Workshop 01

In my first class for Multimedia I was told I had to do a workshop. For this worksop we were asked to explain and image similar to the one shown here

At first when I looked at the image I thought it would be easy enough to explain. Then when I thought about it it started to confuse me. I do not drive and have not even done my theory test yet so I do not really understand the rules of the road. Obviously I would not understand the rules of the road not have studied them. Then I thought to myself  that I am in a car with my parents driving nearly everyday so how could I not understand how I had never noticed how a crossroads worked before. This really frustrated me. The problem is that in my head I understand it but writing it out or explaining it is something I found really difficult. This is obviously something I need to work on and I'm hopping that writing in this blog will help me get more comfortable writing out my work done in class and assignment work. Writing in a blog is something that I will have to get used to as I have never done anything like this before I am excited to learn more about blogging.

Game Design Reading Week 2

  Designing games by Tynan Sylvester After completing the reading assigned to us for Week 2 I have learnt a lot of new things I did not know before.  When I read the first piece we were given "Don't be a Vididiot"by Greg Crositkyan http://www.costik.com/vidiot.html .

Before reading this I had never even heard of a "eurostyle" game. I then read the post and got a better understand of what makes a game a eurostyle game.  Euro games have great visual interest, simple rules, no player elimination and the game does not take more than an hour to play. Reading this article gave me a better understanding of different ga...

Reading Week 10

I found this weeks reading week to be really good and interesting. I am really not good at taking critisism so it was nice to read an article about the positive sides of criticism. I like what he said how about how when giving criticism its good to concentrate on the things people can improve on rather then point out all the things they did wrong. He also said the main thing to concentrate on criticism and feedback is that its not unbiased and that factual. I like how part of the article he gives examples on the difference between good criticism and bad criticism.
