Unity Tutorial 03

Unity Tutorial 03

This weeks unity tutorial I found harder than the previous two. I think it was because it wasn't a video and he wasn't explaining it in as much detail as Jimmy Vegas. 

I didn't manage to get the clock working as I couldn't drag the Indicators into the Transform section, I'm not too sure why but I think its due to an error in my code but I can't see whats wrong following the pictures and writing.

I enjoyed physically making the clock. I found though whenever I reopen my unity all the figures had changed to -.7890876 and the objects had moved. It was quite irritating to have to keep going back and make them back to the original numbers I set them at.

The coding was a lot more tricky this time round, it was explained why it worked and why it didn't but I found there was a lot of writing something and then removing it again and by the end I didn't know if the code was right as it was very unclear.

I don't think I would like to use the Catlikecoding again until I'm much more comfortable and have more knowledge of the Unity software.

This week our meeting with Shaun went well. For Thursday we will have our full functioning game. This week I've been watching videos on Animate CC just to get to grips on how the software works and how to use it. Video for simple animation Only half of this video was actually needed as the designs for the game have already been done. I started to watch a video where the game was made using html5 and java script which I thought could be cool because we already have some knowledge on HTML and JavaScript but as we are making a game for an iPad theres was no point in continuing his tutorials. Plus his voice was hard to follow and he wasn't the best at explaining what he was doing or why.                                        I am currently behind this week so I will be very busy on the game in the next two days to get it finished for Thursday.

This week Nhu Thai and I met up on Wednesday and discussed what we need to do and how we would evenly share out the work. We decided that Nhu would do the Main Menu, the setting page, level page and level 1 and I will be doing levels 2-6. We explored colours for the main menu page using adobe colour. We decided on yellow, blue, red and brown. We wanted use bright colours to engage the users attention. Nhu and I weren't sure how to share our files between Animate CC. We decided to try just sending the file to one another and copy and pasting it into one of the projects. That worked so we we were delighted to know we could easily transfer files. We were given the illustrations this week and are working on implementing them into the levels. We also looked at fonts. We wanted something fun and childlike but it still needs to be readable. After looking through fontspace we decided to go with KidZone and SchoolBell. KidZone was used for the heading and SchoolBell was used fo...

Week 8 Reading and Writing

Reading and Writing Review I find the reading assignments a bit long winded sometimes and I tend to lose focus the longer I'm reading it unless it's a topic I find interesting. I enjoyed the first few reading we did on growth mindset and time strategies, probably because they were new concepts to me and they were things that I could apply to my everyday life.  I do like learning about the game ones but I find them very long and I tend to zone out on what I'm reading. Some of the writing keeps me more captivated than others. I have learnt from the readings about games and I do think of them when I play games now and what makes a game "fun". I don't really feel like I've learnt anything new form the readings about Games since the first few, I think they've all been pretty similar so I tend to zone out from them. I used to read everything and then write my blog but I found that I forgot a lot of what I read so I started to write notes...
