week 1

This module is completely new to me as I have never even attempted to make a game before and I have never used a blog before. I really like the way this module is done as you get chances each week to get marks and not all the marks go on the game at the end. I also think the blogs will be a very fun and a great way to keep people engaged in the module. I am happy I get to write about my experience as maybe some of the problems I have and some things that worked for me will help others when they read my blog.

I am really looking forward to making a game and seeing if I have interest in that area. I never though I wanted to go into game development but when I see this module and how fun unity looks to use it may change my mine. I hope that I will pick up the tools in unity pretty quickly and hopefully I will make a playable game at the end of this module.

I love the interactivity of this course as it keeps us all connected and will allow us all to help each other. I usually do not like group work as it always ends in arguments as someone does not pull their weight or someone has a different idea than another person .

Overall I am very excited to start this module fully and I will give it my best effort to hopefully pass with flying colours.

Unity tutuorial 06

Hello guys and welcome back to my blog. For this blog I will talk about my experience with the unity tutorial 6 . As you should already know I am doing the create with code side of unity this term and I really want improve my overall game coding skills. I am happy with progress so far but I still have a long way to go.                                                 Sound and effects The first tutorial was actually pretty easy but it was really enjoyable. I had tried to add in sound effects to my final game last semester but it failed badly . this tutorial really simplified the process of adding audio to a game and made it actually really easy to follow.  I really enjoyed the quiz at the end of this tutorial even though I got one answer wrong which annoyed me a bit .                         ...

Hello guys and welcome back to my blog. For today's reading we had to continue from the research we were doing last week but thew difference was we had to a pply thematic analysis  to your resources and group common themes this week.   The first thing I did was read all the steps very carefully. I liked how it went into detail in discursive writing as that is something I am very passionate about, I used to have a blog years ago when I would be discursive and discuss manchester united games but I gave that up . I completely agree with the point about supporting your argument with evidence as if you do not how is anyone going to trust that what you said is credible  summaries to me are vital , I sometimes read the summary of an article first and that usually gives me a good outlook on if this article will be worth reading or not. today I went and found more resources online which I will add to my matrix. I...

Welcome back to my blog guys. I was kind of hoping there would be no bogs to do this term at all as they were pretty stressful last semester but I will get on with it and give it my best shot. This module actually sounds very interesting and I ma excited to keep researching and adding to my parts of the book. I spent way over 3 hours doing research for this. My two chosen topics are key components of game design and stages of game design. these are two topics that kind of excite me and make me want to dive into these blogs head first. the first thing I did was list all the who, what ,why ,where and when. these questions actually really helped me get a focus on what I was researching these are my answers who- I started my who by finding all about the people behind the games, I found out that first game was made in 1972 and it was all very interesting what- for the what part I went into detail about  what are the key elements in games . in my opinion a story and good visuals a...
