Category: Stage Three

This week I looked into the Development Research segment of the Assignment, as well as completing the Source References.

For the Development Research, I needed to look into what would be used to help me with the execution of our game, Cosmic Conflict. This included research items like the software that would be used in the development of the game, as well as any techniques, tutorials or lectures that could prove useful to assist both the team and myself in building the game. This section used up the time allocated on Monday and Thursday.

This left the Source References for Friday, which I was able to complete with ease, which allowed me to hit the deadline for Monday next week. I am pleased with how both myself and the team have been performing throughout this Stage.

This week marked the start of Stage Three. To begin I decided to plan out everything that I needed to complete over the next few weeks. This included the written work needed (Content Research, Development Research and Source References), as well as anything else we needed to complete as a group.

This week I spent my time writing the Content Research segment of the assignment, which outlined what will be in the game. This research was conducted to help me with the game play, environments and the function of the game. Finding the primary research needed only took me the whole of Monday to complete, whereas the Secondary research needed more time set aside. This was all complete by the end of today (Friday 9th March).

Overall, I feel this week is going well for myself and I am on track to hitting the deadline set for the work.
