Week 8 Comments and Feedback

Reflecting on the feedback!

Feedback in: 
I must admit, I am surprised by the quality of the feedback and comments that I got on my blog. I think most people won't really try, but I was wrong. I got a lot of very positive feedback and they are nice to read.

Feedback out: 
When I comment, especially on game ideas, I try to give somehow constructive criticism and give the students some ideas that they can implement or maybe expand on. I try not to sugarcoat anything, because I know it won't be too helpful. There are times though, when I have hard time trying to find someone to comment on, as the randomizer gives me people who aren't doing their blog or those who have 10+ comments already. 

Blog Comments: 
I don't feel that blog is a space where I connect with people, but I did learn some things about others from their introduction posts.

Looking Forward: 
In a lot of cases, the feedback is forced, which isn't a good thing, so I would probably change it so that there is only either feedback homework or comment homework each week, instead of both.

Unity Free Tutorials

For this week. I got a chance to pick my own tutorials which was kinda fun. At least I got to look for something that will be useful for my game. At first I thought to follow the tutorial series by Jimmy Vegas because things mentioned there are pretty useful - like the particle system which is so versatile and vast, but instead, I decided to go with some of his other tutorials. I been thinking for a long, long time how can I include a minimap that would be displayed in the corner of my screen? It turned into a bit of my nightmare, because I wasn't able to find a lot of information on google and even if I did, it was confusing... so this tutorial helped me greatly. And, there is no coding which is even better for me, because it tends to confuse me. Source This video goes through npcs and textboxes which, again, will be something I will use a lot in my game... Once I somehow get the npc's in.  The tutorial starts off with downloading the NPC from the Asset Stor...

Game Design Document

The following video is my presentation which talks about my idea for the project and the story for the interactive story. I think it includes everything that it was meant to be included and if not, I can always add in more.

Annotated Bibliography

As part of the exercise, we made a mind map using Coggle to come up with words that relate to Multimedia. At first, the idea of mind mapping was a little bit confusing, but after few words were added in, it became clearer and easier to understand the purpose. Source Based on the Mind Map and my project idea, I decided to research Interactive Storytelling. I did another Mind Map, just focusing on that single topic to make it clearer. I have used some points from the version we made during the class. The next and final step are the annotated bibliographies. I have searched far and wide to find articles and case studies that would be related to the topic I picked but its very hard, as apparently interactive storytelling is often used in organizations and companies.
