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.

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 . He explained gaming in a really simple way which I liked as I am not very familiar of the different types of games. He explained how a game is a play activity with rules that involves a conflict.  Then I read another post called "The essence of Eurostyle gaming" by  Lewis Pulsipher  http://www.thegamesjournal.com/articles/Essence.shtml  , . 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...

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.
