Week 13

CT-4005 – Week 13 Progress Report

After a couple of weeks of online lectures we have continued to progress to the completion of our project. We have began the creation of our levels due to the completion of tile assets by Blake. We also received a few assets for pickups by Andrew, which Blake then had to make compatible with our agreed upon art style.

I (Iain) then made an example our level and passed the creation of the levels to Andrew so that I was able to focus on implementing our demo into the full project. At this time Oli was creating the Main menu, utilising the assets created by Black to do so.

Week 11

CT-4005 – Week 11 Progress Report

This is the first week of full Online Lectures, this means that we are all working on the Assignment from home and communicating over Discord.

At the current moment the only blocks we have stopping us working on the assignment, is that in the full game we are creating Iain and I (Oli) are waiting on one of our designers to complete the tile sets we will be using to create the levels. But this isn’t too bad as both Iain and I have been working on the Demo Version. We had been waiting for sprites from Andrew for specific drops / pickups (power-ups).

The current planned activities by next week will be Andrew will still be working on Assets for us to use, Blake will be working on buttons for the menu and the Tile set.

Iain will be refining the Systems used within the Demo game we created and I will be working on the Menu / Character Selection / Settings screens.

This week we all sat together and created our idea of a 2D shooter for our party game, we have constructed some ideas for this game, and have deconstructed the mechanics within the game so that rapid prototyping can commence.

After learning about different workflow types within lecture, we are all set that we will be using a Scrum workflow to create our game and implement improvements in the design and end product.
