Unity’s Tower Defense

For the Midterm Project in Circuit Stream’s Unity Developer Bootcamp, we were instructed to add a feature to a pre-existing game. I was given the Hero as a responsibility.

Challenges:

Diving through code that was already written.
Refactoring old code to fit with newly written code.
Applying code that was specifically created for towers to a mechanic like the Hero, which isn’t in the project at all.

Solutions:

Tested each part of the code using the debugger in Visual Studio to figure out exactly what code was attached to the Game Objects.
Followed SOLID principles in order to refactor the old code while maintaining functionality and style.
Created a new Hero class, and understood what previously written functions were needed by the Hero.
