When You Wish Upon A Star

FULL SCREEN to play around the board.
This is part of the AI game programming assignment about path-finding.  Developed in Unity independently.

Gameplay: The pathfinding is running by itself, click on the tile/grid the player wants to change and select on the left side.

Game start point/ main(): Game Manager.

Grid:20*20(default), virtual/ initial tilemap, holding the layout and storing the position of each tile.

Tile: 20*20(default), attached to the grid, also the holder of the entities in tile.

TileManager: Different methods for calculating tile position, getting entities info on tiles.

State: Different states that holds Enter(), Decide(), Move(), Exit().

StateMachine: The actual “Update()” of the game.

UI: Collected stars: collected stars/remaining stars on board(dynamic)

A star: the main method is GetPath(), called by each StarChaserState when entering the state, it calculates the path by the given start and end node.

Some special cases:   a): When StarChaser/ Trade post/ Spaceship is blocked, the game pause and needs to restart.

  b): When the nearest target(star/ tradepost /spaceship )is blocked, the game pause and needs to restart.

  c): if the star chaser is on the same tile with the target, then it doesn’t need to do any pathfinding, it will automatically go to the next state.

StarChaser: When it is yellow, means that it is carrying the star, vice versa.
