2D GAME DEVELOPMENT USING UNITY ENGINE “MINOTSCAPE”

2D game development involves the creation of games that exist within a two-dimensional space, where characters, objects, and environments are represented using two axes: X and Y. This medium offers a diverse range of gameplay possibilities, from side-scrolling adventures to top-down exploration and puzzle- solving experiences. As we grown by playing and enjoying 2D games from our childhood, we always wondered how these games work .This is why the reason we have planned to develop 2D game in order to learn the process. The realm of video games has witnessed a profound transformation over the decades, marked by the evolution of graphics, gameplay mechanics, and player experiences. This research delves into the intricate world of 2D games, exploring their enduring relevance and innovative contributions to the gaming industry. Through an extensive analysis of historical and contemporary examples, this study examines the artistic, technical, and design aspects that have shaped the trajectory of 2D gaming. The objectives of this research are threefold: to uncover the reasons behind the sustained popularity of 2D games in an era dominated by 3D graphics; to investigate the utilization of advanced technologies and techniques in enhancing the visual appeal and interactivity of 2D games; and to highlight the unique design challenges faced by developers in creating compelling gameplay within the constraints of a two-dimensional space.
