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...

unity fail

to be brutally honest I never understood unity at all this year and tried to mainly focus on the readings and all the extra credit. hoping that would be enough to pass this course. I still have very high points as I have done so many extra credit and all the blogs / unity tutorials. I have a game started but to be honest it was a mess and with al;l the other assigments it is not going well. I will try get more of it done to show on wednesday but I am not too confident. over this course I have really enjoyed the readings and I have done the extra credit lots but my final game is kinda all over the place. I wanted to do a platformer but that failed big time and the coding in this just makes no sense at all to me.

Unity tutorial 01

The first thing that I did before I started the tutorial was to watch all the jimmy vegas videos linked on the website., these really gave me a great starting place before I actually attempted the tutorial for myself. The tutorial that I did was the first one I saw called the creator dev . It was an alien shooter game. The really good thing was that you actually got to play the game before you went to make it so you could get a glimpse of how the mechanics were meant to work. The part I enjoyed the most was making my own enemies to shoot. I was disappointed that there was only really two character prototypes to go off but I did the most with them that I could. I found it very difficult to connect different pieces of the course together and make them actually work but eventually I got it right and it was pretty satisfying.This unity tutorial was very good but in general it was very limited and I am excited to get into more in depth unity tutorials in the very near future. overa...
