prototype

Over the past week I have had so many assignments to submit and with the blogs we have to do each week I have not have had much time to work on my game in unity. I have been watching the two tutorials that I linked in my previous game idea and I have drawn up a few prototypes on sheets of paper. By next week I hope to have a good bit of my game complete to show you.

I am happy with the vision for my game. My level is not going to be very complicates as I find if I add too much into it that it will just become confusing and I will not be able to complete it. I want my final game to hopefully be fully complete .

Everything in my game is going good except for the fact that unity is limited and its hard to customise weapons, characters and other things as you are very limited by the options it has on it.


that is a screenshot from the tutorial I am using . for my game there is a lot I still have to consider. I have to try add in sound efects but not ones that sound really bad and do not fit in with the game at all. This is proving to be quite difficult also.  I am also struggling with the platform aspect of my game as it hard to get too many platforms in that go high so I might just add a few and hope you can catully play it for a bit not just make it unplayable. The goal for me is to make a playable game at the end of this module.


During this Week I will Make a really good start to this game and I will loads to show you next week. I was just super busy with other hand ins recently. I am still confident my game will look very good when it is finished though.

  1. Hello Aaron its me again, I have read through your prototype and it looks quite interesting so far. I like how you are doing a platform sort of game, I really enjoy platformers since they were some of my favorite games when I was much younger. I agree with you about Unity's options available to the player, they are rather limited and can cause issues for the designers involved, I myself have had this problem occur for me before and it was a real pain to resolve. I hope your game idea goes well and that hopefully every issue you are having now is taken care of.

  2. Hey Aaron,
    I think everyone is struggling to keep on top of everything as it can be hard but overall it looks like the start of your game is coming along and you have put a lot of effort into developing your character and it sounds like you have everything planned out you just need to put it in action which is really good anyway I will leave it there hope to read more from you soon.

Introduction Post

My name is Aaron Comiskey and I am 20 years old. I currently study CDM in Blanchardstown and I love the course. I live in Kilmessan, Meath with my family but I hope to move out soon when I get enough money together. I want to be a video editor when I am finished college and maybe work for companies such as BBC or RTE(you have to aim big or you will fail). During this term I want to get better at all things to do with video but I also want to give the other stuff like web design and game development a chance as I may end up loving them and actually want to go into that area after college. I have many hobbies. I am big into the gym and love lifting weights , it makes you feel better and look better so why not do it. I love football and I am a huge Manchester United fan even though we are rubbish now. I play tennis the odd time when I am not too busy also. I post fitness content online not to show off my body or muscles (even though I am proud of the results) More so that I can keep u

Game Brainstorm

Before I even started this blog, I researched for about 35 minutes and found many games that I wanted to base my idea off. These 4 ideas are very different and I will probably go with the one that is easiest to make with unity. So for my first idea I looked up puzzle games. Puzzle games are something that really interest me as you feel so great when you finally crack the puzzle and figure it all out. for this research I used this website that really helped me understand what makes a good puzzle game. from reading this article I found that puzzle games have to be challenging but you have to be subtly pushing the player of the game towards the correct solution. you need to play test every puzzle first to see if it works and do not make it too difficult as the player will get fed up too quickly.making a puzzle game is a puzzle itself as you first have to come up with a puzzle . so I will probably not go with this idea but I am very interested to make a puzzle game in thew future
