Favourite Games - Uncharted Video Game Series

    My favourite game's of all time is the, "Uncharted" series. These games are third-person action adventure games, that have a great storyline which continues through all games. The games were developed by Naughty Dog Studios and published on the Sony PlayStation. The franchise has seen games releases on multiple different platforms including the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, and PlayStation 4.

    Although the first three games, "Drakes Fortune", "Among Thieves", and "Drakes Deception" was originally released on the PlayStation 3, Naughty Dog later released a remastered version of all three games on a single disk for the PlayStation 4 in 2015. These games all follow the same storyline but finally end with their 2016 release, "Uncharted: A Thief's End". The franchise has also seen other releases, such as, "Golden Abyss" and "The Lost Legacy". These games follow a separate storyline but are just as enjoyable as the others in my opinion.

    The main protagonist Nathan Drake, is a charismatic adventurer who travels all over the world in search of the hidden relics and lost cities. I like the characters personality because he is strong-willed and often makes jokes, which kept me entertained while playing through the games.

    I have played all these games multiple times on all platforms and have enjoyed every minute of it. If your looking for a game that has a great storyline, interesting characters and spectacular gameplay look no further! This game has the perfect balance of exploration, gunplay, and platforming that of which never gets boring. For the better experience, I would recommend playing the remastered games on the PlayStation 4. The remastered version has improved on graphics and a higher frame rate for a smoother gaming experience.

    Overall my favourite game in the franchise would have to be, "Uncharted: A Thief's End". It was a perfect ending to the story, which rounds up all the games storylines into one. When I completed the game, it left me wanting to play more. This game series is truly one for the history books, as each game has won multiple awards.

Introduction Into My (Awesome) Life

The names Conor, and in this blog I want to tell you a little about myself. I'm 20 years old and have lived in Dublin my entire life. I am currently a second-year student studying "Creative Digital Media" in Blanchardstown. I really enjoy my course and plan on getting a job in this industry when I get my degree. I'd describe myself as a determined and hardworking person who loves a good laugh. After working hard in year one it's safe to say I learned a lot. The best class I took last year was photography. I loved that this module required us to go outside to take photos because it offered a nice break from working inside all day. Although I liked most of my modules last year, I found modules that involved film or photography to be the most enjoyable. My goal for this year is to continue working hard and improve on my work. Speaking of working hard, we all need a break every now and again. Over the break, I took the opportunity to travel to several countries, i

Final GDD

This week's blog finalizes my game design document. I further developed my document this week by adding a lot more detail and some code. I looked at different Youtube videos to find code that I will need to make my game. I plan to finish the game a week early so it leaves time to test for bugs and or any other changes. I want to develop the game environment first so I can focus on the coding side of things. I want to focus more on the coding because it's more important than the visuals for this assignment. It will also require more of my time because I find coding to be the most difficult part of game development. I can use some of the same code in Unity tutorials for my game, so I only needed to research code for my games HUD, main menu, countdown timer, and gem counter.  After finalizing my GDD document this week, I started prototyping a map for my game. I imported some of the assets from the Unity tutorials and changed the textures the look of the textures using photosho
