Week 8 Comments and Feedback

Here is about blog about comments and feedback, I will be talking about what I think about the blog commenting and project feedback assignments.

The comments and feedback that I got from other students from this course, it was really good and helpful. Most of the comments was giving me tips on what I can do to improve on my game and it was something I didn't think about or I forgot about the features they mentioned to me in the comments. Since I was given them tips I kept in mind to use them for the game and wrote it down on where I leave all my notes for all the different modules so I know I would and can go back on it if I every feel like I am forgetting to add something.

The comments and feedback I am giving to other students from this course, I like to think they are helping and doesn't sound too mean. I hope I gave them some tips like the other students did to me for the game project. What I found would be a good feedback strategies is that if we are going to say something negative or they might think it was a negative feedback I would balance it out with a positive comment as well.

At the end of the feedback and comment, we should also mention about the hard work they have done. Show and tell them that we can see that they work hard on their blog post and game project. When I was reading the other student's project blog, it gave me some ideas that I can use for my game, keep in mind with the features and elements they are using for their game and see if they are useful and needed for my game.

Most of them aren't needed for my game but most of them can be useful. I can't remember which blog I read but it was talking about the audio used in their game, I forgot about that feature I said I will use for my game and I saw where and how they picked the audio for the game. When I saw that I wrote it down on my notebook so I can look back it.

I also saw the different writing style from reading other student's blog, I saw how they wrote for their blog and how some interact with their audience so I kept that in mind that I write up my blog.

When reading other student's blog I felt I understand them more when I barely knew anything about them, at times I feel like I was being a stalker and a creep then I realised this is a blog and they wanted to share this to whoever is reading. Even with that thought, I still felt weird when reading their introduction page but reading their project page I can see where they are going with their game and want to see how the game would turn out in the end.

I am okay with how my introduction post but I also felt that I shared too much information of my life outside of college, I'm usually not like that with people I don't know so I felt awkward but it was also who I am. I am usually an awkward person but as you get to know me I am still awkward but more weird than you thought.

Multimedia Project Presentation

Today we presented our game 'Tiny Farm' to our year and we got the chance to look at all the other game that was made for this module. The first game I saw was Rob's game 'Monster Flip'. His game was a puzzle game, it has three different levels. when you click on one of the puzzle pieces it will rotate. You have to click the piece until it is in the right position. After you finished the level you can go back to the menu page and click on the next level. I like that the game is for kids who have autism. I enjoy playing this game because it was simple and easy to play. The next game I saw was Darragh's game 'Alien Twine Game'. His game was a story adventure game. It tells a story and you get to choose which option you would like to pick. Each option will bring you to a certain route, it depends on what and which option you pick. I enjoy playing this game because it was fun and interesting to see where you will end up at the end of the story. Battle ...

Multimedia Project Research

This semester I will be in a small group project. As in for right now we only have 7 people in our group project. In my group there is Emma Byrne, Robyn Mulhall, Nicole Goodman, Marcin Grabicki, Esmee MacPherson and Eva Garrett We want a game for the junior infant to 1st class (4-6 years old children), it's disgusted as a game but it's interactive learning. We were thinking of making it in like an app where the children can play when they are on the tablet or phone because nowadays there's are kids with iPhone and iPad etc. so if they are on these devices watching youtube or playing games on it. They can play this learning game instead of going on youtube. It will be similar to Duolingo and Study Stack but it will be easy, simple and fun for the kids. The game is about learning different subjects, such as English, Maths, Irish etc. I was thinking of having 2 people on designing the menu page, 2 people on designing all the background for the different subjects we are g...

Game GDD

The articles I read was  Design Considerations  by Greg Aleknevicus,  Prototying  and  Generating Ideas . The articles talks about what a publishers can do to improve a game that does involve spending money on that maybe be worth it. The articles basically tells us that it is important to show the designers where the game is heading. They are a rough example of what the designer is planning on doing with their game to look like and it's about getting the main idea of the game across. Prototypes are used to test something out, so in this case the prototype is to test out the gameplay. Testing the game will give the designer ideas on what needs to be added or take away from the game. When designing games we must come up with the idea. It can be a basic concept idea and not fully formed.  Designing a game, we need to know what rules or system, materials , narrative and market research and ask yourself these questions What game rules led to when test...
