Reading 05 : Tips for doing research

Pictures of some of the Articles I have completed reading

For this week's reading task, I am glad that I was already doing the techniques that were instructed for us to do. I was very delighted as I was already highlighting important things before as I read the essential articles that I have collected from last week. This was the reason why I was behind with work because it is taking me a while to read an article as I was taking notes while I go through the article to help me save time when I started to write my annotated bibliographies. I also found out that I can insert the PDFs to the Notes application on my tablet therefore it made it easier for me to work and read the articles even though I am not working on my table.

During this week, I tried my best to read the rest of the articles I have found and started writing my annotated bibliographies in a more detailed version and make sure that the articles must but useful to my topic. Coding the articles to take notes is very helpful and it would make your work easier. You will be able to remember what you want to write about and do not have to look back over the article. Hopefully, this coming week, I will be able to complete writing my annotated bibliographies.

Here is the link to the word document where I am writing my annotated bibliographies:

Twitter List!

Lee jong Suk giving you flowerrrsss Hi guys! How are you doing? I tried to create a List on Twitter. Link to an external site I have never created a Twitter List before so it is a new experience. I also think that this will be useful to me especially in the future as I want to explore more about animators and designers and learn from them. I also think that creating a list of specific topics would help you to find them easily and it is more organized.

Game Idea Research

Maze Inspiration Last week, I started to collect some game ideas and talk about what we like about them. However this week, we have to choose on out of all the game ideas we picked. The game that I decided to do is similar to "Roller Splat!" but in 3D instead because that is the type of game we are learning in Unity. I think that it will be helpful as I can utilize the skills that I learned from the tutorials to my project instead of studying another type of game. I will have more time to develop my game better if I stick to 3D style as well. Choosing this type of game is also a good starter, especially for people who want to make a game for the first time like me. My game will also be played in a first person point of view means that the camera of will be placed at the back following the ball inside the maze. While doing my secondary research, I find countless of game tutorials on YouTube that are related to the idea I am going for. Most of them are also made in Unity which...

Unity Tutorial 04

This week's tutorial lesson was very straightforward and easy to follow. I also did not have any problem with the Unity tutorial videos and the software this time which I am really glad about. I learned how to apply codes that can destroy the objects when the collision is detected. I also know how to add the "Game Over" message in coding if the farmer missed feeding one of the animals. The tutorial lesson also taught us how to spawn the animals at timed intervals so that the animals will appear randomly on the game. Here are the things that I learned for this week's Unity tutorial: Lesson 2.4 New functionality: Animals are spawned on timed interval and walk down on the screen and the animal gets past the player without getting fed, there's a "Game Over" trigger massage at the left bottom of the screen. When the projectile and animal collide, objects are removed right away. New Concepts/Skills: Create custom methods/functions InvokeRepeating() to repeat c...
