Managing collections and levels

A collection is a set of levels logically groups (e.g., by difficulty). Collections and levels are managed by the Levels Manager. You define the list of collections in the Unity Inspector. You can then generate new levels by implementing the method LevelsScript.PrepareLevel().

Menu Manager

The Menu Manager handles multiple events:

• On Start Game: Triggered when the player starts playing.
• On Collection Loaded: Triggered when a collection is displayed in the collection selector popup.
• On Level Started: Triggered every time the player starts a level.
• On Level Completed: Triggered every time the player completes a level.
• On Collection Completed: Triggered when the player completes the last level of a collection.
• On Game Completed: Triggered when the player completes the last level of the last collection.
