Week 3-Feedback

 Feedback thoughts



The two articles I read was a fixed mindset could be holding you back and Silence the critical voices in your head.


When I was reading these two articles it did open my eyes on how I look at feedback I liked the section in a fixed mindset in the changing how you think section, where even though you know that you have a fixed mindset it's not a bad thing it's a good thing because now your more self aware of you and your surrounding and now you can change your fixed mindset into a growth mindset, but it's not going to be easy you don't just one day get up and boom you are now in a growth mindset, theres levels to it and it's going to take time maybe weeks, months or years it depends on the person.

And if you have a fixed mindset you struggle to adapt because your so used to the thing that you are really good at doing and it's a bad thing really because now you would be scared to try and learn a new skill set, but people with a growth mindset you are more willing to try and learn new skills, you may not be good at the start but you know that already and you know it's going to take time to get decent or even good at it, but eventually you do become good at it.

Silence the critical voices in your head I could relate to that I think everyone can relate to that, you can be working hard on let's say a project you tried you best to make it as perfect as possible and when you finally present to your teacher and they just tell you what you did wrong and why it's not as good as you think it is and this is really bad because teachers will always tell you what you did wrong and not what you did right, so all the good parts you did do, you don't care about you don't even notice it because you care so much about the negative even the if it was a tiny bit of negative. After reading this article it shows me that it's ok to be sad about the negatives in your work or what ever your doing but you should be happy with what you did right and learn from the wrong and do better so you won't make the same mistakes.

Week 5-Project

  Game vision statement  Game genre: The game genre that I will be choosing from a serious of options like shooters, action adventure and role playing games I was having a hard time in thinking what type of game I wanted because when ever I get told a project and we have all the power to make it anyone I want I get and have so many different ideas in my head it gets too much sometimes and I had to realise that I was only new to game development so all the complex and cool features that I wanted for my game would be very difficult so I went for one of the simpler routes and chose to make a plat-former game. Gameplay: The gameplay for the plat-former was going to be similar to how super Mario gameplay is because one I liked super Mario so it would be fun to make a game similar to it and Mega man another plat-former just like Mario but instead of just jumping around just like in Mario, Mega man has a shooting aspect in the game, so I know that I'm definitely going to have co...

Week 4-Project

 Game Idea Research  From my brainstorm that I have done last week I have now been thinking about type of game I want to make based on all the ideas I made from the brainstorm Ideas that I came up last week and I think I want to make a 2D plat-former type of game, because I believe i'll will have a very enjoyable process when designer the game which is very important that's why it took me a while to pick which idea I wanted to do because one of my ideas was making a zombie fps game but then I realised how hard that's going to be especially with me that has very little game design knowledge. The second reason is because when I was younger I did play a handful of 2D games especially on my DS lite when that was a thing so it would be pretty cool to make a 2D plat-former game. I really want to have the plat-former aspect as one of my game mechanics for this game the movements would be kind of similar to super Mario.  https://www.youtube...

Reading week 3-Game design

 Reading week 3-Game design What is a game anyway?:  Reading this made me see that theres to just calling a "game" a game because theres a lot more stuff going into making a game, at first when I saw the article I didn't want to read it because I thought most of it would just be common sense, but then I read the Critical Vocabulary section which made me laugh because what is said was true when we describe a new game to someone, one of the ways we do it is by describing them from other games like this game is basically a downgraded Grand Theft Auto or this game is a mix of Call of duty and Rainbow six siege, and it's not an accurate answer at all because the game most likely doesn't even play like the games we would describe it's like, it's a pretty vague and not a very detailed answer, but most people that play games for a while would understand it, but then I was thinking of the point of view of someone that doesn't play games and how would they diges...
