ni-hao-pinyin-typer's Issues

web player performance

framerate is very poor on browser, especially in full screen

add survival game mode

unlimited time, words

die when fail streak is too high

gameObject hierarchy and organization

fix score manager gameobject:

Score manager should be its own empty gameobject that calls the Score text object. Shouldn't be attached directly as script to the Score text.

Other GameObject organization

typing performance

Sometimes the typing input does not register a key press.

I suspect this is due to the way the TypingManager class finds every word GameObject on every frame update.

streamline build process

Build for:
linux64
windows
web

Zip the build directories for each of the 3 build types

Publish the web version to Unity Play

Use butler to upload the new zipped build directories to itch.io with the proper version number

Draft a new release on Github and tag the code with the proper version number. Make sure that the code used in the builds is fully pushed/merged to the master branch on Github. Attach the 3 zip files to the release.

Write a devlog post on itch.io to describe the changes in the new version

Automate as much of this process as possible

add colors to the score

both for the current score at the top and for the ending score screen

some Chinese words have mutiple pinyin possibilites; game only accepts one

Need to refactor the data structures for the words so that multiple pinyin words are accepted for the same Chinese word

add time limit mode

Game ends after time limit

1 min
3 min
5 min
only 1 time? more?

words go off screen

Words fly off screen

Potential fix is to have them bounce back on screen when going off camera

add mobile support

build for

• iOS
• android

add difficulty modes

Scale difficulty by number of words
also by selection of words from different word files
