Multimedia Project Research

Artwork of the 1916 rising found online
as a visual reference to where it took place.

This semester, I will be joining a big group to help create a game. The group contains 12 people and one of the key members is Chris Carney.

The groups idea for the project is an open world 3-D game that's set during the 1916 Easter rising, the player characters is someone who has to deliver messages to and from key locations of the Rising and between key members of it too. So obviously this project will have a more historical slant to it.

As there is sizable amount of people in the group, the jobs given will have specific roles. My rile in the groups is that I'm part of the team for assets and level building which is great because when I was creating my game for last semester, I enjoyed piecing together the level and creating it. I do struggle with coding on unity and this role does mean I wont mess that area up for the group but I will try to learn it though.

I cant wait to start work on the game soon and see what we can all achieve as a group and I cant wait to do my part to help and contribute.

Introduction by Nate

Hello, I'm Nathan, a second-year student at ITB. I'm 20 years old and from Cavan. This blog post is about me and hobbies, aspirations etc. If you're reading this, then I'm surprised you want to go through such torture. First of all, I really enjoyed CDM year 1. It was a great experience and felt it was fun and got to meet great people and do interesting things. I still can't get over the fact I'm in college or I even made it to the second year. Thought I would've had a mental breakdown at this point When doing the semester last year, I really enjoyed Storytelling and narrative. I find it fascinating to sit down and talk about films, I'm a bit of a movie buff so I did enjoy breaking them down and even tell a story or two. Honestly my biggest accomplishment last semester was actually getting through to second year and hell, even surviving it knowing me. My goals for this module is to plan out and hopefully make a small film for our group project as its

Game Vision Statement

Megaman style gameplay link: Link to image The genre of game I was thinking of doing was a retro style platformer in the same vein as Mario or Mega Man. What I mean by that is the game will be a side-scroller with enemies and possibly bosses at the end, finding collectables and use power-ups. The gameplay will take a healthy mix of Mario and Mega Man. The gameplay will take the style of attacking and powerups and consumables like Mega Man with the simplistic and casual fun Mario provides. It's challenging but not annoying or frustrating to the point of forcing the player to quit.

Final GDD

This blog post is about my final GDD for my game. This will help me plan out my game and know what I need to implement it. Here is the link to my GDD on Dundoc
