With it being my last week here at Matmi, we figured it was worth having an update on the table foosball. The main changes we wanted to make since the last update was the addition of a top down camera, and an update to the display graphics, we decided to move into Unity for ease of design, once I got my head into it I found that it was significantly easier than positioning everything in html as I@apos;d done in the previous build.
Above is the first build I made in Unity as I was learning how to use the canvas UI features, we knew we wanted the camera feed to be the focus with the rest of the information sat around it. As you can see from the pictures once we were happy with the general design of the main screen we completely overhauled the UI, Lawrence and Phil have been working to give it a much cleaner look than my paint.net assets. We had a few ideas for what style to go for, whether it be a serious Sky sports-esque design, or a retro football cartoon display with colourful characters. The design we@apos;ve gone for reflects the energetic, fun, and frantic nature of table football, with a set of stylised player icons to choose from.
