Game and Play Design

Final screen designs for Murder Burger

Final Screen Design for Mobile

Last week we were working on our Project report, we didn’t have time to meet up and discuss so we just worked in it on our own. There are a lot of things that we need to fix. We need to shorten our text and make it more clear. We also need to talk more about the project and results instead of what we did. 

This week I have been busy so I have not been able to do what I’ve planned, I did manage to redraw the decals for our game though to make it look more painty and have more variety. From our last play testing at the Auckland Games Development Meetup, we had some suggestions that we should have more variety of paints, because it looks to repetitive and boring. 

I plan on fixing the bugs on our prototype and get some play testing done.

We happy with the footage I got from this play testing. It might come in handy for the Making of Video. 

My plans for this week is to finish working on the painting mechanic. This week Garet and I are planning on merging what we have been working on together to start play testing.

When my tutor found out what I have been doing, he suggested that I should start from scratch. Then he found out that I didn’t have much knowledge on Unity, and gave me some good help and advice. 

My plan for this week is to continue working on making a prototype. I am struggling on this, but hopefully I can find some help on Slack, online or friends.

I was pretty happy with what I have made this week. I made something that I was not expecting and found it to be fun. I did not believe it had anything to do with my project, so I never planned to show it. However when I showed my tutor this little mini game I made, he got a bit upset and asked me why he has never seen it until now. Even though it doesn’t follow the path that I planned, the mini game I made shows my progress and experiment. 

This week I plan to figure out how to make a prototype for Colvered.

Next week I need to figure out on what the aesthetics I want for my game is, and how to put it into words. 

My plan for next week is to work on the presentations slides.

This week I am planning on finishing our Project Report, and continue working on the Making of Video and our artefact. 

Last week I worked on our project report, and continued collecting data for the Making of Video. I am also working on getting the prototype ready for the Mesh Event. 

This week I planned to work on finishing my report, and if I have time, I wish to continue the plans I made last week. Which was creating a health system and hit indicator. 

The decals I previously made for the game was just a dummy. I have decided to redraw these paint decals and make more varieties due to what some play testers have said. Now I need to code so that the raycast will shoot out these different decals.
