Animate 8

https://ca-net.herts.ac.uk/~sp22aby/Keyboard/







After experimenting with the keyboard on March 23rd, on April 20th I began working on my final animation. To begin with, I decided to code in the scene change feature to navigate each of the seven scenes, as well as that I have also completely animated the first two scenes without any dialogue. 

Though it was initially difficult to set up a canvas to facilitate interactivity and seprate scenes with the buttons, once I got over that hurdle, I began to work on the scenes in the animation, which was much quicker than the scripting and allowed me to take a more creative approach to buttons and was certainly a welcome change in the workflow.



The Plan:

Concept:

My idea is to do a futuristic spin on Goldilocks and the three bears. I wish for it to target families and act as a Public safety awareness warning about the dangers of data sharing. As such the navigation of each scene is simplistic but there is going to be interaction in each scene.

For the seven scenes, this is my current plan:

  1. Introduce the bear family
  2. introduce the Goldilocks Data Theft Robot
  3. Have the Robot enter the house
  4. have the robot steal all the data from each bear's social media
  5. Have the robot steal some other sensitive data
  6. have the robot destroyed by bears
  7. End slide

Storytelling and Gaming 3

I read this article today which covered some conventions of Text Based adventure games and one aspect which stuck out to me was the 'Story' vs. 'Scenario' idea where when making a text based adventure game, rather than making some grand epic about a fully developed world it can be a small scenario with lower stakes and less exposition to better immerse a player.   https://medium.com/@model_train/text-adventure-game-design-in-2020-608528ac8bda I also developed my idea for a story more so without the specifics as of yet. It will be about a Grave Robber who gets captured by Skeletons and has to escape the winding and perilous crypt. I think the difficulty will be mapping out the space and getting to grips with coding the scenarios with variables and such. Coming from a non-coding background, I think this'll be challenging Bibliography: Ainsley, C. (2020) Text adventure game design in 2020 , Medium .

Independent Project #9

Image
          These Screenshots contain all my progress for this week, I created an ammo box (The Blue Cube) which is based on the model/ code I used for the Health Item just retextured and set to change the value of ReserveAmmo Variable rather than PlayerHealth, I also created an enemy spawner (Dinosaur head icon) - it is essentially an invisible object that just places down enemies on a delay - fairly simple but is all I think I can really do with the short amount of development time remaining, especially as I'm not adding individual wave numbers, then there is the player barrier which you can purchase using points from killing Gibbies, so far I have only added the ability for a widget to appear asking if you wanmt to purchase and place the barrier but it is not yet functional - I will need to have it so it first checks if you have enough points and then subtracts however much the barrier costs as they will have differing sizes and costs, I will hopefuly work out the blueprint for th

First time on illustrator

Image
  Today I tried using adobe illustrator for the first time, I thought that I would have had an edge because of my prior knowledge with Photoshop however it is entirely different aside from aspects such as filters. I struggled using the pen at first as I had managed to completely avoid using it for my whole time using Photoshop after that it was simple but I still feel as if I have a lot to learn but as for basics I feel I am at grips with them. It was also difficult having to use the pen to cut out an object for example instead of using a background eraser or soemthing similar.
