 Sprint 1

09/03/24-09/15/2024
Sprint 1 was a short progress week. I was and still am excited about the possibility of this game's outcome. The design is one of my favorite art aesthetics related to Greek mythology. I oversee this upcoming game's 2D art and modeling as a designer. Even though I am one of the designers, I need to double-check the progress relating to the lead designer. We are waiting for the wireframe and design document so we, the designers, have a clue about the art concept of each little detail—nothing more and nothing less than an orthodox view of the gameplay. Low poly is the main objective, yet most models have to have double sub-smooth for unreasonable shape objects needed for this project. I have faced multiple issues regarding the asteroids I have been assigned to model for this sprint. I tried to minimize the polycount for a low poly, but I was getting numerous ngons. It took me a while to figure out how to construct a single asteroid's crater on a sphere shape. I would also face unclear save file scenes of one asteroid opening up of a white noise mesh. So, I had to save multiple files to stop the outrage of a mesh object and keep the original shape from the last save.
The kick-off was in a whip. We hadn't had the chance to meet up and list what tasks we would be a sign for any upcoming sprints. I just needed to choose some tasks from the backlog and see the 'need' and 'must want' before 'wish.' I voluntarily picked to be a sign with the three asteroids, which became a challenge that I conquered.
As I mentioned, I only completed one of the asteroids with the concept art of all the asteroids to differentiate each individual. All I need to do is finish and texture the rest before starting a new task of modeling one of the enemies. I hope that in the upcoming sprint, I can progress even more than this sprint.

Postmortem Overall, being a level designer was very exciting, and I expected someone unique to create the most straightforward, functional, and exciting things. This postmortem of a prototype meant a lot to me because I will always imagine the wholesome feeling of creating a game by having an outstanding team in forming a simple foundation. It is a 3D platformer with unique movement mechanics no other match can ever think of doing relating to the game's premise in general. I appreciate my teammates' hard work and dedication to helping one another and surpassing any obstacles that might hinder our project's completion. I would always wonder if I was a programmer and not a level designer and thank god I wasn't. There might be a variety of bugs unfixed for the final project. I am not a strong programmer, but I do have some knowledge of it, not as a professional but as an average. Everything was just the basics of working toward a strong progress development as we planned f

Postmortem This final sprint is the final stretch of completing this unforgettable chaos combat of developing this mobile game within six months from start to finish. As a level designer, I cannot believe the hardship my group faced in these last moments of a stressful environment. As a group, we conquer multiple failures after failures, but in the final days, we accomplish more than we ever imagined. We hope to add more, but that will be for another day or time when we group again. The only requisition we, as the group, needed was time management and communication because other personal issues interfered with the project from different classes and individuals.  In development, we had some occasions where everything went in our favor, so we developed this production within our limits. We accomplished any block out from our meetings and gatherings by sitting next to each other and communicating during the process. The patience we had faced if GitHub, Android Studios, Unity, and Google p

Final Game Scene The Google Slides above represent the dedication I resent consider as what I can actually do.  I have been having difficulties with the module modeling for this entire project. Unfortunately, I only completed the first UV Set on time because I had errors throughout Maya and Unity. I tried my best to accomplish at least one of the buildings within my capacity and understand the concept of doing module modeling differently. To understand the frustration and the progression, I'll deliver a post-four-week dedication and patience throughout this project. Week 4 Post The final week wasn't anything I had ever expected. The only way to proceed is the method is to divide the objects of four into one layout or just decrease the size of the object UV so it can fit into the scale 0 to 1. Exporting into Painter was divided into groups because I wasn’t able to use multiple layers without having them colliding with one another. In Painter I was the substance material defau
