Reading 05

-

 For this weeks reading tasks we are tasked with beginning to code our resources and also we have to follow a certain process to choose five themes. We are given text and a video to watch on the topic. I decided to briefly read through the text, but as I didn't really understand this I followed up by watching the video.

After watching the video it definitely cleared up some questions but honestly it was still very confusing to understand. Im not sure if this process is well suited in the way I like to learn and organise but I decided to give it a go anyways. It did seem to get easier as I went on. 

I have researched an annotated plenty of resources that I will be using now. Which I am happy with. Im not sure if I will use this method again but everything is a learning trial at the end of the day. 

I've been using google scholar each week to further research my topic and create a list of useful articles that I can use for my chosen topic.

  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 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 w

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 will get

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
