Video Game Relfection

TECHNICAL

I learned how games are created, and how to edit them.

IDEA OR CONCEPT

My idea for this game was about homophobia, and it was trying to show how homosexual people will not hurt you, or make you "lose" the game.

INFLUENCES

No particular person or thing influenced me for this game, I did, however, use some celebrities that are homosexuals.

COMPOSITION

I tried to make the "poles" (the celebrities) as equal in size as I could.

MOTIVATION

I just wanted to complete the assignment.

CRITICAL ASSESSMENT

I would try to change the bird if I had more time, as it wasn't working when I was trying.

Animation Reflection

TECHNICAL

I learned how to animate, as I didn't know how to before

IDEA OR CONCEPT

I turned my ball into a flower, because I really like flowers and I thought it would be cool to experiment on it.

INFLUENCES

No one influenced me for this project.

COMPOSITION

My eyes seem to travel wherever the ball drops, they also look at the background because I thought I made the clouds pretty and realistic.

MOTIVATION

My motivation for this assignment was wanting to try something new, I had never animated before this so I wanted to complete this task to prove to myself that you can do something if you have your mind set on it.

CRITICAL ASSESSMENT

I think the most successful part of this assignment was the squish when my ball hit the ground and there was some cute little sound effects. No parts of this process surprised me, I found it sometimes tricky, however. If I had additional time, I would possibly make it longer, and make my flower more realistic.
