Game Design Document

 This week I started developing my Game Design Document. I created it using the website Dundoc which had me very confused at the start but once I got the hang of it I was fine! The link to my document can be found here. I'm happy with what I have included so far and I I will update continuously over the next few weeks and my game develops!

    Hi Sean, It Mia,
    I just read your Game Design Document there and I have to say it was very well put together! I love the name of your game its very catchy and also the plot of the game is great! Your document has so much information you can tell you spent alot of time working on it, you definetly included so much more detail than I did in mine, and it was great to see as I felt as though I can vision your game now. Best of luck when creating the game I know it'll turn out great.

    Hi Sean, I hope you are doing well! I really loved looking at your Game Design Document I thought it was really well done and you explained your game in great detail. I do might suggest to maybe have music as your background as it really would liven up the game and since it is a driver simulation game maybe go for fast-pace music. Otherwise the idea is brilliant!

    Hi Sean, just after finishing up on reading your game design document and I really liked your idea. I feel like you have your document laid out very well and is easy to read. You also put a lot of good information within the document, which really helped me to picture what you are envisioning for your finished game. I would recommend to maybe add some music to the background, which would liven the game up even more. Best of luck with the game!

    Hey Sean just read your game design document and I am loving the idea of your game! I thought you put it together really well, you added a lot of information. This really helped me imagine how your finished game is going to look. I can't wait to see it finished. Keep up the work and good luck with the rest of your game making!

    Hey Sean,

    I enjoyed reading your GDD especially because it was a bit different than the rest that I've read so far. It's very detailed and it shows that you've put a lot of thought into the game which makes it easier for yourself when actually making the game. One thing I have a question about are the levels. I know you mentioned that there will only be one level but it would benefit the game in my opinion if you added maybe one more level just for replayability.

A Brief Introduction To a Life in Isolation

For anybody in the CDM course who doesn't know me yet my name is Seán Clarke and I'm 24 (until Sunday). I'm from Dublin and live in Swords which is about a 20 minute drive by car from the Blanchardstown Campus or what feels like an 8 hour bus journey in the mornings. I'm not going to talk too much about my upbringing or anything but more about what life in lockdown has been like for me. Enjoy and I hope I don't bore anybody too much! So the first time I heard about Coronavirus I didn't think anything of it really and I think majority of people felt the same. I thought it was going to be like the bird flu and that it was being blown out of proportion. The first time I think it felt real for me was when Daniel McSweeney came in to our lecture and gave us an update on how it was going to affect our college life. It was quite daunting at first and it made me nervous for both the rest of the semester and life in general.  The last sense of normality I was trying to t

So this week we had to start creating our game. It's been a busy week so the first thing that I done was set a timer on my phone for 3 hours and sat down to get the work done. What I achieved this week: -Creating Project -Organising Assets needed -Creating River for scene -Creating Jungle for scene -Bringing the Player (boat) into scene -Creating FollowPlayer and PlayerController Scripts Creating Project The first thing that I did is the easiest part of the whole project - creating the project file in Unity. I went to Unity Hub and created a new 3D project which opened up my new scene.  Organising Assets Needed The next thing that I did was looked back on my Game Idea research where I had posted some different links to assets, I gathered the ones I needed and used them along with a few new tutorials to complete the headings below.  Creating River for Scene When making the river I created a new Game Object on Unity and under the 3D option I chose "Plane". I then went to Go
