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 being able to do my game I have come up with a idea that I think will work much better, the game is based on a pirate called Pete trying to find gold coins. I will create riddles for the player. The ridddles will give clues as to where the gold coins are hidden. they will be hidden behind trees and barrels etc.
I am really hopping that this game will go well and I am going to begin to start creating the game today!!

  1. Hey Chloe!

    I am really glad that you are working hard on your game design. I know how hard it is and its great that your`re pushing through and doing your best. I think the notes are a great way of keeping track of what to do on Unity as I often forget something I learned 5 minutes before hand. I really like the sound of your game. I love pirate games. Will there only be one character to choose from. You should add in Captain Jack Sparrow as a playable character if you get a high enough score, that would be awesome!

    Good luck with the rest of your game, I am sure it will come along great!

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...

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.

The main character of my game will be Freddie the frog. The main goal of the game will be to avoid falling into the stream and and landing on the lily pads. Other goal will be to catch flies with its tongue. I am thinking about having my game as though the eyes of Freddie the Frog but have not fully decided yet. The genre of my game is a platform game. Inspiration for Freddie the Frog: https://www.shutterstock.com/search/cartoon+frog Game play: game play is the features of a video game like the how it is played, graphics and sounds My game will be set in a sort of lake/ stream in a forrest. The main character will be Freddie the frog. He will have to leap from one lily pad to the next to cross the stream. The game will continue to go harder when the lily pads grow smaller making it diff...
