 This week I have completed another two Unity tutorials in one of the tutorial I have applied sprite animation to my enemies and in the other one I have added projectiles to the world also.This week I haven't really faced any difficulties and achieved what I wanted from the tutorial.My game starts to look really alive and I am looking forward to complete the game in order to improve my gaming skills and working with 2D games.This week we also had a Game Jam in which awe had to create a game based on certain topic in this case it was languages I found the process of creating a game very interesting and I've learned a lot of new things about Unity for myself great experience.                                                                             Link

 Reading Week 5 This week I have went over all the bibliography that I have completed and underline the most important key point in them that I can possibly write about based on my topic which is Level Design Process. Key Points:Design methods,Level process and experience,Level Architecture,Level and players physical ability's ,Bad level design can ruin a good game,Level analysis of model proposal,Holistic approach to level design. This are some key points that I have taken from my reading and they are some possible ideas that I can explore and talk about in more details.Topics that I am the most interested in are Level Architecture,Bad level design can ruin a good game and Level and players abilities this are the topics that I will be looking at the most.The level architecture is a very interesting topic and it covers a lot about level design and what is involved in it and how architecture effects the game in general.I am looking forward to explore Level design process even more a

Image Link  This week I have completed the rest of the academic readings.The biggest difficulty I have faced was to understand what exactly the reading is talking about and how to write an overview of what you have read.The second thing was that I got stuck and I couldn't find any more relative papers based on my topic which is Level design process in games but then I used research-gate which I found really helpful and it really helped me with completion of the readings that I had left to do.Overall I am happy with what I have written I think that I have collected a lot of relevant information based on my topic and a learned a lot about level design and things that are involved in the process of creating a game.   Readings! “Bad Level design can ruin a good game”. Which means that game level design is as strong as a game design. Which shows us that level design and game design are pretty much equal in terms of development of the game. Even though they are not identical, but they wo

Hi Everyone! I just completed another set of Unity Tutorial so far everything is working really well and working on Ruby Adventures game is  actually really interesting.When I started the very first tutorial I dint like the instruction and how everything was going in the Unity but as I kept doing tutorials I started to really enjoy process of creating the game.I have created the world I have added ground tress decorated everything.And the game starts to look more alive.Actually when was going trough the instructions I faced few difficulties in terms of misunderstanding instructions but I have found an alternative which is the tutorials for this game on YouTube which I think are very helpful.Overall the game is going great and I am looking forward to continue working on the game and have it completed in the next few weeks.

Today I have finished my reading task for week 3.Before I started looking for articles and writing about them.As I was recommended I decided to change my topic from Genre-Game Adventures to Level Design Process because I couldn't  find enough of relevant information and articles to fill all the work provided for this task.Overall I am happy with my choice and I think I did a good job learning and finding interesting and relevant information for my current topic which is Level design process.On this task I spent around 4 to 5 hours because I wasn't sure how to start and how to write my overview in a relevant academic form but once I finished 2 academic papers it was kinda a bit more easier to work on the two that I hd left to do.I it was a lot easier to find relevant information while going trough the papers I guess everything just comes with experience and also the time that has been spent on it.

 The topic I have picked for my reading task is Adventure games and what they are!I though that this would be an interesting topic to explore and talk about in more details.I found few interesting websites that are talking about Game Adventures and really we'll explain what they are.Today I learned more about ITB Library and how to use it for my own benefit were ill be able to find books and different varieties of assays based on one or more topics.I thinks this will be very helpful in terms of finding academical papers.Another think the was shown to us during the lecture by one of the library staff which was RefWorks.Its a place were we can save and reference our work in order to come back and look over the stuff that we have been looking at before.My search strategy for the proposed book is too use library, also Ref Work were ill be saving the material that I have found and the ones ill be using in creation of my book based on the Adventure games.I am looking forward to explore a

 This week I started Unity 2D Tutorials for the first tutorial I have updated my Unity to 2018.3 in order to be able to download the project that I will be working on and improving my skills in making 2D games.The projects seems to very interesting and I am looking forward to continue working on the tutorials in order to complete the game.The only thing that I found hard compared to the tutorials last semester is that there is no video step by step instructions which I think might be difficult in some way for example when I was getting stuck or something wasn't working it was a lot easier to look trough the video and find the mistakes.But from what I learned and achieved last semester I think I will be well able to follow the tutorial instruction  and work on the game.
