Week 8 Progress

For this post, it will be about my review on my class progress in general.

For this week, I felt that there is too much work to do in such a short time. I know I can get through it but I also know I am going to be tired and need that Christmas break that is coming up. I am okay with the progress I am doing for all the modules, I also have a weekly routine.

Some modules routine is different but for this module I usually do work every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and whatever is left over the weekend. For group project, I do all my work during the class. For website design, I do work during lab time or on Wednesday. The rest of the module I just work on them when I have the time or the weekend.

Out of all the class assignments, I enjoy the website one because I know what I am doing and it is not too much work because I can do it during lab time. Other than that, I don't think I like any other assignment that was given because it was given to us in since a short notice.

The extra credits for this module, I try to do one at least one every week and if I have the time to do another I would but as in for right now it doesn't look like I can do two a week.

What I would like to change for this second half of the semester and next semester is that there isn't too much or at least give us a few months notice on what we have to do and let us know when is the due date so we can organised and plan what to do for this and that week.

If not now when?;

INTRODUCTION

ABOUT ME My name is Nhu Thai. I am really shy but after you know me you will probably regret knowing me. I love meme, I mean who doesn't? I am the oldest and I have 2 annoying brothers and one told me to write that he's a good singer...he thinks he's Beyonce... The best module I took from last year was probably web development because I like doing the coding but I also hate it at the same time. I understood it because I took down notes and ask the lecturer and classmates for help. When I saw that web development was one of my highest grade I was shocked and happy.  Career wise... I don’t really know exactly what I want to do. I would like to go and do something that involves media but I still don’t know if I want it for the long term yet. If I am doing it for the long term, I would like to go to graphic design or photography or website design.  Over the summer, I went to Disneyland Paris again. I only went because my little cousins wanted to go and I thought i...

Game Vision Statement

Zoobe is what the name for the puzzle and adventure game I want to design.  It is a game where you are an animal, in a shape of a box and trying to escape from the zoo without getting caught but the humans or traps. The background story for this game is that one night the animal decided that they want to get away and out of the zoo and be free. Some nights after, one of the animal's gate was left unlock and left their "home" behind them. Since all the animals wanted to be free and actually go back to the jungle. The animal that escape went to get the key for the gate, with the help of other animals trying to get the zoo keeper drop the key to all the gates. To play this game, you are the animal who's gate was left unlock and have to get the key to open the other gates for the animal. The animal can't move by itself so you have to move them yourself without getting caught by the zookeeper or traps. To free the animal you either have to move them to the box that...

Game Design

After reading about what is a game and what we should look in when making a game, I found three different website based on the same ideas but different information. 5 Game Elements That Create Effective Learning Games  by Arunima Majumdar Game Design, An Introduction  by Jill Duffy What are game-elements? (PacMan as reference)  by Ellis The first article I read gave me some game mechanics that I should considered when making a game for our assignment. Arunima talks about: Conflict ; have some sort of challenges for the player to overcome. It could be a physical obstacle, combat with another player or a puzzle that has to be solved. A sense of collaborative learning can be built in with a challenge that all the player must work together to overcome. Strategy and chance; with strategy-based games they put a lot of control into the players' decisions they can make that affect game okay or their odds of achieving the goal. Also, it based on the chance the play...
