Unity Tutorial 03

 Making a Clock in Unity

This week I have done a tutorial that teaches you how to make a simple clock using primitive shapes like cylinders and working with them using the scale and position to make a working clock. The tutorial also utilises C# to help, as the shapes on their own are just a hierarchy of assets put together. This basic format helps me to learn more about using Unity.

 Making a clock in unity following the tutorial.

I thought it was very easy to follow but interesting to learn. Knowing more C# through the tutorials is the most interesting part for me because I can definitely see a couple of similarities between C# and HTML and CSS which I also do in CDM, for example, the use of "classes" and a similar layout as CSS. 
I did have a bit of trouble with the coding because it took some time for me to read through what the code actually does for the objects in Unity and to understand it better rather than just typing it in and not getting what it does. Overall I think these basic tutorials are great for learning gradually as there is a lot to know about how to use Unity correctly.

This is a little introduction post for this blog as I continue my course into the semester. I think CDM has been interesting so far. It's quite different from last year. Last year, the best class I took by far was Photography, it was so fun and I loved taking photos in such an artistic manner. I loved going into the studio and using the flash and playing with the lighting and setup. It was a really interesting module and I'm a bit sad we don't have it this semester. I'd definitely love to do some more photography again because it let me express myself in so many unique ways using various techniques taught to me in the class. I'm not sure I'd like a career in photography after I leave college but I will say its very fun so far. This is a very early photo of my cat Bella I took when starting out with my DSLR camera. I'm glad I take so many pictures of her because I like to look back on them! My goals for this module is to be competent enough in Unit

Final GDD

This week, I have finalized by GDD ( https://www.dundoc.com/project/4800/9ci821tfu4 ) and made a good few changes to it. I have expanded on a lot of concepts that I have written about, and updated the concept art. I have also included new pictures which give a better image of the kind of game I want to make, including the atmosphere I want to invoke in the game. I used this picture to show the sort of scary, moody atmosphere I want to implement into the game. I also made some changes and added to the gameplay descriptions, giving more specific and detailed explanations.

This week I have created a much more in depth GDD, expanding on my Game Vision Statement. I put a lot of thought into creating this vision. I have included information such as the controls, what kind of art style the levels will have, and weapons I have done this on a site called dundoc.com which specialises in creating game design documents. I have laid out the necessities of the game, beginning with the story and characters and continuing on into the art, levels, and gameplay mechanics. Here is the link to my own GDD:  https://www.dundoc.com/project/4800/9ci821tfu4 My Game Design Document.
