Week 9 Progress

Hello! In this blog post, I will be discussing my progress to date with this module along with a few other topics.

Looking back

My progress so far is definitely not something to be fully proud of. I have had a couple of bumps along the road that definitely put a strain on my progress, but in regards to where I am now, I'm quite happy as I feel like I've caught up, I know what I did wrong, and I most definitely will not be making the same mistakes as I did.

My weekly routine wasn't the best, It definitely got thrown around the place when pother big deadlines got in the way. I know now that the reason for this is because I didn't make a schedule for any other modules, so my time management was not up to par.

My favorite class assignments are probably blog comments. It's nice to see other people's work and be able to connect with others. I also used a few extra credit assignments after my little 'bumps in the road' to catch up. I will also need to use a few more extra credit assignments just to get me over the line for a C grade, as I am just a couple of points off (bringing into account that I will fully complete the remaining weeks).

Looking Forward

For the second semester, the first thing I want to do is begin with the biggest effort I can. A big problem I had in this semester was I started off thinking we would be eased into the work and given time until we got used to it again. Of course, I was wrong, so I now know that I need to be ready to hit the ground running.

Also, a huge thing that I need to sort out is my time management! I want to plan ahead on all modules and give myself the correct amount of time for each module and allocate it so that I am not leaving things last minute, and so I also have some spare time on perhaps another day if something happens to go wrong.

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 Brainstorm

My brainstorming session has gone a bit better than I expected. I've come up with some interesting ideas that I think will be quite fun to experiment with and create. 1. A horror game. 2. A mystery game. 3. A maze game. 4. An obstacle-course game. Although I don't play games, and barely ever have, I feel like I have some fun ideas for games to create. A Horror Game: I'm a big fan of horror movies, so this is where my inspiration for this idea has been drawn from. The idea in my mind is a character, completely lost and confused in a field of some sort, they start to explore and find paths to follow. On these paths, they find items that trigger memories about why they're there and how they got lost. They eventually arrive at a barn, where they explore some more and find unrecognizable corpses around the area. They then get hit over the head with something, wake up with fully realized memories and an instinct to escape. (I haven't fully developed the story bu...
