Tutorial 06

 

Unity screenshot 


This week's tutorial was a bit tricky as they happen to be a lot of errors in the instructions. I was able to fix some of the errors after doing some google research and reading. This turned out to be very time-consuming and unfortunately without them fixed Unity didn't allow me to proceed with further steps as they required play mode to be working. A very big issue that I came across and that caused me a lot of time and trouble was the incorrect use of the capital letter in the names for the scripts. This cause a lot of trouble as nothing would work then and I have re-read the instructions many times and made sure it was exactly the same but it was what cause me the problem. The second part also had that mistake with the script but thankfully I noticed it earlier and got it fixed much quicker which meant I didn't get stuck for a long time again. The second part went also a bit faster and I found the canvas with the text input very handy and useful to learn, think this can be beneficial for future work with Unity. Overall I like how the steps are writing down as it is easier to go back and faster to follow but at the same time there are spelling errors and despite using the same version of Unity some bits have been moved, think the steps would be better if they provided more screenshots.

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
