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.

The second game mechanic would be that I'm going to have  the player to collect coins they would be scattered around the map like in Mario or in Sonic.

The third game mechanic would be that the player would be able to attack enemy's via by sword or maybe using a gun like in mega man I don't know for sure yet but I would like a mechanic were the player is able to fight off enemy's.

    Hi David, your game idea sounds interesting and different. I would like to see how this turns out in the end, I used to play a lot of these type of games when I was younger too and even thinking of them brings back some good memories. Best of luck with the rest of the semester and creating your game.

Week 9-project

  Week 9 Alpha  My project for this week has been going pretty well I was able to catch up to the point I was at, before I deleted my other file my accident, I was having a bit of problems because my unity was just being very glitchy and it crashed multi of times but I was able to get the work done, which I'm happy about. Here are some screenshot of what I was doing the this week, I made my own level using the tile and grids at first it was very annoying to do because I kept on forgetting to add the grid so the tiles could be on the screen but after a while I got it and then I had to slice all the pixels to 16 by 16 to make it fit the grid I also had to do the same for the sprite character. And there is also a bit of code I just started in I'm able to make the player move left and right and the player can jump

  “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.

Week 7-Reading

 Games decisions I have  spent at least 30 minutes browsing each of the articles which are "Building a Princess saving app", "Flow experience in computer game playing among thai university students and the video "What is Flow Theory in game design". My perspective on game decisions has also changed, when I was reading the Building a princess article the  learning curve and what can a game teach the player, when I saw the graph for the learning curve for traditional apps I didn't realise that you really don't gain any other useful skills from your time your using the traditional app, I also liked the part where the person writing this was comparing it with photoshop and how it said it took him 3 years to learn photoshop because of how complicated it is, but I find photoshop very easy to use and only took me like 2 weeks to understand most of it., but unlike a traditional app, the skills you learn in a game for example the original super Mario you learn a...
