Unity Tutorial 01

So far, I've found the use of Unity quite difficult.

I like the idea of game development, and I am very excited and also eager to learn all about it. But, of course, I am only beginning so it is A LOT of information to take in in only a couple of hours. With practice, determination and time, the skills will follow along.

The most difficult part of Unity, which I found quite daunting, is the number of controls and preferences, etc. It is quite hard to get out of the mindset that you're never going to know the use of every single control in the game, but then again, when you think of all of the adobe skills that we've gained as students, and all of the coding language we are now able to read, it isn't at all out of our capabilities.

Saying that... it will not be easy in any way, shape or form. It will without a doubt be a difficult challenge and it will take a lot of time and effort, but I am excited either way to continue practicing and making worlds completely from my imagination and creativity. It will be a lot of fun!

Introduction to a Future Web Developer.

Hey! This post is a little bit less of the 'fun talk' than discussing my favorite game, but it will still be very interesting. I will be discussing ME! Nothing too personal, I will be focusing on the professional side of my everyday life. At the moment, college takes up most of my time, as you would expect. I am currently in my second year of study in Creative Digital Media and so far, I'm loving it! We aren't really too long into Second Year for me to give a fully-fledged opinion on it, but I can definitely share my thoughts from First Year. First Year was hands-down the quickest year of my life. It is crazy how different your life feels when starting in a completely different environment, especially after coming straight from secondary school, like I did. When you're finally studying and working on something that you want to be doing, you have fun and time really does fly. I definitely know that I'm in the right course. My favorite thing about...

Alpha

So, I've managed to complete the three levels that I hoped to complete. I have added a skybox to the levels also, and have changed the color of the text on-screen (the coin-counter) from black to white, as the black text blended in with the background. My Own Screenshot Of The Updated First Level One issue I'm having is with the materials and textures. I have no idea what's happening with them. All materials are now showing up as the default plain white (they have a pink hue in the screenshot due to the skybox), and it won't allow me to add the textures or materials that I intended to use, and that were used in my first playable. Also, when you play the game, and progress to another level, this happens: My Own Screenshot Of Level 2 For some reason, the hue then changes to kind of a beige color. This only happens when you begin on a certain level and progress to another one during gameplay. If I were to begin gameplay on Level 2, for exampl...

Game Design

What is a game?; a question that is surprisingly difficult to answer. It seems like such a simple question to be asked at first, but the more you think, the more complex it gets. What I've noticed from the readings is that the game industry is very subjective. There isn't one single set of terminology to be used by everybody as the industry is far too complex for everybody to settle on a single set of terms. The reason for this is that it is highly unlikely that different areas of the gaming industry will be using the same terms, they are all so different that it is probably impossible to settle on a single set. Like I said, it is very difficult to define a game, and when taking into account my previous point, if the industry can't settle on a single set of terms to be used, how can they settle on a single definition if they're all so different? There are probably hundreds, if not, thousands, of definitions out there for a game. Here are a couple of examples: ...
