My Favourite Game!

-

 Growing up I enjoyed a few games but my favourite game was always The Sims! I discovered this game at about 8 years old in 2009. I was over in my friend from schools house and she introduced me to the game. After we spent the whole day playing The Sims 2 in her house I begged my mom to buy me a copy of the game. After some hard convincing my mom agreed to buy me it and down to game stop we went. I remember being so happy when I finally got home and set up The Sims on my PC that shortly afterwards anytime I got any money or for birthday and Christmas presents all i would ask for would be expansion packs for the game.

The Sims is a virtual stimulation game where you can create characters and family's then control the characters to create and enhance their lives. You are also able to build and design their houses and other amenities in the town. You can build up the characters skills throughout the game to help with career paths and education. Ultimately there is no end goal for the game and is whatever you want to make it.

I grew up playing the sims and by the end had a huge collection of all the games and their different expansion packs. I think my favourite version of the game was The Sims 3 mainly because I had the most expansion packs for that version. Every time I go back to play or see something about The Sims it gives me a very nostalgic feeling!

  This is me! Hello and welcome to my introduction post, to begin my name is Mary McGee, I am 20 years old and I am from Carpenterstown, Dublin. I am a Cancer sun, Sagittarius moon, Leo rising and yes I love astrology!  I would say I have a lot of hobbies but something that I have always been super fascinated by is travel. Thanks to covid... I haven't done as much travelling as I would have liked to but some of the places I've been to and loved are Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Rome, Florence, Milan, Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Lisbon, Munich, Brussels, Greece, Egypt, The US and so on... with my favourite being Florence. I find travelling is an amazing way to learn and experience different cultures and places whilst also meeting new people and having fun! I hope to get to do a lot more travelling done now as covid is coming to an end, with South East Asia being on the top of my list! Me in Paris I spent this summer living in Valencia, Spain (mostly as a ...

Game Idea Research

  Traffic Light This week for the project research we were asked to choose our favourite idea from the brainstorm last week and continue researching that idea to further see if it would be a game we would enjoy making. From my brainstorming last week the idea I think I would enjoy the most and also be the most capable of making is the traffic light game. After re-reading my brainstorm post and considering all ideas I think this was the most structured and planned idea and would work well for this project.  Since my last post I've further researched this idea and thought of more ideas for it. One of my ideas is to have it single player game with a start and finish line. The game will begin and there will be a timer counting down, a player at the start line and a traffic light at the finish line. The player is only allowed to move forward when the light is green. If the player moves when the light is red they will either be sent back to the start line or eliminated. The game wil...

Designing a game This week for the project task we had to make a Game Design Document, I used Dundoc   to create mine. This website had an amazing layout to use which made making the document a lot easier to fill out. I feel I have a lot more insight going in to making my game now. Here is a link to my Game Design Document on Dundoc!  https://www.dundoc.com/project/7854
