Week 9 Progress

So for the next part of review week we have to review all of are work so far in this term and say what we could do better. I am happy that I get to look back on all of my old work that I did this semester as looking back on old work really makes you see how far you have come or how far you not come . each case will help you improve inn whatever it is you are doing.

Overall I am very happy with my progress in this module and I have only missed liked 3 blogs. I tend ti get a lot of the blogs done on Monday as that is are day of from college and that sis going very well. At the moment I am struggling a lot on my final game but I will keep doing all the extra credit to make up for it and this should get me the pass that I need to go forward with this course.  I want to start putting more effort into unity from now on and actually giving each tutorial a fair chance because a lot of the time I have just given up half way and tried to write about things that I really had no clue about. I still did every tutorial but I know myself I could have tried harder with some of them.


I chose this image as it really hits home about life in every aspect not just this module. nobody is going to bail you out and if you want something you have to push yourself to new heights you never thought you could before.That is the same mindset I have with fitness and every time I go to the gym I try to push myself to new heights I never though I could reach before,

overall I think I am managing the work load very well and getting all the blogs done on time. I just need to use unity more and get more comfortable with that but so var its all good

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

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

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
