Update - Week 11

In Today's blog, I will be discussing what I did for this week for our project and what task I have completed for the development of the game. This week we all met up on Thursday to discuss what we have all completed so far and what needs to be done soon. Last week a calendar was drawn up in order to keep track of what is due and when.  This was done so each member of the team knew what they needed to do and by what date it was to be finished. 

 This week I updated the Asset list by adding the price of all of the assets that you have to pay for. I did this so that you would straight away know how much the individual asset costs and you have it all in one document.  I thought that this was a good idea because that way it would be easy to keep track of the cost of the assets. All of the assets that you have to pay for are all under ten euro as if we were to pay for assets this would ensure our budget wouldn't become unmanageable. I added up the cost of all the assets that are in the document currently so we would have an idea of a budget but, that being said some assets that I found that are free are quite similar to the some of the ones that you pay for therefore this total isn't an accurate representation of our proposed budget if any for the game.  This simply adding up the price of all the assets that were found so far to get an idea of how much it would cost but that doesn't mean that any of the assets that cost money will be used or maybe just a few will be used for the final game if needed. 

 Here are some screenshots of the Asset list as of Week 11 after updates -

    Hey,
    Nice to see all your research into the assets that will be useful for the project. You have done a lot of work to get the ones we need to make our game as good as it can be. You made the job of the game creators so much easier by documenting the links and prices for the asset packs so the team can budget where they need to. Be great to see what's next and I wish you all the best.

    Only up from here!!!!

Introduction to a future something....?

Introduction Post: The best class that I took last semester was 'Design Process & Practice'. I really enjoyed this module last semester because I found it to be very interesting and creative. I really enjoyed using the program, 'Illustrator' when I was making posters, leaflets and some lab task work. I found it to be exciting because it was a module where I could let my creativity fly! I also found the group assignment to be informative and fun. I found working in a group to be an experience which intrigued me. I worked on projects in a group for an assignment and we would meet up and describe our ideas and do brainstorms. We also chose to do one task each and come in and meet up and discuss and present what we each had done. I chose to do the research and statistics part because I taught that i would found that job to be the most interesting for me. This module really helped me gain a better understanding of how to use the program, 'illustrator' and how t

Final Game Design Document

I have completed my final GDD (Game Design Document). My previous GDD didn't have enough detailed information in it where I would be able to hand it over to games developer and programmer. It would have not been enough information for my game to be produced and made the way that I wanted. Therefore I updated my DunDoc . All of the required information for my game will be in my GDD DunDoc. There is now a game architecture feature in my GDD as well as any other information that was needed. Screenshot of my DunDoc GDD

Game Vision Statement

Welcome back to my blog! Today, I will be discussing my chosen game genre and what the game-play of my game will be like. The genre that I chosen for my game is a children's interactive educational story based game. The style of the game will be simplistic yet, cute meaning that I will have 'cute' looking characters in my game to appeal to children. The game will be colourful and 'animated' looking meaning, it won't have a realistic style to it. I believe choosing this type of style will appeal to my target audience for my game. My game will be story-based which means that the player will choose from a list of choices in response to for example; a question or a route that they may take.                There will be many interesting tasks and choices that the player must make in order to not bore the player resulting in the player quitting the game before completing it. The game will be very interactive which will  hopefully keep the player interested and inve
