Journaling is such a wonderful creative expression.

Take it from me, I've kept a journal all throughout middle school and high school.

Write about your day, friends, family, (family secrets), deep thoughts, shower thoughts, ideas, dreams, actual dreams (especially the weird ones), goals, plans, your Minecraft world, the clouds today, to do lists, playlists, any type of lists, the meaning of life, paste in receipts, pictures, magazine cutouts, aesthetic clothing tags, draw, doodle, sketch, add anything and everything that describes you and your life at this moment and who you want to be in the future. Capture moments, memories, and fragments of your self. Fill the book till its bulky and bursting, carry it with you and keep it forever.

This is just writeing to myself

I have done a full preparation. Now, time to start!

According to the previous timeline I have made, I decide to choose the game scene first. Based on the game background, It should include something fantasy and also like a fantasy environment. I find a Chinese 3d website “Love to the net “ and discover there are a lot of fantasy game environment free to be downloaded there. 

I chose a scene which is a simple fantasy game environment with some shining lights and dark forests. Well, for the fantasy criteria, it’s totally fantasy and for the federation square game set background, I can simply just change the material of it. Sounds quite easy. Then, several problems just come. The whole scene took me around ten minutes to download. When I imported into unity, the environment is so large that I have to zoom in and see some of the scenes. This scene is not easy for the characters to move around.

I chose some another scenes, same problem. At this state, I feel myself should abandon something I want and choose the most important to focus on, I want the scene to be fantasy enough, I want the scene to be high quality, I want the scene to be more likely to set in a city, more real. But in order to make a quick and good start of my project, I cannot demand too much things. Game development is more important. 

At the same time, I emailed my digital media teacher and he told me I should pay attention to the game sustainability several times. So, I think game sustainability and social sustainability of the project is more important. My teacher has been reminded me to keep poly count as low as possible several times, I should not care too much. 

So, finally, I just choose a simple old prison scene with some small rooms and downloaded it. The scene seems small, only took me no more than 30 seconds. I successfully imported into unity.
