Overview

The React Unity WebGL Template is a sandbox environment designed specifically for the React Unity WebGL package. It provides an out-of-the-box solution for testing and debugging the features of Unity WebGL projects. The template includes a Create-React-App with both the source and build of a Unity WebGL project, allowing users to easily explore and experiment with the capabilities of the React Unity WebGL package.

Features

• Crate Clicker Game: The template includes a simple game called “Crate Clicker” where players have to click on crates to earn points. This game makes use of all the implemented features of the React Unity WebGL package.
• Loading Screen with Progress Bar: Before the Unity application is rendered, a loading screen is displayed with a progress bar to show the loading progress. This demonstrates the use of loading progression and loaded variables.
• Game Start Button: The game can only be started by clicking on a button rendered in the React application. This event triggers the start of the game and accepts a duration parameter indicating the duration of the game in seconds. This showcases the ability to invoke a method in Unity with a parameter.
• Game Over Event: When the player reaches the end of the game, an event listener in the React application is invoked. This event passes both the final score and the time remaining in the game. This highlights the capability to invoke an event listener in React with a parameter.

Installation

To install the React Unity WebGL Template, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository using the command git clone [repository URL].
2. Navigate to the project directory using cd [project directory].
3. Install the necessary dependencies by running npm install.
4. Start the development server with npm start.
5. Open your browser and visit http://localhost:3000 to access the React Unity WebGL environment.

Summary

The React Unity WebGL Template provides a convenient and ready-to-use environment for working with the React Unity WebGL package. With features like a loading screen, game start button, and game over event, users can fully explore and test the capabilities of their Unity WebGL projects. The template simplifies the process of integrating React and Unity, making it easier for developers to build and deploy interactive web applications.
