Week 4-Feedback

 Feedback Strategies

After reading the two articles I have chosen to read which were "Try feedforward Instead of Feedback" and "Be a mirror", after reading these two i'll explain how my knowledge on feedback has gotten much bigger than before.

I already knew feedback was a very important thing but I didn't really think on how much different types of ways you can use feedback for example downward feedback which is one of the traditionally methods of information using feedback where the leaders would give downward feedback to their employees, and it's also the same way for employees can give feedback to their leaders which is called upward feedback.

But what I really liked about this article was how it said a big problem with all these types of feedback is that it focuses on the past and on what has already happened not on the infinite opportunities that can happen in the future, I liked this part of the article because I agree with this statement a lot because in my opinion what's the point of always talking about what you did wrong instead you should be focusing on future.

The second article I read "Be a mirror" talks about growth mindset and it talks about how some of these students progress much faster than others is because of their mindset, I think it's a good thing to have because all their skills like reading, problem solving can always improve and always get better to help them through the learning process, so basically a growth mindset you really believe in yourself and have very little self doubt, unlike a person with a fixed mindset believes that what ever abilities they have like reading or whatever even if it's good or bad is just gonna stay the way it is and their is absolutely no way for their skills to improve.

In my opinion feedback is a very good thing but it also depends on the person for example when I get feedback and their is a couple of bad feedback, I'm the type of person wouldn't be depressed about the negatives instead id be looking at it for what it is and now I can improve on it and look at the stuff I did right and improve on it, but a different person could have a completely different response.

  “Is video game addiction real?” Why was it made? The aim of this particular study is to look at the longer terms and impact when it comes to people that have a particular relationship with video games and how playing video games for a period of time can do to a person over time   , in this article it was based off of a six year study, the longest study ever done on video game addiction, and It’s very rare    it’s also found that 90% of gamers do not play in a way that is harmful or causes negative long term consequences and it’s actually a significant minority , though it’s still very bad because of how people can get truly addicted to video games and as a result can suffer mentally, socially and behaviorally. Start of his journey  In the first story of this article it was about a guy named Charlie Bracke and he was just a normal guy that was playing video games since he was young at the age of 5   , he was playing old 2D games and many others, In his teenage years he become more obs

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

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 coin collect
