Week 20 - Creating Game


I have missed today's class, as I had to travel to Edinburgh along with my mum due to an NMC court case related to her. I have already informed DR. John about my absence. I know the next time I see my team will be the week after because, the university will be closed next week for Easter holidays.

Actually I have missed all the classes this week. The case was running from Monday - Wednesday, so I didn't manage to do any course work at all. I was so retarded both mentally and physically.

I will catch up with my team, as soon as we back from Easter holidays. I talked with Andy in Facebook, and he said, everything is going well.

Week 19 - Creating Game


For today, I produced few feedback questions based on the game play and these are the questions that I would expect to answer, as a mind of a player. According to DR. John's prospective, we have to nail down a top 10 feedback questions. Strictly no more than 10 questions because, the feedback session would be expected to last about 5-10 minutes, and people don't want to sit down for an hour to face the fiery of questions. But, I ended up with writing 19 questions, and  struggled to choose the top 10 out of them. I thought it's best to share it with my team mates, and with their help, I thought of scaling the questions down to the top 10.


In the lab, I discussed the questions with my mates and manage to identify that 10 unique questions. Stephen said that he will edit those questions to make it look more structural, and Andy was agreed to format the outlook of the feedback sheet for the professional look.

Week 18 - Creating Game


Today during the meeting with John, he enquired about each team members assigned role for tasks. At this stage, I had to admit to him that my arms are crossed. Since, I produced the QA plan in the week 15, I have no tasks to do what so ever. All I did during this period was concentrating on other modules studies. 

Finally, as per John's suggestion, I have got some task to do. I accepted the task of producing 10 unique feedback questions, and arranging game alpha testing session with a bunch of UWS students. He recommended us to go to the Hamilton campus to arrange a feedback session, as well as another session with few students in Paisley campus.

It was quiet inconvenient for us to travel to Hamilton, especially me,  so we decided to arrange a feedback session within Paisley campus with a bunch of 1st or 2nd year Computing students. First of all, what we needed was 10 unique feedback questions. I agreed that task to get it done for the next week. John promised us that he will arrange us few students from the 2nd year when it's come to the testing stage

Week 17 - Creating Game


Yet another day that I left with nothing to do for the team, but the game is very much progressing. Does it mean that our team is producing such a quality and speed. Even John said that, he is very much happy to see our progress, and he likes our game very much than the other two teams. He considered our game is much more functional and productive, so no wonder he is quiet impressed.

We discussed the game progress with John during the meeting. He was so curious about knowing the marketing of this game in Twitter and Facebook. Our Late Panda fans are incrementing day by day, and we assume that means our studio is getting among popular.

This week, I decided to continue working with Jim's assessment. I think it is due for next week, and I must get through it. Hopefully I will.
