DIT Blog
My DIT Blog week 7.
Mon: In game design we were making our own card game in groups. I was with Jordan, Luke, Nathan, Miyoa. We made a kind of Strategy Defense game using the King,Queen,Jack and two other random cards as potential targets blocked by a randomly assigned defense value. The goal is to kill the opposing King. We started programming a game called Bug Zap with Byran.
Tues: We were working on Bug Zap to try and finish it in the lab today. I spent most of my time trying to make it look good but didn’t get it to work in the end.
Wed: We had a talk with a new guy today in creative practice, Damian Gordon. He talked to us about the PMI decision making system created Edward de Bono (Billionaire). PMI stands for Plus Minus Interesting. You write down all of the good things about an idea, then all the bad and then all the interesting things that could happen. In Ludology we discussed the use of narrative story telling that Naughty Dog are famous for, (you know post Crash Bandicoot).
Fri: We play tested our Atari games to get feedback.
