Introduction
This project is a 2D mobile game named Flappy Bird, developed using Unity and C#. It repli-
cates the classic gameplay of navigating a bird through a series of pipes using simple tap con-
trols. The game includes dynamic obstacle generation, real-time scoring, and interactive UI el-
ements like pause, game over, and leaderboard screens..
Design methodology and software process model
Design Methodology:
Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) is utilized to ensure modular, scalable
design via encapsulated game entities such as Bird, Obstacle,
GameManager, and UIManager.
Process Model:
The Incremental Process Model is used to iteratively build game
components like physics, UI, and scoring. This supports better testing, user
feedback incorporation, and feature expansion.
System overview
The game runs on Android and simulates a bird flying through moving pipes. Each successful
pass increments the score. Collision results in game over. The app contains:
Core Features:
• Tap-to-fly mechanic
• Obstacle generation
• Real-time scoring
• Pause & Game Over screens
• Sound effects and animations
Architectural design
A component-based architecture is adopted. Key layers:
• UI Layer: Unity Canvas components, buttons, and panels
• Logic Layer: Handles game state, scoring, and input
• Physics Layer: Unity Rigid body 2D and colliders
• Data Layer (Future): Firebase for leaderboard

Design models
Class Diagram:
• Classes: Bird, Obstacle, GameManager, ScoreManager, UIManager
Sequence Diagram:
• Player taps → Bird Flaps → Collides with Obstacle → Game Over
State Transition Diagram:
• Game States: Idle → Playing → Paused → Game Over
DFD (Context Level):
• Inputs: Tap
• Processes: Update Position, Check Collision, Update Score
• Outputs: Display Score/Game Over
Data design
While the game is mainly event-driven, future versions may use Firebase. Basic local data stor-
age includes:
Typ
Variable Description
e
score int Player's current score
highScore int Highest score stored locally
isDead bool True if bird has collided
birdY float Bird's vertical position

Algorithm & Implementation
Tap Input Handling:
if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) {
birdRigidbody.velocity = Vector2.up * flapForce;
}
Collision Detection:
void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D collision) {
GameOver();
}
Scoring Mechanism:
void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D col) {
if (col.CompareTag("ScoreZone")) {
score++;
UpdateUI();
}
}
