Crafting Challenge

Crafting challenge, similar to Ballswipe, was created as a small demo project in a short amount of time in order to showcase my uses of the Unity UI system together with other tools like scriptable objects and spawning mechanics.

The objective is to pickup spawned objects and use these items to craft more valuable items which you can sell in order to get more points and level up.

One of the things I wanted to showcase is the use of Unity UI tools to create a SOLID UI that is easy to expand or change. I did this by using different types of layout groups and correct scaling.

There are multiple menu's that can be opened. To handle this correctly, I created a UIManager. Apart from that, pickup items can spawn in certain possitions as shown in the code below. These pickups are scriptable objects of level 1 items. These items can be used to craft level 2 items and these items can be used to craft level 3 items.
