  Source:  Reddit In this unity tutorial I learned how to make the game background repeat itself, make the game stop when the player hits an object, stopping the background repeating and stopping objects respawning when the players lose. To make the background repeat move seamlessly was quite easy but it took some fiddling to get it how I wanted it.  Overall, I enjoyed adding new elements to the game, like making objects stop spawning when the player loses the game. Even though it was tricky to implement some elements in the game I found the tutorial to be valuable because it has some mechanics worth considering putting in my game.  I wouldn’t really say I found anything difficult I just had to change a lot of stuff and watch the videos in the tutorial a couple of times to know what I was doing wrong and how I could fix it. I guess I’m looking forward to learning more about unity, because I can learn more about different aspects of games and use them to create my vis...

    This blog is about the learning and performance zone, the learning zone is about wanting to improve and doing activities to improve, the performance zone is about doing the best we can, concentrating on what we know and trying to make little to no mistakes.                                                                    Link to video:  Eduardo Briceño Eduardo Briceno talks about the learning zone and performance zone in depth in a Ted Talk. I thought that the video was very engaging and informative. As he talks about the effects of the learning zone and the performance zone  on a person, and what times they should be used depending on the environment. “Once we think we have become good enough, adequate then we stop spending time in the learning zone, we focus al...

 This blog is about The Secret Powers of Time, in the  video psychologist Philip Zimbardo talks about how people’s thinking can be focused on the past, present, and future and the effects on their lives.

  By reading these papers I was able to get a better insight on Game design development, and its importance. Game Developer , Communication and Game Design Documents . A game design document is a document that contains the main objectives of a game and ideas from the Game development team. The document is work between designers, artists and programmers, it is used to guide them  throughout the game development process and make sure they stay on track and meet their goals. The document  also serves as another way to keep good communication with the development team.  From reading this paper ( Communication and Game Design Documents ) I have understood the importance of game design documents. I think they are necessary for a game development team so ideas can be communicated clearly which will lead to the game objectives being met and making a good quality game.  Game design documents are really important as it is a beneficial step in the process of making a g...
