Final Project Week 6

-

 For this week, I had begun the production stage of my game project. For this, I had taken the block out level and had began turning the BSP brushes into static meshes and creating textures for them. 


Here, I have done much of the exterior of the building. To do this, I took one of the static meshes and had duplicated it to quickly build up the level.







In this week, I had also created the first blueprint code for the level. This is a blueprint where if the player presses E on the electrics box, all the lights in the level turn off. 








To do this, I created a static mesh object of the electrics box with a red point light and a collision box. Then I created a Boolean that will toggle when a player is in the box and presses E. This Boolean toggle is then checked by the lights and if the Boolean is set to false, the lights will go off.



This blueprint will help my game level as it add a different mechanic to the game level about visibility and lighting.


The next things I will be doing is continuing to build my level, add furniture and 
create more blueprints.

Summer 2024 Solo Project Dev Log Week 1

  Summer 2024 Solo Project On Monday the 6th of May 2024, I have begun creating a solo game project during the summer of 2024. I will be documenting the development in dev logs on this blog.  To begin this project, I created the base documents that I will use to figure out all the different aspects of my game concepts. These documents are: A game design document (GDD), a level design document (LDD), a technical design document (TDD) and a idea generation document. These documents will explain what the game is, why I am making this game and how the game will work. In standard industry practice, there would also be a Narrative design document (NDD), however, where I am working solo on this project and that this game will be a simple game fundamentally, a document about narrative is not necessary. I will document narrate in both the GDD and the LDD. With these document templates, I create five folders with copies of each document in each folder. These folders are for a different ...

Final Project Week 7

 In this week, I decided to create a formative feedback form for my current game level. To do this, I when onto Microsoft Forms and created a form and showed off the current build of my level to multiple people which then gave me feedback using my form. From the results of this feedback form, I had learned that players end up being lost and/or confused when playing my level and that the objectives on the map where not clear. This is a issue that I will need to address soon in the levels development. I had also gotten feedback about the vent system and players would want a more expanded vent system and a chance to go into the vent system in the game. I will have to create a quick block out of the new expanded vent system and the implementation of a crouch button. The next tasks for me to do are to expand the vent system and to implement a crouch button to enhance my game level.

 For this week, I had finalised the block out of the level. This means that the pre-production phase of my project has been completed and that I can move onto the production phase of this project. I had also conjugated all the work so far into a informative video which shows all the pre-production work. The video can be viewed here:  The next step is to begin turning the BSPs into static meshes to create textures and begin turning this block out into a proper level environment.
