Welcome back to my blog!, So I have finally started building my prototype for my game and at first I was really excited to finally begin making some progress. Unfortunately I went to go and download the 'Fungus Plugin' from the asset store and I did that and everything went perfectly fine. I thought that it would be easier for me to use the Unity Tutorials project scenes as my guide for beginning my prototype because I didn't have much time to do this.

I did this because I felt that it would help guide me in my progress during creating my game and implementing different features and elements.

I found this tutorial really helpful and I feel confident enough to now implement a game timer in my game on a specific game mode. The voice over was spoken very clearly an...

Welcome back to my blog!, In today's blog I will discussing my thoughts after reading through the articles for this week. This weeks reading is about "fun" being just another word for "learning". You can find the article here . This article focuses on why those aspects are fun.   The article lists and describes different types of fun, here are some of them: Sensation:   Games can engage the senses directly.This   includes physical movement (good for building muscle) and looking at and hearing things that are interesting (good for detecting opportunities or dangers). Fantasy: allows the kind of “what-if” scenario part of our brain to get stronger, allowing us to come up with novel ideas. Narrative:  This is useful for passing on vital information and experience to others in your group, increasing the chance that  all  of you will survive.# Challenge:  This is a convenient way for different humans to show dominance over one anot...
