Game Testing


For this week I read an article called 'Giving Criticism-the good, the bad, and the ugly!
The article is about criticism and why it is effective and how a person can go about giving someone criticism without hurting the persons feelings.
Why giving criticism can be a good thing:
Criticism can be a good thing because it offers feedback, either positive or negative. Giving criticism can benefit the person receiving it as it can better their work/project.
If you want to give good constructive criticism, then…
1) focus on valid and unbiased feedback and…
2) make your criticism clear, understandable, and relevant.

The poor way of giving constructive criticism:

  1. That logo design sucks, who the heck would pay for something like that!?
  2. I hate red and green, why not use black and white instead!
  3. I can’t read the text.


The good way of giving constructive criticism:
  1. The balloon font used in the logo seems a bit too playful for your business, do you think a serif-font might be more professional?
  2. 10% of the male population has red-green colourblindness, you might want to ensure that your colour scheme won’t turn away potential customers.
  3. There isn’t much contrast between the background and text colour, and the font size is a bit small, so the text is difficult to read.

Overall, criticism can be very helpful for a person who get its because it can help them improve their work.

Who Is Aaron Hogan? My name is Aaron Hogan. I was born on the 1st of March,2000, which makes me 19 years old. I live in Clonsilla in Dublin 15. I went to primary school in St.Mochtas and went to secondary school in Castleknock Community College. I am currently in ITB in Blanchardstown studying Creative Digital Media, I am in year 2. I really enjoy the course and have found out new skills that i never thought I'd be able to do. First year was enjoyable and I made a good few new friends. My favourite module was Web Development as I found it interesting how much stuff goes on behind closed doors to make a website, and i also loved the feeling when you created your own website. Over the summer, I went to Portugal with my group of friends. It was the best holiday ever! Nothing better than being in the sun with your mates having a laugh and a few drinks around the pool.  I also went to a few festivals. The first one I went to was Longitude in Marley Park. I thought it was so goo

Prototype This week I have thought more about my game. I've decided off many people suggestion it that I should include a time limit in my game to make it more fun and exciting for the player when their collecting the items. I felt like I was getting better with Unity when following the tutorials but when I try to start my game off by scratch, I felt like I was kind of lost about where I should even start. I spent a good while trying to get my character to look like how I want him too but I found it difficult. Over this week , I will like to have got everything sorted but I think I need a lot of time during this week to get all my items and character and setting sorted and ready to go. I have a picture of the items and obstacles I want to include into my game: An image of the items/character/obstacles I want to make on unity. I will work on my Unity extra hard this week to make sure I get everything I need done and I will add my progress into my blogs straight away.
