Technical highlights

In developing 'Asteroids AR,'I leveraged the capabilities of Unity and the versatility of C# scripting to bring this classic game into the augmented reality domain.

Unity's AR Foundation framework served as the cornerstone, enabling us to seamlessly integrate AR functionalities across Android and iOS platforms.

Through custom C# scripts, we implemented dynamic asteroid spawning, real-time motion-based player interaction, and an intuitive shooting mechanic that utilizes touch inputs for an immersive gameplay experience.
