Unity Tutorial 06

 Lesson 3.4

During this tutorial we learned all about sound effects and particles. We incorporated sound effects when the player jumped and when the player collided with the fence. We also put in music to make the game more of a fun experience for the player. I can't wait to play around with particles and sounds when it comes to my own game, I have a feeling I will spend a long time getting this perfect as it's easy. I really like the variety of different things that they give us in the game. The different characters, the sound effects, I kind of play around with the same ones but I have looked at other blogs and found that they dabbled in different objects and characters. 



look at that balloon go!


Challenge 3

I'm finding these challenges difficult to understand. I just feel overwhelmed when having something in front of me that I don't quite understand. I was able to move the background by looking back on the previous code. I was also able to move the balloon at spawn instead of it being stuck in the same position. I also had to move the particles inside the balloon which was pretty easy. In spawn manager there was a mistake which I automatically solved, instead of "spawnobjects" it said "prawnobjects" which was not correct so I managed to get the money symbols and the bombs spawning! This took me a solid hour and a half to solve and I had to look through youtube videos and I found one which helped me figure out what I needed to do. The person solving the tutorial was just talking through it, he wasn't really typing in code which I found was better as it gave me the opportunity to solve it myself!

An Introduction to Frodo (and me)

 Hi! My name is Anna Zurawska and I am a second year Creative Digital Media student.  My first ever year of college was a once in a lifetime experience and I'm so happy that I chose this course, it opened my eyes and it made me use parts of my brain that I didn't know were possible to reach. I never thought I would be able to find softwares such as Photoshop and Illustrator straightforward. I'm so happy how my assignments and projects turned out and I can't wait for what second year has to offer. I don't really want to talk about the pandemic because I know a lot of people are sick of hearing about it so I'm just going to show everyone my cat that I got over the break 😁😁. Frodo sleeping anywhere and evrywhere The first picture is a recent one I took, look how big he is compared to the second one !! Frodo in the first pic looking at my cockatiel like she's a big juicy steak His name is Frodo and he sleeps 22 hours a day. Whenever my boyfriend comes home fro

The components of Game Design

What is a Game, Anyway? The following consists of key excerpts taken from an article by Ian Schreiber. It aims to discuss one's definition of a what a game is.  Schreiber (2009) discusses that many games have similar contrasting ideas. For instance, dots and boxes present the user with a simplistic objective of whoever attains the most boxes wins the game. The same mechanics apply to Tic-tac-toe. Therefore, it is important to clarify the differences between games. A substantial amount of individuals have clashing definitions in terms of what a game is, but all have equal elements. The components of an enticing experience can incorporate conflict, a set of rules, a problem solving task as well as an out of body experience yet all require interaction. A game does not essentially call for technology for the experience to be stimulating, there can be colossal subsets to a game. A game may be as straightforward as "tossing a ball around", as Schreiber (2009) states "play

Game Design Document

Image
 I created my first ever Game Design Document, I felt like the reading task this week helped me a lot on my journey. Dundoc has some extremely useful game design document templates that are nicely organised into different titles such as technical, sounds, game introduction etc. I looked at other students game design documents whenever I was stuck on specific things and I found it 100 times easier. The template looks daunting at first but I promise it's not as bad as it looks! Here is the link to my Game Design Document Here is a picture of my game design document (might have the chance the name to my game title) I will make several changes throughout the semester so I can fill out as much information as possible. Right now I haven't made the game so when my vision comes alive I will include screenshots and information architecture.
