Today was a new unit. We finished off the last unit on Friday and we have moved onto games development. I have been looking forward to this unit because game design is a fun unit and I have always wanted to learn more about designing games and how to do it.
The program we are using for game design is GameMaker. I have used this program before about three years ago so I have some knowledge of how it works. Before I made a platform game and that worked well but now the whole program is quite different. It has a different design however I enjoyed playing around with the program.
We were given a tutorial about a simple game. Some people were getting confused with it but in the end we all managed to finish the program. Some people did add more after the tutorial such as a background and some background music. I did not do too much and I started to work on a different game however I did not get too far with it.
Overall I am happy with today and I am excited for the unit ahead. I cannot wait to learn more about GameMaker and make our games. I will download GameMaker tonight so I can work from home and also practice from home.
