MD2 Beta

This week is about the beta for our game and the state it is in and also what worked and what didn't. This week we had to present our games, talk about what they do and show them off to our peers. Then we'd receive feedback for the games and any criticism we'd need going forward to make improvements, both from our lecturer and peers.


The presentation was fine, we had some elements locked down and were fine but we could've showcase more of the game and had more in it in some area. I was involved in asset management, I had to collect interior assets for some of the interior sections of the game like the GPO, offices, and a hospital. I collected these through unity asset store and find mostly free assets as we don't really have a substantial budget, although I did find one asset that needed pay. This is an easier process for us as we don't have the skills or manpower to make our own assets but if we needed to more people will need to help there.

By the next blog, I hope to have more info for it and more work and possibly the game will be functional and more work is done.

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...

Multimedia Assignment: Prototype work

Recently I have started working on my prototype for my Game. I started it on Unity and im following some unity tutorials on how to make platformers, not to copy them but to see what I can do and point me in the right direction though. The prototype is going fine, progress is slow but im trying to get stuff done though, I can imagine only getting substantial work in Multimedia labs though. Also, another issue is finding the time to actually get some work done on the prototype as I have other assignments and having to commute up and down to college every day. Other than that, work is going along fine, working on previous unity tutorials has helped give me some experience in helping to create the game and the detail added to my GDD has helped too as it will give me some focus for making the game too.

Alpha build of game

For this week, I had to continue doing work on my alpha build of the game. Work is going along well, the character is moving and the controls are working well and the levels final design is complete, all that needs to be done is to add a 3rd person camera, skybox, textures and some gems to collect. Here is a screenshot of the game so far and the character model all the textures need to be added to add more life but other than that, Im happy with it so far.
