  This week I continued working on my game, I added a script that removes the old tiles behind my player to save space, I also made the different tiles spawn randomly in front of my player as he runs forward as I prepared a few different bridges in the prefabs folder. Once I did that I moved on to building the score system with the score showing up at the top left of the screen, as the player moves forward and gets further in the game the difficulty of the game increases. Next week I will focus on adding a death condition when my player collides with an obstacle, Once the player dies he will stop moving and also the score will stop and will be documented. I will also work on building a death menu with a small animation and the option to play again or return to the main menu. This week I didn't have much difficulty while developing the game.

Review Week: Comments and Feedback

  Feedback in: From the comments I have received in my blog so far, I have gotten some positive feedback and good advice from the students which I find to be very helpful. I try to review the comments on my blog and see what advice from the blog comments I can implement in my work. The comments I find the most useful are the ones that give me good new ideas of what I can add to my existing game or how I can improve it all together, I'm very grateful for all the feedback I have gotten over this semester and It definitely is very helpful and encourages me to try and do better when building my game. The comments are also useful if you are interested in learning more about your classmates and it has made me realize that I have many things in common with some of my classmates. So far I enjoy the comments section of the module as its a different way of working with your classmates and not the same as group work. Feedback out: Looking back at all the comments I have left on other blogs I ...

Week 9: Reading And Writing

Looking back at all the work I have done so far for this module, I thought the reading tasks would be much harder when I first found out about them, but each week as I read all the papers I found them to be quite informative and writing a blog about each reading task became easier as time passed. At first, the biggest difficulty I had was figuring out how to summarize each reading and what information would be most important to include in my blog, but with time I found that easier to do.  The writing assignments are not too bad for me but I find that sometimes it can be hard to write a blog after doing each task as some take me a few hours and once I'm done with the task I find myself to be tired and dreading to have to write a blog after, I have disciplined myself to write a blog each time. My favourite reading so far has been about the growth mindset as its something that I think is useful to learn, especially students. It was a good way to start the module by trying to implement...
