Unity tutorial one

First Youtube tutorial:
For this tutorial I was explained how to download and start up the Unity Software by Jimmy Vegas. I found this part really easy and explained well. He started going through the basic guidelines on Unity and how to start up a new project. I was able to follow his instructions clearly and found his guidelines easy to follow. Then he started explaining how to add a basic 3D shape like a sphere or cube into the game, I was able to add shapes into the game no problem. I then was shown to add a terain and change it around like its shape, size and height.This ere I started to get confused but after trying it a few times and looking up information on other sites I got the hang of it pretty quickly.


Second Youtube tutorial:
For this tutorial I was explained on how to apply textures. He explained how to download and install the textures needed into Unity. I then applied them to try create a mountain in my game. This part I was really confused by and will try get help from someone in the labs next week. I tried my best follow his instructions but struggled to keep up with him. I am going to try again tonight to see if I can get better at Unity. I really hope the hang of this new software soon as I am scared I will fall behind not knowing what to do.

Week 8 : Progress

Honestly I think I have progressed a lot in the past 2 weeks in this module. I am happy with the work I am doing but I know that I need to do even more because I am really behind. I have put in a lot of effort to this module and have been watching unity tutorials every night to try get a better understanding of how to use unity and how to go about creating my game, I am unfortuntely a really slow learner with Unity so I have to watch every video a few times to fully understand it. I have also been making notes on each unity tutorial so I can look over how to fix something in my game without having to rewatch a tutorial. I have a lot more unity tutorials but I am confident I will finish them in time. I will just have to do a few all nighters but if thats what it takes then I will do it!! I also have been set back a good bit unfortunately with the fact that I have to change my game due to not have enough time to create the Freddie the frog game. Although I am disappointed with not bei...

Favourite Game (week 1)

My faveourite game is Super Mario Bros on Wii. I have been playing Mario since I was really young. I love how you can pick different characters to play like Mario, Luigi or Yoshi. I love all of the sounds added to this game like the noise when Mario dies and the game restarts or when Mario gets coins it adds a real fun aspect to the game. I love how every level has a different theme like level 7 is a snow theme and level 8 is a halloween theme.

Reading Week 5 (Games DD)

I found this week reading very interesting. I was particularly interested in Greg Aleknevicus post about Design Considerations. I liked the part of this reading about using shape and colour to distingush pieces. I never really thought about how much difference it can make to a game by using different shapes in addition to colour to distinguish the players amoebae. I also liked the where Greg explains how its good to use different components for different functions. An example of this is how Monopoly money is different from the property cards so players do not get confused between it is obvious they are used for different things. I thought it was a good point  of how it is frustrating when someone loses a part of their game and then is unable to play the game, so it is a good idea to add extra parts or cards with the game incase one is lost. I found this weeks reading really interesting.
