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.

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...

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.

Game Design Document

I am part of the Chris Carneys and James Reynolds team for the game, the game is a 3D experience of 1916 Rising. We are going to recreate Dublin from references. Description of the Game: "You play as Micahel “Foggy” Fogarty, a 16-year-old boy who after witnessing the murder of his father joins the Irish Republican Brotherhood. Foggy travels with his division to Dublin, Easter weekend in 1916 to take part in the Rising and is tasked with passing messages from the GPO to other key locations the IRB and Civilian Army holds." My role in the production of this game is GDA Creator, I work with the writer and team leader to create a GDA to help out other teams and to help the writer sort out the story, names and characters. Here is a video of the GDD: (NOTE: The GDD in the video was created and provided by Chris Carney and James Reynolds to the group, I did not create it nor do I take credit for its creation or the ideas in it)
