Week 17(05)

 Reading 05

I just finished doing reading 05 and I won't lie at first I had no clue to what was going on or how I had to do it, I was just watching the video and it didn't make no sense at first but I watched the video a couple more times and then it started to make more sense with the coding documents and coming up and making themes from the codes we have came up with from are Bibliographies that we have made in the past couple of weeks.

The topic that I was picked was video game addiction and how people get addicted to playing video games and why it's increasing more rapidly and it's one day going to become a more global issue as the years come up because even though video game addiction is still pretty small in the western countries unlike the Asian countries like china and Korea it will most likely increase over the years and thanks to the pandemic it's going to increase that's why I picked this topic.


This is some of the code that I picked it's very simple and as you can see the red outlines is what they relate to with the codes for example the no responsibilities code is basically how Charlie said when he was younger his parents would always tell him to stop being on the game so much but he would always have his homework done so he could combat what they would say about him playing his game to much, but when he went to college there was no parent to tell him that he was on the game to much so eventually he just stopped going to classes and just dropped out of college and went back home to live with his parents 



These are the five themes that I picked I believe that they are pretty good and cover almost if all the topics that would cover everything that is going on about video game addiction.

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. 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 tee...

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...
