Veggie Rush

About Veggie Rush

Veggie Rush is a small casual game where you pilot a hovering drone above garden plots, plant seeds, and harvest grown crops to reach a score target before time runs out. Different seeds have different growth times and risk... harvest for points, but don’t let plants explode or you’ll lose points!

Controls

• Move drone: W A S D
• Plant / harvest: E
• Change seeds: 1 2 3
• Open pause menu: Esc

Tools used

• Prefabs: used to create reusable objects such as seeds, plants, and soil plots.
• ScriptableObjects: used to store plant configuration data (growth duration, score rewards, explosion penalty, icons...).
• New input system: used to handle drone movement and player interactions (planting, harvesting, switching seed types) in a clean and flexible way.
• Unity UI (Canvas) + TextMeshPro: used for the score display, timer, seed selection, and menus to ensure clear and high-quality text.
• Coroutines: used to manage timed behaviours such as growth stages and explosion delays.
• Audio system (AudioSource + clips): used to give sound feedback when planting, harvesting, changing seeds, and losing points, as well as a background music.
• Animation / scaling via code: the plant growth animation is handled through gradual scaling and color transitions using coroutines.
• Scene and Hierarchy organisation: plants are grouped dynamically under dedicated parent objects to keep the hierarchy clean and easy to debug.
