James Reynolds and I have spent the past few weeks creating the GDD and made it into a PowerPoint presentation that you can see a video of above.
My role as Project Manager is to:
- Create reasonable and achievable goals for all team members. - Keep in contact with each team-leader to maintain communication and make sure there is no confusion. - I will also help with the programming.

Introduction A photo of me taken by James Reynolds My name is Christopher Carney, and I'm an aspiring Creative Digital Media student hailing from IT Blanchardstown (soon to be one of three campuses as part of the Technological University of Dublin). I have interests in everything digital media from graphic design to filmography and everything in between. I'm a 'jack of all trades, master of none' who is constantly looking to challenge and better themselves, yearning to learn and gain experience in anything I can try my hand at. Education After I completed my leaving certificate in 2015 I went on to study in Dunboyne College of Further Education for two years. In my first year I studied Sound Engineering & Music Production at FETAC Level 5 in 2015. This was a fun and active year long course in which I expanded on my previous knowledge of music production, and learned a lot about sound engineering. We organised a gig that year as part of our course in whi
Hi Chris! Just watched your group's GDD! I like how you have organised the group into different teams, I think this is an efficient way of developing the game. In your GDD, a team hierachy is highlighted which I think is good idea because there will be effective communication between all members of the group throughout the game development process. I like how everyone in your group has an assigned role. This will keep each member engaged and focused. Will there be a main character in the game or will the main character be the player? Will the player be able to get involved in the rising or just learn about? I think your GDD is full of great material that will aid you and your group in your game development and I wish you the best with it all!
ReplyDeleteHeyo Christopher, I really love the idea of a game based on The Rising there's so much sources of inspiration there especially if you take some from the movie it might help you with some visuals! This is a really good game design document it looks like it took a good while to complete. I was apprehensive about the idea of so many people being in one group but it's good that everyone has an individual role now and that you have things like an art department and research. You definitely seem to know where you're going with this game and how you're going to do it which is great! Really excited to see how this game turns out, best of luck!
ReplyDeleteHey Chris,
ReplyDeleteJust went through your GDD, To do a game based on the rising is a great idea, there's plenty of information about it. Opportunities everywhere for content! You could even just go to these significant areas from the rising, and take pictures of them which you could render into backgrounds etc. This way it'll be first hand original things! Even videos of the surrounding area and comparing them to the version in your game would be good! Because this is an event that happened in Ireland theres so much information everywhere, it's a shame that the anniversary was only 3 years ago, it would have been great to go on tours and have this game idea in the development from then because it would have definitely caught more attention . Looking forward to further updates because of the large scale! Hope it goes well ,expecting nothing less from you !
