Welp its over, I don’t know what to say everything in have to say is in the Post-Mortem. I’m disappointed with my performance and how the game turned out, I have nothing else to say

progression has been good. only 2 code to do now. It will be completed its just that the game will not be as I envisioned form the beginning. I understand what my strengths and weaknesses are now. I am not as confident in my ability to code as I was before most defiantly.

I have done it finally i have made the blog a part of my routine, why did it take so long you may ask, bro i don’t know. I admit that i am not a good student, i’m non productive and loose focus easily, being at my parents house once again has made it more difficult to properly work on projects. I am forcing myself more than ever to have more of a grasp on my productive process. I don’t know how, but i have broken though my stubborn nature enough for my efficiently to increase. this is reveling, although my work ethic is not as strong as i would like it to be i have been able to maintain some kind of flow for the first time in a while. The terrain is finally implemented in unity and now i am placing foliage, adding lightning effects and camera effects as well as refining texture quality. AS i place more foliage in the world i have begun to create a consistent style and color pallet that greatly pleases me. The vehicle movement system still bugs me and i will ask for assistance in thinking up a more refined code during the one on one. Since i am the most interest in perusing environmental design as a career i have been directing my attention towards the world while making sure to meet the project requirement. Hopefully i can create a full project i could be comply proud of. If we can receive an extra week of class i would feel confident that my product will be of quality.

I have implemented the terrain finally into unity. it took me way longer than expected and i am a bit disappointed because of it. I am now working on the texture for the terrain. Because i had the free version of Word Machine the tiling has become more difficult due to it being the free version. Currently angry at company’s from always wanting my money so i will save this as a learning experiencing and move on. A lot of what i have done so far has been trial and error and most of my time has been occupied by doing something just to find out it will mess up and i have to do it all over again. Its annoying and i am frustrated but its fine i guess.

This isn’t related to any project i’m doing, i just wanted to say that i spent the day building a standing desk. I basically just have a desk with a smaller desk on top of it but, hey I got to be out side with real air for more then 30 minutes today. First time in like 2 weeks that happened.

I don’t feel comfortable with withe global situation but there isn’t much i can do about that so i don’t worry about it much. I am worried about how i will preform now. over break i have not worked much on the project. I decreased the scale of the project not because i am trying to adjust for the new situation, I did it because i am not confident in my abilities in the environment we are now living in. I have been experiencing more amounts of stress and i am simply not confident.

GDDv2:

Because of the problematic events that have occurred recently, I will have the level design shifted to accommodate for the new situation. Level design will be more aesthetically focused. The amount an complexity of the more technical elements will be decreased slightly.

In not necessarily happy withe the progression of the assignment. Its difficult to balance what i desire to do with the project and the other assignments i have for other classes. As well as events in my personal life which have made it difficult to focus on all of my assignments. I keep forgetting to do the blog posts and I am not excited about losing those easy grades.

I started work on my schedule a few days ago but i do find myself having difficulty trying to estimate how long some task will take compared to to others. I already presumed coding would be the most difficult part of the project because I have difficulty picking up coding.

I do feel slightly uncomfortable starting this but you got to do what you got to do.
