2D Chicken Shooting

To optimize bullet collision and performance, an object pooling technique was implemented to reuse bullets instead of continuously instantiating and destroying them. This significantly reduced memory allocation and improved FPS stability. Additionally, layer-based collision and raycasting were used to make collision detection more efficient, preventing unnecessary physics calculations and ensuring smooth gameplay even during intense shooting sequences.

To enhance the visual appeal and make the game world feel dynamic, a parallax scrolling system was introduced. Multiple background layers were designed to move at different speeds, creating a sense of depth despite the 2D environment. This helped prevent visual monotony and added an engaging, immersive experience. Alongside this, a balanced weapon and power-up system was developed using Scriptable Objects, allowing for easy addition of new weapons with distinct properties. Cooldown mechanics and damage variations were fine-tuned to ensure fair yet exciting gameplay progression.

Enemy spawning and behavior were designed to be unpredictable, preventing repetitive gameplay. A randomized spawning system was implemented, ensuring that enemy types, speeds, and attack patterns varied in every session. To maintain smooth camera movement and avoid off-screen gameplay issues, camera boundaries were set, and a bullet destruction system was introduced. This ensured that bullets and enemies that moved beyond the screen were removed efficiently, preventing unnecessary resource usage and maintaining optimal game performance.
