
