Sprint 6 Mobile Game

 Sprint 6 

Nepo Society 

Going into sprint 6 my workflow was less than every other sprint my team has had so far. I took tasks that I'm not used to but with the help of my team they led me in the right direction to get it down. The task was doing UI for unity, something that I have done before but lost knowledge of.  The task was creating a shop for the game and the making of it was done in photoshop with the help of my team to create the outline for it. I was using the shapes provided in the software. The only thing was the rectangle shape was not so great, so one of my members told me about the anchors tool to make the corners rounded.  

This was the outline of the shop. I created something simple not over complicated and wanted a color that popped for the players' eyes. I choose a purple outline to catch the players eyes and a grey interior to not have colors blend to the purple. The next item that went to it was the creation of the card that will have what the player is going to look for and buy with in-game currency.

I decided to go with colors that go with everything not too bright, not too dark to give it a simple look. The cost and limit will show the players how many purchases they can make until they run out so they can purchase something else in game. 

After getting all of the cards lined up I started putting the name of each card and what stat that they are boosting in game after purchase. For the icons I downloaded them off the internet with a transparent background so that the yellowish color shows with the icon and not a white background with a picture. The shop is still being updated. I'm going to put a description on what the boost does so that the player wouldn’t guess what it does, they can just read and decide if they want it or not. Once I got everything done it was time for audio for the buy button. I was confused on how to turn the sprite into a button and with the help of the team I was able to turn it into a button, and search a video to help make a script for the audio that is for free use for our game. The audio was for the buy button so when players click it a money sound will play so it feels like they are purchasing something in game. Another addition to the game was background music so that when people play they aren’t playing in silence also free use so that the game doesn’t get copyright striked or us being sued because of no credit shown to the owner. 

Background and BuySound

Last addition to this sprint was once the player clicks the shop button a bell sound will play, making the player feel like they walked into it. Going into the final sprint I am going to put more sounds that I found for the game. One of the sounds will be when the player clicks any button they will hear a sound each time to make it feel like a mobile game. Another one will be if the player succeeds in training they will get a sound that sounds like they have been rewarded and a failure sound letting them know they didn’t get what they wanted. I’m going to work a lot with the programmer to help plug in the work that I did so I don’t mess with coding and not getting this game released in time.

Sprint 3 KH Destiny Island

                                                      Sprint 3 Kingdom Hearts Destiny Island Going into sprint 3 I helped modeling and texturing new props for our scene of Destiny Island. The sunken ship was a prop that I first started off with. The only problem I ran into was getting the shape of the boat itself but figured it out after messing around with a cube and inserting cuts to make the shape possible. The Watchtower needed the other tower so that when the race section is added the player will zipline from the watchtower to the other end. I made the wood planks bigger for the character of unreal to be able to walk around without falling off. Another interactable object that the player will go and collect while on the island is a rope that could be found outside on the floor. In the Island the player will wonder how the pl...

  Soar Kickoff 2 Kicking off sprint 2 I assigned the group the tasks that they needed to complete for the two weeks that we had. I assigned myself with the UI of handling the main menu, pause menu, and the game over screen. The first thing that I tackled was the main menu screen so when people get to playtest the game they will be greeted with a screen with the name of our game, and buttons to either play, go to controls, or to quit.   I wanted the main menu to have a background to be something close to our game's gameplay, so I chose the mountains with chasms. During gameplay the player will be flying through chasms being met with challenges and being able to fly above and enjoy the view of the sky. I provided the player the option to look at the controls to have a clue on how the player controls work before going straight into the game. I provided pictures for the player with text explaining what each button shown on screen does. After I got the main menu down, I went to the...

Sprint 3 Kickoff

Soar Kickoff 3  Sprint review three starts off with me the producer assigning work for the team so we can go in knowing what to do. This sprint we needed to have a build for the class to playtest so we can get feedback and solve the problems that come. The first thing that I tackled was the enemy models, even though we didn’t need art the lead designer felt like the game needed color and character builds. The game has three enemies: the sitting still, the follower,  and a forward enemy. I took the role of taking on the sitting still enemy and the forward enemy and then passed the models to the lead designer to texture them. I followed the guide of what the characters are supposed to be referenced from as best as my ability. Both characters took me around an hour and a half to create, UV, and color Id. I made the weapon for the main character, it being a spear that they will have all game. At first it was going to be a sword from the first sprint, but later was changed for it b...
