Unity Tutorial 02

Unity Tutorial part 2

I just have completed the second tutorial of Unity and I'm slowly starting to get more comfortable with the program and the instructions start to make more sense. Although I am following the video tutorials well, I don't feel comfortable enough to go ahead and work with Unity on my own. I am a bit nervous because despite the fact that I like Unity I lack a little bit of belief in myself to work on my own game without the Unity tutorials.

The second part of the game that we are currently creating in Unity was easy and fast enough to do. I enjoy to see the progress we make with every little video and like how it is all coming together. I find the explanation in the videos very helpful as they help you to understand the purpose of a certain code etc. The videos are up to scratch and facile to follow, with just a few short little videos I was able to make the vehicle rotate correctly and control the speed.

I felt like the plane challenge is a bit too early for us to handle at first but with the help of the hints it turned out not to be too bad. I didn't think I could do it at first but it was possible. I ran into a few problems first as the files didn't work for me twice and had to create a completely new separate project for the challenge video. Then Unity crashed on me and almost lost all of my work. I had to restart the plane challenge again even though I have saved it. It was a frustrating night but I managed to get it all fixed the next day and was tired of having to do it again for the third time but at least I got more practice and feel more comfortable with this exercise now.

Introduction to a Future Designer

 Introduction Hi pink figure Hi pink figure Hi so it has been a while since I first started the  Creative Digital Media course in College. This course has taught me so much and there is so much more to learn. It is a very creative and fun course. Year 1 was interesting and became very challenging when Covid entered. There was a lot of late night works and was filled with assignments but I did it and now I am in second year.  I'm looking forward to this module because I like games and always was interesting in some game designs but never decided to take on this task on my own with any help. I feel that this module will answer my question about game design and career in multimedia.   There were some really good tasks that I enjoyed and did very well in like photography which changes your point of view on everyday objects and for me it woke up my eye for photography. Image manipulation was a very fun and entertaining task as it allowed you to create something out of this world and it

Game Design

 Reading about Games Type of a game Image source After doing the reading, I realised that there is a lot more to games than just a good idea, plan and software tools. I think that the question in the first reading "what is a game" is an extremely hard question to answer because it can mean something different for everyone. The truth is that most things in our life that we interact with a lot will have a different meaning to an individual. For someone a game might be nothing more than just a little fun way to complete a level or task and move on to the next one. Gamers see it as being part of their life, their break from reality, a brain exercise etc. There are some people that don't find a big interest in games and will have an even more different opinion on "what is a game?" I myself like gaming, I do it often if I have the time however thankfully I never get obsessed which means I can play whenever I have time and still be have my chores done. In my case I wou

Game Vision Statement

My Game Vision A quick sketch of my game idea After some brainstorming and researching, I have decided on my game idea and now can start to look into it more in depth. Although my idea is based on the games below and it will have the same controls and very alike gameplay, it won't be the same game as "Coin Rush" for example because I will be making my own version of the game. My main goal is to make the game more fun and interactive for the players, I want to add some adrenaline and rush to my own version of the game to make it more entertaining but not frustrating.  In my version the player will be a ball of ice and will have to complete the laid out course on a platform before the ball melts in order to complete the game. The player will have to balance the ball and hit certain objects to get through to the finish line, however the game will be over once the player drops the ball, hits an object that will make it crash or if the ball melts before reaching the finish lin
