Unity – Vehicle Obstacle Course

A functional vehicle obstacle course game built in Unity as part of the Unity Learn Junior Programmer Pathway.

What It Is

A 3D driving game where the player navigates a vehicle through a series of obstacles. The project is fully playable and demonstrates foundational Unity development skills.

What I Built & Learned

• Implemented vehicle movement using Unity's physics and input systems
• Worked with Rigidbody components to simulate realistic vehicle behavior
• Used MonoBehaviour scripts to handle player input and game state
• Structured scenes using GameObjects, components, and the Unity Editor
• Understood the Unity game loop: Start(), Update(), and event-driven logic

What I'd Build Next

If I continued this project I would:

• Make the road circular and add a lap timer with a high score system using persistent data
• Introduce dynamic obstacles that move on a set path using lerp/coroutines
• Build a simple main menu and game over screen using Unity's UI system
