Development Log.4

 Intro/Recap: Continuing on from last time where the symbol puzzle was made and more level additions were made, I have created a pickaxe item which can be picked up and stored in your inventory as well as boulders that can be destroyed with it. Another thing I made was an elevator and a key and lever panel so that you have to put in key to turn on elevator which will take you into the first level underground.

What has changed/added to the game: I added a elevator into the game just a simple one which will take you down with a nice camera fade and shake, In addition to this I made a control panel that goes with the elevator where you have to find the key insert it and pull down a lever, I also added ambient noises around the levels as well as creating the door to the next level.

How the rest of the team is doing: A lot of what i have been doing has been the same process over d over again mainly just being me adding another puzzle so with the project nearing its end there's also a lot of other things that nee to also be sorted that others in my team are working on. Evan has been hard at work creating level 3 whilst finishing of level 2 also they have been managing the workflow of the team to make sure everyone knows what they are doing. Gemma has been hard at work creating 3d assets such as props for the game and creating some art for ui ect. Emilia has been on creating the narrative and coming up with concepts and also a few ui stuff.

What's next: As this is the end almost for the project a lot of what's next to do is put everything so far together and try make the best experience possible with what we have already and try and solve bugs that are still around. There's so much left to do and so little time so we wont have time to create anything else really unless its something very simple so we will be adapting and improving already put in systems and mechanics.

Friday's Meeting Write-up: What happened - My team and I created a PowerPoint presentation with a section for each of us to speak about individually and multiple sections which apply to all of us. Over a teams call we presented the presentation to Ellie Buchan showing the progress of our game where the idea came from how its changed and what are future plans for it are. Evan spoke about his section on level design the idea of the game and overall project management, Gemma spoke about 3d design and art which is there section creating different models and menu images for the game as well as a short trailer for the game, Emilia spoke about the story of the game and level concepts and finally I spoke about the programming side of the game as the only programmer. From this we gained lots of useful feedback for our game and its development which has provided us with much benefit for the continuation of this project. (This is my slide of the presentation.) What I learnt from this event - ...

3d modelling my classroom and games jam

  Introduction Hi everyone, in this post I will be talking about the process and my overall experience with 3d modelling my classroom and completing a games jam. The purpose of this is to share my Games Development journey with others and to look back on this myself. How 3D modelling my classroom went The steps I took to recreate my classroom in UE5   As this was a group project, we both had plenty of time to work hard on our roles making sure the 3d models were as accurate as we could get them and having a map planed out. When it comes to the 3d modelling my teammate got straight on to doing as many models as they could in the time we were given and that was their one goal which they just had to focus throughout the entire project. Most off the steps only affected me as I had to create the project, make world and import 3d models trying to get the map looking as close as we could to the classroom as possible.   The first step we took was knowing what our ro...
