Updated GDD ( week 6 )



This week our project work we have been finalizing and fleshing out our GDD. This has been a very important step in the overall development of our project. The purpose of this was to prepare the tasks I intend on completing and act as a guideline to completing my project. In this GDD I discuss the important elements of the game. I  divided this into different sections such as

  • Characters 
  • Environments 
  • Gameplay/controls 
  • Art design 
  • Sound design
  • UI design 
I then disused each element included in these headings in more detail. Such as I discussed how and why the layout of the map design will be and how it will impact the gameplay overall feel of the game. I discuss the importance of each element in enough detail to allow me to refer to the document while working on the game. This will prevent me from missing details and allowing me to keep on track of what I have to do and what exactly it is what I want to do

Project Blog Update!!! This week was an important week for the multimedia project as we had the opportunity to show off the work we have so far and get some feedback on it. I basically had a good amount of my structure for the story and game complete and some story inserted just to give people an idea oh what the story was and how the game work. I think everything went ok and people got the idea of what I was going for. This wee I am hoping to finish the story comply and add in some more branching ark to give the player more opportunities to come back and replay the game.  With this I can start to fully write my story and then work on random events to help with reputability and over all make the game fun and enjoyable to play

Final!

Sooooooo this is it, the final blog.  The game I want to talk about is Dani's game. I followed this development pretty much when I could and always thought that it was coming along well. I said that I was looking forward to seeing it fully completed. I think a lot of effort has gone into the project and lots of learning and understanding had to be done to pull everything together and tie it all up well to make it work fully. I think everything fit well and worked fully worked. The graphics and textures all fit together and helped create a good look to the world and made it all unite as one. I like that the game fully works and flows together well, its pretty clear where I have to go and what I have to do, this means it isn't frustrating and I don't really have to waste time figuring out what I have to do. I do feel there are a lot of assets brought in, I think it would have been cool to see more of her own art and fully created assets. I think this would have g...

Preparing for Academic Writing week 3

Preparing for Academic Writing For week 3 we sat down in class and used an interactive mind mapping software known as coggle. The point of this experiment was to sit down and identify the many categories and steps that go into creating a successful project. An example of how we created this map was by putting down big broad topics and then branching the out to the smaller sections which make up the full project all combined together. This could be the topic of design, as design is a very broad topic we identified much smaller elements that contribute to the end design, Design could span out to many sub-categories such as UI, typography, graphics and story + narrative. The point of this mindmap was to identify all elements that will be involved in the project and break them down further to make sure we have a checklist of elements and give us a good way of including all the relevant factors and not skipping over anything that could contribute...
