Learning Challenge- sleep

What would happen if you didn’t sleep?


After looking at the selection of videos I decided to watch this video on sleep. I find the brain and the power of sleep to be very interesting. One thing that the video confirmed for me was that you do indeed need sleep !! It was interesting to learn more about the chemical aspect of sleep as in the release of Adenosine and Melatonin, this is something I wasn't too familiar with. I would like to look more into the impact reduced sleep can have on dieting and general health. It would be interesting to see the difference between someone with a good diet and a goo exercise routine with a good sleep pattern vs someone who has a good diet and exercise routine that does not sleep so well. I think the sleeping aspect will play a significant role.
The important thing to take away is don't forget to get those 7-8 hours at night!!!

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

Game Design Document Final

After lasts weeks meeting it was decided that using a sequence of events diagram would help greatly in the organisation and layout of the game. In addition to last weeks post i have added a few more things to the document to help aid me in the future development. In the video embedded I have different sections with plans for my Introduction, Story, characters, gameplay and software, game mechanics, audio, resources and a full story ark of events and layout of the overall game. The game Story ark took the majority of my time this week for my work as it was a very important step in the document. This chart clearly lays out the events, options and outcomes for every decision and direction for the game.
