Title: 6 DETAILS TO MAKE A GREAT PLAYER CHARACTER – UNITY TUTORIAL By: Blackthornprod Youtube – Tutorial Description: Tutorial on adding a few small details to enhance the feel of the player character.
Overview
I came across this tutorial that covers a few quick ways to add some details to a player character to make them feel much more fun and interactive to use. They used Hollow Knight as a base for the types of details they were looking to add. The key details they created were: landing animation, jumping/landing vfx, moving vfx, background interaction while moving, and jumping/landing sound effects.
While on the simpler side, these are all very nice features to add that can quickly make your character much more enjoyable to use. As an important side note they mention, this can actually be beneficial to the developer because it can make them for motivated to work with the character.
