GitHub Desktop for Unity — Part 2: How to resolve merge conflicts

This article is a part of the series:
Using GitHub Desktop for Unity collaboration

In the second part of this series, we explore a very common problem that teams usually run into when collaborating on GitHub Desktop—merge conflicts. These can cause significant delay to your work, as you are forced to handle them when they occur before progressing; and it can take a fair bit of time and skill to solve them.

Resolving them incorrectly can also cause work progress to be lost.

Hence, in this article, we’ll be covering what they are, how you can avoid them, and how you can resolve them.

Creating a Metroidvania (like Hollow Knight) — Part 11: Improved Time-Stop System

This article is a part of the series:
Creating a Metroidvania (like Hollow Knight) in Unity

Part 11 is going to be the first of a few parts in our Metroidvania series that will focus on redesigning some of the codes in this series to make them more robust, and culminate in us having a new, and more stable saving system. In this part, we are going to be recoding and centralising the features in our project that involve time stopping—namely, the time-stop that happens whenever we pause the game, as well as the hit-stop that happens when the player gets hit.

Currently, both features are managed independently, and this can cause unintentional behaviour in the game sometimes. For example, if you happen to pause when an enemy hits you, the game freezes up even after you unpause, and you will need to do another pause and unpause to resume the game, as shown in the video below.

Creating a Rogue-like Shoot 'Em Up (like Vampire Survivors) in Unity

To complete our new weapon system for this series, we will need to have a proper buff / debuff system, because there are weapons in Vampire Survivors that apply buffs and debuffs to enemies. Hence, we're going to be working on this in Part 23, so we can create cool stuff like this:

This is so cool.

Creating a Rogue-like Shoot 'Em Up (like Vampire Survivors) in Unity

Now that we have the revamped enemy system that makes the enemy spawning much more exciting, let's look at how we can improve the depth of enemy interaction in our game. In Part 4, when we first implemented stats for the enemy, we only had health, move speed and damage. In this part, we are going to add all the enemy stats you find in Vampire Survivors on our enemies, so that we are able to create enemies with more depth.

Creating a Rogue-like (like Vampire Survivors) in Unity — Part 21: Upgrading the Enemy Spawn System

This article is a part of the series:
Creating a Rogue-like Shoot 'Em Up (like Vampire Survivors) in Unity

In Part 7 of our series, we created an enemy spawning system so that we had a way to generate enemies and run the core gameplay loop of our game. The enemy spawning system that we created then had a couple of limitations. For example, it was not possible to spawn the infamous Flower Wall that you saw in the Vampire Survivors game.

Flower Wall
By the end of this tutorial, you will be able to do this.

Hence, we're setting out to improve our enemy spawning system so that this sort of spawn becomes possible.
