Assignments Overview

So I've just been reading over more details on our class assignments and tasks and I gotta say I am pretty excited! I'm intrigued by some of the tasks and can't wait to get started and see what they're like. From the core assignments I'm excited to get started on the reading and unity tasks. I haven't sat down to read something properly in a long time so it would be great to get me started back into reading. I'm also excited to start learning more about Unity and how to use the program. I've known about it for a pretty long time but never had the chance to get started on it until now!

I'm also pretty curious about our project and can't wait to see what that's all about.

This method of doing assignments and handing in work is pretty new to me but I really like it and I think it's a great way to proceed with this module. I like the freedom we have in doing our assignments and being able to go for extra credits so that I have some points stored up in case something happens and I can't submit some assignments. I also like how well the course content is organised and having a calendar to see when everything is due make it really easy to plan and get stuff done.

Out of the extra credit options we have, there are two that grab my attention, Tech Tasks and Growth Mindset. I feel like I'd be interested in the tech task as I like finding and learning about new tech or software I can use. I found growth mindset to be very interesting from the last tasl I had completed and am excited to learn more!

Game Design Document

Image
  (image of my Dundoc design model) This week I started to create my Game Design Document and have wrote up some of the basic things I need to include in it. Starting off I was a bit lost on what to write but I was able to get through it by using a template on Dundoc and looking at other examples to get a better understanding. having to write the Game Design Document gave me a clearer end goal and direction to my game where I was able to define things such as the characters back story and some more way to add a twist to the game such as actually being able to win the game if you get far enough from the tornado. The link to my Game Design Document can be found  here .

Feedback Thoughts

This week I read 2 articles about Feedback for Learning. These were: -  Neil Gaiman's advice on the creative life -  A fixed mindset could be holding you back I found these two articles very useful and insightful and I love their approach and mindset of how receiving feedback should be! Reading through the first article about Neil Gaiman's advice on the creative life I was intrigued by his advice of no matter how tough things are, just go and make good art. That no matter what you're going through be it good or bad you can go and make some good art out of it. I feel it give that mindset of looking at things from the bright side and taking just the positive. Another good point of his was going and making mistakes. The fact that if you're making mistakes it means you are going out and trying new things, you can't learn without trying new things and being ok with making mistakes. I really like this mindset and I'd want to implement it in my life more. The second ar...

Game Vision Statement

Image
  ( image of a running figure icon,  source ) Introduction:  The game that I want to create is an endless runner game with the objective of getting as far as possible and getting more points. There would be obstacles in the way that the player would have to jump over or dodge. Hitting an obstacle would mean they lose. This game would be a challenging game with the player needing fast reflexes once it speeds up. Target Market:  The target market for this game would be people that are ready for a challenge and like to test out their arrow key reflexes. We want the users to enjoy a fast paced game where they keep coming back to get higher scores. Game Genre:  The game genre will be an endless runner where the player has to survive and get as far as he/she can to get more points. Gameplay:  The gameplay for the game will be all about dodging and jumping over obstacles as the player moves forward. The player will have a starting point where once the game is init...
