Details with how to make a brick wall go around the screen using a program?

Is this information anywhere yet? I’ve tried finding a post but to no success.

Hello @GameDevCoder.

Warning: this is not the full solution (and there might be better ones), but this is how i want to start.
I used my old brick-breaker (working on “glitch-garden” atm.) and the height of my bricks have not been a common multiple of my screen-height.
So I just took some fixed values in the script. Would be better to calculate these values (see comments in code) on the fly.

This is just a short description, on how i would solve it.

  1. aside the breakable-bricks create a prefab for a massive Brick.
  2. Then I’d create an empty Game-Object called “BrickSpawner” (or however you’d like to call it).
  3. attach a script on this “BrickSpawner” (as said above this was a quick solution with fixed, estimated values just to show you a way on how to start to solve your problem, no top- or bottom-wall in this example).

To quick-solve this I had to put the walls “inside” my playground, as i got the floor/top/front/left-colliders outside out the playground in my original game.

Result:

Hope that helps & have a nice unity.
