A fast-paced mobile microgame collection set in the chaotic world of NYC Transit. After receiving a glitched MetroCard, witness all the subway shenanigans through rapid-fire mini-games! works on touchscreen only

Mundane Transit Activities is a Unity-based mobile game where players experience the wild side of New York City's subway system. After getting a mysterious glitched MetroCard from a broken machine, you notice all the crazy things happening around you on the subway. Travel through NYC Transit lines, playing microgames at every station while witnessing the urban chaos unfold.

You are the holder of a glitched MetroCard, experiencing the subway through a unique lens. Each microgame represents the shenanigans and everyday chaos of NYC transit - from the perspective of someone who's suddenly aware of all the wild things happening around them. You might control yourself, or briefly experience the world through the eyes of other subway characters you're observing.

integration

• Unity 2022.3 or later
• FMOD Studio (for audio editing)
• Mobile development platform (iOS/Android SDK)

1. Clone this repository
2. Open the project in Unity
3. Ensure FMOD plugin is properly configured
4. Open StartScene.unity to begin
5. Build for your target mobile platform

• The GameManager singleton handles overall game flow
• Each microgame inherits from SingleMicrogameManager
• Subway lines are defined as ScriptableObjects for easy content creation
• Audio events are managed through FMOD integration

The game captures the surreal experience of NYC subway life through a unique lens:

• Anonymous Protagonist: The glitch-card-holder remains deliberately ambiguous - minimal appearance details allow every player to self-insert
• Perspective Shifts: Sometimes you control yourself, sometimes you experience brief moments through other subway characters you're observing
• Grounded Fantasy: All scenarios are based on real NYC subway experiences, but viewed through the "glitched" perspective

• Stay Present: No microgames involve using phones as anything other than cameras - you remain aware of your surroundings
• Quick Decisions: 5-10 second challenges mirror the split-second decisions of subway life
• Binary Outcomes: Simple win/lose states keep focus on reaction and immersion
• Authentic Chaos: Every scenario reflects genuine NYC transit experiences

• 3D Without 3D: Complex spatial concepts achieved through clever 2D scaling and perspective tricks
• Singleton Architecture: Clean microgame management through SingleMicrogameManager.MicrogameSingleton
• Modular Design: Each microgame is self-contained for easy expansion and testing

This appears to be a student project (NHSGA25-Team5). The codebase is well-organized with clear separation between different microgames, making it easy to add new challenges or modify existing ones.

1. Create a new folder in Assets/Scripts/[YourMicrogameName]/
2. Create an empty GameObject at position (0,0,0) and rotation (0,0,0) as the parent
3. Add the SingleMicrogameManager component to this parent object
4. IMPORTANT: Configure all settings in the SingleMicrogameManager inspector - there's a checkbox to ensure you don't forget!

• Use Singleton Reference: Access the current microgame via SingleMicrogameManager.MicrogameSingleton instead of GetComponent calls
• No Camera/EventSystem: Don't include cameras or event systems in your prefab - assume default 2D camera placement
• Two Key Functions:
  • SingleMicrogameManager.MicrogameSingleton.triggerMicrogameEnd(bool didPlayerWin) - Call when player wins/loses before timer expires
  • SingleMicrogameManager.MicrogameSingleton.isGameplayActive - Read-only boolean, true when subway doors are open and gameplay is active

• Keep microgames to 5-10 seconds
• Base scenarios on real NYC subway experiences
• Maintain the "glitched MetroCard holder" perspective
• Use simple win/lose outcomes
• Avoid phone usage except as cameras
• Keep player character details minimal for self-insertion
