First Playable


Image from my first playable

Last week I started on my prototype for my final game. Despite running into a few problems I found it relatively easy. This week however I added to my prototype in order to make my game playable. I was really panicking at the thought of doing this as game design isn't one of my strongest areas however with a little help from the tutorials and my lecturer I managed to fix a few issues I was having last week and get further ahead and it turned out to be easier than I was expecting. At the moment I am now able to make my player move and turn with a speed of 20.0f; and a turnspeed of 45.0f; and I'm able to make my player knock over the obstacles however I might change it so that he destroys them instead of just knocking them over. At this rate I'm actually enjoying playing the game myself. I still have a few finishing touches to go. I still need to make my player destroy crates once he collides with them and I still need to add a game over message for when he falls off the road in the game and a you win message once he destroys all the crates and then I will be done my game and hopefully with the help of a few tutorials I've previously watched I'll be able to do this no problem. I look forward to seeing how my finished piece looks.

    Hey man this is looking quite nice, clean and easy to understand but sounds fun to play :) It's great that it's playing off how you want it to play, and I'm glad your having more fun than you initially realised you would, this course can be tricky but we're pretty lucky to have a load of tutorials online and a lecturer just a call away if needs be, can't wait to see how your game turns out!

    Hi Eoin! I am liking what I am seeing so far! This game looks pretty good in development! I am glad that you are quite happy with your efforts in making this game. Its also great how you are finding this a lot easier because of all the tutorials we have been doing even though that game development isn't your strong suit. I can not wait to see how your game turns out and I believe this will be good! All the best in your designs!

  My name is Eoin Harrington. I am 22 years old. I am in 2nd year in creative digital media in TUD Blanchardstown. The photo above is a picture of myself (and a pretty good one might I add). The best classes I took last semester were digital photography and storytelling and narrative. I enjoyed digital photography because I have an interest in photography and it was fairly easy and I passed it. I enjoyed storytelling because I have an interest in filmmaking and it is what I want to do when I am finished this course so I ended up with a basic idea of what it was like to actually make a film as our main assignment was to make a short film and I then passed it which made me very happy as I now feel like I might actually be good at it. I enjoyed introduction to digital media as well because it was interesting learning about the evolution of digital media and I enjoyed doing the essays as they were interesting topics. Web development was an interesting module however I did find it very chal

My Favourite Game: Grand Theft Auto Franchise

 GRAND THEFT AUTO ( https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/logo-grand-theft-auto-game-samsung-tablet-grand-theft-auto-gta-action-adventure-video-game-series-created-david-113844972.jpg ) My favourite video game franchise is the Grand Theft Auto franchise or as it's otherwise known GTA. Grand Theft Auto is an open-world action-adventure video game franchise where you play as gang members who mainly specialise in car theft hence the title Grand Theft Auto. The first Grand Theft Auto was released in 1997 and its most recent title Grand Theft Auto V was released in 2013. Grand Theft Auto V is currently the best-selling video game of all time. The franchise consists of seven main games and four expansion packs. I like the whole concept of these games. I like that you have the choice between playing missions and completing story mode as well as a really enjoyable free play. One of my favourite things to do during free play is police chases. My favourite game in the franchise is Grand Theft Auto

Game Alpha

Image from my game This week I have continued working on my game like I have been doing every week. So far I have been enjoying the process of making the game. I decided since I have limited time to just make my game simple rather than stressing myself out to make a brilliant game. So far I have my player moving and my crates disappearing however I'm still having issues ending my game. Strangely enough when I type in my game over code my crates just disappear without me even moving my player. Once I manage to end my game I feel like I will be ready to wrap it up so the sooner I get these issues fixed the better.
