Usage of DOTS/ECS in this project
The majority of the game was made in Unity DOTS ECS aside from the UI and Audio Managers.
The game is based around a series of boids simulations running in parallel jobs to manage the movement of all the aircraft, missiles and even surface ships. The surface ships have basic obstacle avoidance to allow them to navigate around obstacles;
Every bullet and cannon shot is an entity that is constantly calculating a ballistic trajectory and the game leverages Unity DOTS's ability to instantiate, update and destroy entities efficiently to put on a spectacle of firepower.
I hope you have fun trying out this simulator, be careful not to get stuck in there.
To play the game, download and unzip the file, then open the application titled: TMG 2024 DOTS Game Jam ARMADA
