2) The player's guns, the projectiles of which have different mechanics (chain lightning, homing missiles, projectiles with area damage, slowing down projectiles).

3) Different types of opponents with different behavior, which can be customized as needed.

Technology stack:

• NavMeshPlus and AI Navigation - to organize the behavior of the hero. Plugin for Unity that provides enhanced navigation capabilities for AI agents in a game or simulation. It extends Unity's built-in navigation system (NavMesh) with additional features and functionality, such as dynamic obstacle avoidance, multi-level navigation, and advanced pathfinding algorithms.
  
  
• DOTween - for various procedural animations of the interface and not only
  
  
• Universal Render Pipeline - lightweight rendering pipeline for Unity that provides optimized performance for a wide range of platforms, including mobile devices, consoles, and desktop computers.
  
  
• ShaderGraph - visual interface for creating shaders in Unity, which allows developers to create custom shaders without having to write any code. It is a node-based system that allows for the creation of complex materials and visual effects, with a simple and intuitive interface that can be used by both beginners and experienced developers.
  
  
• TextMeshPro - text rendering solution for Unity game developers that provides enhanced control and customization over text elements in a game.
