Configure coins in Unity with a magnet script that uses Rigidbody movement to pull coins toward the player within a defined range, and enable pickup with audio feedback.

Create a camera script that follows the player with subtle horizontal movement, clamped between a minimum and maximum x range, using late update for smooth, responsive motion.

Integrate a boss into a shooter level in Unity by wiring activation triggers, parenting objects, and managing scene changes to ensure the boss follows, fires missiles, and resets after defeat.

Integrate the enemy into the scene by configuring an activator and collider to enable enemy waves, adjust the wave position and curve, and fine-tune trigger timing with an offset.

Design and implement a laser weapon for a mobile vertical shooter in Unity, including art setup, 9-slice features, particle bursts, and a firing script with collider logic.

Create a mega bomb in a vertical shooter using a particle-based explosion, sphere burst, and a b key deploy to damage enemies via overlap with their health system.

Create a shield power-up in Unity, attach a shield object with a transparent orange material, and implement a duration-based shield script with hit effects and enemy interactions.

Develop a player missile in Unity by refactoring the weapon script to target the nearest enemy using enemy tags, adding a nearest-target finder, and testing rotation and upgrade-ready options.

track enemy kills, human rescues, and untouched status in a Unity level manager, using a serializable medals class and a singleton pattern to unlock achievements at level end.

Create a stats manager to handle item profiles and a five-level upgrade system for weapons, health, shield, laser, and missiles, with binary save/load and a UI upgrade flow.

Configure the stats manager to drive weapon upgrades, health and shield upgrades, and money handling with blaster and missile profiles. Manage upgrade timers and serialize progress in Unity.

Build a Unity upgrade system for a vertical shoot 'em up, implementing money checks, price level upgrades, and time-based progress via coroutines with a shop panel UI.

Improve the upgrade system by refining the buy button, setting up a five-level slider with a masking bar, and displaying affordability feedback within the game's UI.

Create a Unity dialog system for a vertical shoot 'em up by building a window, text, and buttons, then implement a singleton dialog manager with show dialogue and yes/no actions.
