Assignments

After reading about the assignments that we have to choose from over the coming weeks I am particularly intrigued by the Unity3D and our opportunity to work on our own Projects. I am also looking forward to the extra credit tasks like the Tech Tasks, HEART and Commenting on other peoples posts.

Game Design

Cover of ' The Art of Computer Game Design ' by Chris Crawford, 1984 After finishing reading through the Reading Material for Week 2 I have learned some things I didn't know previously. For instance I did not know that the card game 'Magic: The Gathering' helped to " triple the size of the hobby games industry ". I also did not realise there was such thing as a cross between a LARP (Live Action Role-playing Game) and traditional theater, such as the play ' Tony & Tina's Wedding '. Reading through the articles made me realise that game design goes much further past the traditional board and card games and usual video games. I had heard about LARP and "Choose Your Own Ending" books, but they do not come to mind when you think about game design. I know that when it comes to creating my own game I will have to take different game types into consideration, and they could in turn become influences and inspirations for my own game...

Favourite Game

My Favourite Game Battlefield 1 is currently my favourite game to play. I have been playing it since it's release in 2016 and although I take a break from it to put time into other games I always find I come back to it. Battlefield 1's campaign is short and fun, with a lot of insight into the history of WW1. The multiplayer feature is where I spend my time in the game though, playing in battles of 32 vs. 32 players on each team, spread across some of the largest battlefields of WW1. The game is beautifully made, with realistic graphics and animations and the playable maps in the game take direct influence from photos and stories of the real battlefields from the time.

Growth Mindset: Quotes

This week for extra credit I decided to try my hand at one of the Growth Mindset tasks. Quote 1 THE DECISION TO TRY "I often fall into the trap of saying good job, awesome when reviewing people's work. It used to be a game in high school to see who could critique "you put the wrong date" so that we could have our one correction out of the way. I definitely will work on being more specific with feedback, as I know how much I dislike non-specific feedback." I picked this quote from the list as I love most feedback I get, positive and negative. The kind of feedback I do not like though is the "good job" and "awesome" or what I hear a lot is "oh yeah, that looks grand". I love to hear constructive criticism, giving me ideas of how I can improve my work. Quote 2 WHY NOT? "The way I would like to use "Why Not?" is in the sense of saying yes. Why not make time to see your friends? Why not make a random ...
