An animated "Dungeon Master" / "Legend of Grimrock" / "Eye of the Beholder" style camera.

An animated camera control script that gives you "Dungeon Master"/"Xenomorph"/"Legend of Grimrock" style WSADQE control in your Unity3D game.

I am a huge fan of the old Amiga game 'Xenomorph' back from the nineties. So I decided to start a similar SciFi themed game (working title 'Xenomorph 2409')

Of course I need similar movement/rotation then thoose games so I started writting this script.

Usage

• Attach the script as a component to your main camera.
• Adjust the grid size to meet your grid.
• Adjust the rotation speed multiplier to your liking.

The controls

• 'W' Moves you 1 cell forward
• 'S' Moves you 1 cell backward
• 'A' Strafe left 1 cell
• 'D' Strafe right 1 cell
• 'Q' Turn left 90°
• 'E' Turn right 90°

NEW! Free look mode

Press the right mouse button to enter a free look mode where you can look round without a grid restriction. Releasing the mouse button will put you back in movement mode.

What it looks like in action

You can watch a work in progress version of "Xenomorph 2409" on YouTube:

Planned improvements

You may want to check out a new and more advanced version of the script https://github.com/LutzGrosshennig/unity3d-advanced-grid-movement

Since this version is much simpler to understand I will leave it as it is.

Have fun, Lutz
