Unity ui&vfx

Project Summary:
Used Unity 2019.4 to create UI popup window that works for both portrait and landscape ratios (16:9 , 9:16). Animate the stars with Unity particle effects.
​

Features:

1. Tapping 'Win Game' showcases the Congratulations UI.
2. Congratulations pop-up animates in.
3. Stars show up with a bounce animation.
4. Stars fly up and counter increments.
5. Tapping 'Collect' to hide UI and shows 'Win Game' button.

Optimization Done on UI & Particle Effect:

• Applied ’Raycast Target’ to interactive UI elements to avoid unnecessary graphic raycaster performance.​
• Avoided using the UI layout group.
• Try to keep the ‘Max particle’ setting as low as possible.
• Mostly use unlit particle effects.

Thoughts on future optimization:

• Could potentially use nested canvas to divide up the static and dynamic UI elements. 
• Combine the particle effect for each element into a single sprite sheet or pack texture into a single atlas or material.
