Creativity 

When we were given the topics for the first mission I instantly knew what topic I wanted to  cover.I wanted to make a game, I felt it was a good move as have worked on sprite animations before when me and a friend teamed up to make a tank flash game when I was only 14. I am no pro thought I am very much an amuture I don’t claim to know it all in that section of the creation.  I pondered about what else I could add to the croup I was soon to join, I played a many a game and what can move a bad game to a good game or good to great is level design. I also have some… experience with this as I created the lay out for the maps that I explained before, knowing that the game would have to something like a simple plat-former as it was clear I wasn’t going to have the time and not knowing what group I was going to join I thought best to keep it simple.

I also looked in to the other topics as I was worried that I might now be able to create a group that would all like to do the gaming topic or even make a game at all. 
I started to look at gifs I love to animate and intend to buy a drawing pad once I can build up the funds so this was defiantly an option. I knew  I was capable in terms of creating a gif, I could have used photoshop to animate one Fram by frame I had learned to do so during my time in Dunboyne community college.

I could use the alternative methods using video compressors to change a mp4 file into a gif.
I used this app shaun asked us to use called slack. Its a texting sever this mutable chats that are used to different information. I went to the General chat to ask was anyone interested in doing a game for the mission.
I then started talking to Arron and Eoghan as they had similar ideas. 
They agreed that we would have to would have to do a 2D plat-former if any game.

Over all it was a very productive first day and it planted the seed for the mission setting the topic in stone and launching us into “MISSION” ahead.

Game Elements

  Game Elements Readings   The first reading was about the qualities of games  and  elements of games. main points  I'd  like to take out of this reading is  First  off,  Shawn's lovely backtracking.  😊   “ Okay, so I may have contradicted myself: I insisted that a critical vocabulary was important, and then I went on to say that completely defining the word “game” is impossible. Let’s reconcile this apparent paradox.”     Going  in and talking about the elements of the game is how you define a game genre. it's style and its target  audience. I will explain  how,  browsing through games or even searching for them the creator or its fans but categorize the game into certain categories so it may get recommended or seen by other people who like similar games. For  example, you like battlefield it's a first-person shooter versus players, you might get recommended Call of Duty. A...

Unity Tutorial 10

  The game is  actually fairly  intensely good right now. there is a lot of UI elements that we need to add and that's what we're getting into today at least to begin with. So as of right now when the player misses his  target  he doesn't get a game over screen he that's to continue playing as if nothing has happened nothing is changed.   so  we're going to be looking into making UI elements and a game over screen that will restart the save from the beginning of the program.   to do this we're going to be using a button which you haven't.  Will  do this with  the  reset button underneath the game over overlay to do this we're going to use a button and a game method called restart game it looks like this....     RestartGame ()     With this button we can reload the entire scene restarting the game.     So  the first thing you want to do when you get into unity is create a game over text mesh an...

 Unity Tutorial 08     In today's unity task we need to make the enemy sumo balls fight back and infinitely spawn.  After defeating one enemy you will then fight two, after you defeat  two  you'll fight three, and after you've defeated three  enemies   you'll  fight  four  so on and so forth...   We do this by using  for  loops and not just constantly using the same method.   This is done by setting conditions and setting it up so when this condition isn't true the method will stop. if that makes sense. We do this by changing properties of I and setting eyes to be equal to other properties entire to explain and I don't fully understand it myself as I haven't  looked into  it in  detail  I just followed the tu to rial.  This will only spawn three enemies off the bottom we still have to set it up so it will continuously spawn increasing numbers of enemies starting at one.     So ...
