Tech Tip of the Day 

Just want to let you all know that I've added a Twitter Widget to my Sidebar!!

It's linked to my personal Twitter account and its super handy for staying in touch with everything I post and you don't even have to leave my blog to do so!

I highly recommend any fellow bloggers that have Twitter accounts to do the same!

Introduction to a future [Please Enter Career]

Hi all! Just want to write an introduction to who I am and a few things about me. College Life  One of my favorite classes that I took last year was Website Development. I found it enjoyable and interesting to learn all about developing websites from scratch using HTML and CSS. I put my time and effort in and feel like I came out of the module with some good Websites. I feel like this year, while in my 2nd year of this course, I will really enjoy Website Design as I'll learn more about building websites and add on to what I know already. One of my biggest accomplishments of last year was learning a lot of skills like building websites, learning how to use Illustrator and Photoshop and creating video's from my own content. I found it enjoyable and was excited to learn these skills and can't wait to accomplish more using these skills in the future. My goals for this module is to learn more about multimedia, using different platforms available such as Twitter and blogging. Ano...

  (image of character pack on unity,  source ) This week I started on my prototype and I first went looking for some assets I could use in my game. I found the above free character pack in unity which also includes the animations I need for the game like running and jumping. I also looked for a map that I can keep repeating in the game. I found something which works but I'm not sure if it will be my final map I use for the game. It is found at this  link . Another thing I found in the asset store was an Endless Runner sample game that is completed and I got that asset so I can use it as a point of inspiration and help if I get stuck in the future. The game asset is found at this  link . I then wanted to focus on my player movements and I found a tutorial that went over the movements of a character in an endless runner. It is found at this  link . I made the character run, jump, go left and right which as the movements he'll need in the game. I took my time with ...
