Explore the implementation of various software architecture patterns within the Unity Engine. This project demonstrates how the same game can be developed using different architectural approaches, providing practical insights into their strengths and trade-offs.
If you find this repository helpful, consider giving it a star! Your support motivates further development and helps others discover this resource.
Each architecture pattern is applied to create the same game, allowing for a direct comparison of coding styles, maintainability, scalability, and overall design efficiency. This approach offers a hands-on understanding of how different patterns affect game development in Unity.
The Game in Question, a Survivors Clone.
For a more detailed breakdown of the code structure, see the Project Overview.
The Spaghetti pattern is characterized by its lack of formal structure. Code is often written without clear organization, leading to tangled dependencies and difficulties in maintenance. This pattern is used as a baseline to highlight the advantages of more structured methodologies.

This pattern is central to Unity's design philosophy, emphasizing modularity and reusability. Game objects are built using separate components, each responsible for specific functionalities. This approach enhances code readability, maintainability, and allows for easy iteration and testing of different game behaviors.

Play the game made with the GameObject Component Pattern!
This is Unity's new Paradigm pattern. It's desgined to work similarly to the GameObject Component Pattern, but leans of an extended use of Scriptable Objects to provide better Dependency Management compared to traditional methods.
