Updates, insights, and stuff.
Been working on turning that glass panel template into something actually useful – a clock-and-currency widget for the top-right corner. Figured I'd document the process since it covers some good UI-layout techniques that might help others (or future me when I forget how I did this).
This walkthrough shows how to take the reusable glass panel from Part 1 and transform it into a functional widget that displays time, date, and currency info. The goal is to build a rough prototype layout using mostly Inspector-based setup. We'll add the dynamic scripting later.

Everything's done through the Inspector except for the blur shader. I wanted to make something I could come back to without having to remember all the details.
If you're curious, this is about creating a frosted-glass look for UI panels: clean, adjustable, and easy to reuse across different screen sizes. Hope it helps if you're working on something similar!

When faced with technical challenges, creative blocks, or seemingly impossible features, we don't back down. Instead, we break down the problem into manageable pieces, research, experiment, and iterate until we find a solution. This mindset has helped us overcome countless obstacles in our development journey.
Whether it's implementing complex game mechanics, optimizing performance, or creating engaging narratives, we believe that with the right approach and determination, any challenge can be conquered. This philosophy not only helps us create better games but also fosters a culture of continuous learning and growth within our team.
As we continue to develop our games, we'll share stories of how this motto has helped us overcome various challenges. Stay tuned for more insights into our development process!
