Unity Tutorial 01 Blog

After finishing the Unity tutorials, I now understand the basics of the program. The tutorials taught me how to import material into "Unity", and how to make basic terrains like mountains, trees, and grass. They also gave me a quick preview of how to code in "Unity" which I then used to make a gem rotate.

I enjoyed adding assets into the game world. After placing more and more objects, the world started to feel alive. The best part was being able to walk around and explore what I just created. I didn't like that all the assets had to be downloaded directly from their website, I would have preferred some to be preinstalled so I could play around with the program more, before moving on to the next set of tutorials.

I'm looking forward to watching more tutorials and improving my knowledge of "Unity". The tutorials were easy enough to follow because of their slow pace. I still find getting around the programmes interface a little difficult because I've never used "Unity" before.

I think I should play around with the "Unity's" interface a little more before moving on to the next set tutorials so I can better familiarize myself with the programme. By doing this I won't struggle as much with the later more in-depth tutorials.

Game Brainstorm

Game Brainstorm I got my first game idea after looking at endless runner games such as "Temple Run", "Subway Surfers", "Sonic Dash" and "Super Mario Run". I noticed a lot of these games in this genre are on Android and iOS devices. This got me thinking about creating a similar game for PC. The first of these games to become popular was "Temple Run" back in 2011. This game made the genre popular on mobile devices which later inspired the other endless runner games I mentioned. Endless running games have very simple controls, such as jumping over and dodging oncoming obstacles. A player's score is generally determined by how far they travel without hitting any obstacles. The games have simplistic controls but are difficult because you cannot stop the forward momentum of your character. Although these games have different art styles the gameplay is the same. I think this would be a good type of game to make because the gameplay ...

Presentation Day Game Review Week 13

I really enjoyed the day overall. It was nice to see how everyone had progressed with the project over the break. Looking at other peoples was inspiring and thought me a thing or two. Some of my favorite projects I seen on the day where the farm puzzle game, the tile puzzle game and the interactive film. The farm puzzle game looked very professional. In my opinion it looked like a full game for kids. The simplistic puzzles and bright colours are a great design choice. The second game I really enjoyed playing was the tile puzzle game. This game was also a kid’s puzzle game. I was impressed by how Robert coded the game, it looked like it would have taken a long time to make. Although it’s a game for kids, I think he could have added more tiles to later levels to increase the difficulty. The games colour palette gives it a more calming feel. The third project I really enjoyed viewing on the day was the ...

Feedback Thoughts

Feedback Thoughts The first blog I read by was about how too much praise can force a person to develop a fixed mindset. The article pushes the idea that people who are praised too much don't bother to develop new skills or better themselves because they are already "brilliant". This blog also focuses on how a fixed mindset can hold a person back in their workplace. Technological developments are constantly changing the workplace, which forces people to adapt and learn new skills. In the second article, I read the author gives us advice on how to crush self-doubt based on his own experiences as a teacher. He talks about seven different ways and goes into detail about each. I liked this article because the author talks about what he did to crush is own self-doubt. I thought both articles were useful in their own way. I found the first one focused more on the benefits of a growth mindset whereas the second focused on how to achieve a growth mindset. I thought the seven...
