Jackson Harding - Personal Postmortem

  Personal Postmortem Things that went right: I was able to explore more and new technologies that I didn’t get to the last term, like making music using FL Studio. It was refreshing and cool to work on other things besides just programming in Unity. I got to learn more about mesh particles and destructible objects. I also got more experience with Unity. I attended most meetings and learned how to work with a large group. It was cool to be part of something larger and see how a large group operates. Things that went wrong: I usually started things too late. I should’ve started tasks earlier instead of doing things on the second to last or last day before class. Communication. I should’ve talked with my team more and discussed certain aspects that I didn’t understand. This would’ve helped greatly in areas that I struggled with on the project. Hardware. I did not have a controller to test. I only have used PC for game development and play. I did not have much experience with console ...

General Updates:   This week we made a push on the levels. We are much closer to having the game entirely blocked out. The game is shaping up, and it feels like we finally gotten to the point that we can take refining passes on a lot of stuff.  Personal Updates: I made new particle systems to replace the heat, player/enemy explosions, and the gas explosion. Tied into that I also took a crack at enemy destruction, I got something tentatively working, but it was only for the purposes of testing the vfx; it is not production ready.  Time Designing/Modeling/Implementing new particles: 3 hrs I made some color moodboards to help guide the design of assets for the levels. They took a little longer than they should have because i spent time recoloring images to match each palette.  Time spent on moodboards: 2 hrs I touched up the level design in the village based on the feedback from the previous week. Added some spinners back in, moved enemies around, etc.  Time spent ...
