My World

So last week we had our first milestone for the new game i’m working on. This milestone is called the proof of concept. The whole point of this milestone is to prove to our investors that we have the ability to build the technology for the game we pitched a month ago.

So what we ended up pitching was a basic menu in place with some menu music playing, a simple animation playing for our avatar in game, the ability to shoot a fireball and collide that fireball with enemies who are just a bunch of spheres set up around the level, and finally some simple platforming in with a mix of simple gravity. Notice how I mentioned simple alot, we really wanted to focus on gameplay elements since that’s what most of our game is truly made up of.

So we ended up doing really well on our POC, our External Producer Brian was really happy with what we came up with.

I am currently in the process of uploading our most current build were working on up to my website, but it shows what we had for POC with some more tech added as well. Feel free to leave me feedback on the build if you’d like.

You can download the build in my projects section or download here.

Ok so it’s been a while since i’ve posted. A LOT has happened since last post, our team ended up failing our first class so i was reshuffled back into a new group. So far the group is great, we have a bunch of passionate guys which can be good but also has it’s downfalls. We do argue alot but it’s always about our game which is great.

So my graduation date is now pushed back to Febuary 2009, but it was for the better. But been busy designing our Asset list, Gantt Chart, and Tech Doc these past few weeks. We are very eager to start programming in the next upcoming months.
