Project Testing

Project testing and progress 



So this week I have been really felling the pressure of all the work and trying to budget my time better so I dont fall too far behind. I started last week with some issues with unity crashing and performing very slowly, luckily this was fixed with a simple uninstall and a reinstall. With my newly installed unity I have be trying to catch up on creating my landscape and working on better movement for my character. I have found some great tutorials to help me with more fluid running and to allow for pressure sensitive controls for jumping. The better jumping means I can set platforms and spaces more accurately as I know exactly how the player can reach the platform. All this should allow for a better user experience. I have my first person controller working fine and I have a good chunk of the layout formed. The task at hand is really deciding the best way to  lay everything out to create a challenging and fun level for the player to run through. I have My beginning spawn point and I have coded the point where if the player falls the start right back at that beginning point. My real challenge is spawning in enemies and getting them to attack the player. I have seen a few different ways to create them but its a bit of a process and then the other task being when they make contact with the player it makes the player respawn at the beginning.

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...
