Fill is a Unity game prototype built around memory, color recognition, and quick aim. At the start of each round, players see color-coded baskets for a few seconds. The baskets then reshuffle, hiding the color section while leaving enough of the basket visible to aim at.

When the next projectile color appears, the player has to remember which basket matches that color and shoot the projectile into the correct target. Correct matches increase the score, while misses challenge the player to rely on recall and pattern memory.

The experience is designed as a compact memory-training game: easy to understand, quick to replay, and focused on improving attention, recall, and response timing.

01. The Challenge

The challenge was designing a simple game loop that tests memory without slowing down the action. Players need enough time to study the color-coded baskets, but the game still has to feel fast, playful, and score-driven once the baskets shuffle and the colors are hidden.

Design Process

Building the memory loop

The core design started with a simple sequence: show the answer, hide the answer, then ask the player to act from memory. The baskets are color-coded at the beginning of the round so players can study their positions. After a short reveal period, the baskets reshuffle and hide their color bands.

Unity controls the timing, basket movement, projectile color selection, collision detection, and scoring. The main design goal was to keep the mechanic readable: players always understand what they are aiming at, but they have to remember which visible basket corresponds to the current projectile color.

The gameplay video shows the prototype loop in action, including the reveal phase, shuffled basket positions, hidden color cues, projectile shooting, and score feedback.

Fill game showing color-coded baskets before the memory challenge starts — Players first study the basket colors before the targets reshuffle and hide their color cues.

Fill gameplay with shuffled baskets and projectile color matching — After the shuffle, players aim based on memory instead of visible color labels.

Unity memory game interface showing projectile aiming and scoring — The scoring loop rewards players for matching each projectile color to the remembered basket.
