Year 2 week 24

Year 2 week 24

I miss first year!

I kind of miss first year. As in the work load or the course structure more like. Last year was a lot more stressful and required a lot more time management. Yeah the work was a lot easier but we had strict deadlines every single week which meant that we had a lot of pressure to keep up with them. Yes this year is a lot more difficult in terms of work and skill level but there isn’t anyone to have a go at you if you miss deadlines but yourself and I hate having a go at people so there’s no way I’m going to have a go at myself. 

Alice project is starting to come to a standstill as I’m out of ideas. There is only so much you can make and put in a forest of trees and mushrooms before all you want to do is climb trees and eat mushrooms. I’ve pretty much finished all my assets and there is barely anything. I need to go back to the drawing board and get creative. I’ll need to make a list of assets I can add such as a path or some signs to point the player the right way. I really want to take control of the cat but I can’t just steal someone else’s work of them. I would love to animate him so he floats about the map telling Alice what to do and where to go. I think I’ll be able to make some really nice animation trails and particle effects for him. I think one member has already modelled the cat so maybe I should ask if I can take over from here that way I get more work to do and I get to learn more about animations!
