In response to Michaels post mortem, that can be found here.
Hi Michael, I want to start of by congratulating you on completing your project! I did get a chance to play the game and while I was one of the testers that did not agree with the difficulty of the game, the controls certainly made it feel like operating a strange machine, a good thing in your case.
Your postmortem blog post is clearly structured and nicely summarized how your […]

Hello Samantha, Adam Olsson here programmer from group lycanthrope. You give a reasonable explanation and recap of what you and your group has been doing these past weeks. I find it interesting to read what challenges you have met under your work, and I can relate to your struggle with the group changing things you came to agree to the last week as my group tended to do similar things from time to time. I can see the […]

Postmortem: Team Qilin’s Aetherial
Finally! The end has come! This project have been somewhat hellish, and reaching the end feels more freeing than I’d care to admit (although I suppose I just did). Many things went wrong, but many things did also go right, and the fact that we made it is something I’m very proud of.
In the end, team Qilin’s Aetherial turned into a quite simple shoot ‘em up in which players operate a flying ship hunting down a murderous invading Moby Dick […]

Postmortem on Behemoth
After many weeks of working together with my group, our game is finally finished and has been sent in to the teachers for grading. It was a fun project, but as the we started pushing into the last two weeks I started getting impatient and wanted it to be finished as fast as possible.
Most people who played it said they enjoyed it, although it had some quite glaring issues. There were a lot of assets I really wanted to make, […]

Hello Alec!
I am glad that you are happy outcome of the project and that you learned something in the process.
As you brought up the minimum viable product, it came to me that I never even had a thought of this during my teams project. To see that teams had difficulties with this, will hopefully help me in the long run as well, so thank you for bringing this up in advance.
One thing that confused me a little […]

Hello!
So as a beginning statement, I would like to start by saying that the artifact which is the postmortem has been clearly stated throughout the blog. I also find it interesting to see the things that you consider disappointing about the game getting investigated and even showcasing parts where problems arising from other minors of the group is good criticism. Showcasing that you have learned from your mistakes and won’t be letting to happen again shows your motivation for the […]

Hello!
Firstly the artifact which is the playtesting was mostly stated but I feel like you didn’t have the need to add the Alpha presentation to the conversation as it just isn’t correlated to the theme. Whilst the process of playtesting is being told, I also feel it didn’t have a need to be stated where instead of it’s place more writing about the effects of play testing could have been available.
Other than that the process of understanding the faults thus […]

Hello!
I would like to start with your structure being quite simple and understandable by any reader and clearly concentrates on the artifact which is the tutorial design. The process behind designing the tutorial is told in a way where motivation are included which is that players have a hard time understanding essential gameplay mechanics and tutorials. I would agree on this as the game you’re making Behemoth had the difficulty of multitasking, thus making it quite hard to understand for […]

Hello!
Firstly I would like to start with the comment of that your blog is clearly organized, well written and clearly investigates the viewed artifact which is the Scrum. This is seen with your 2nd paragraph focusing on a general aspects of Scrum whilst your 3rd paragraph clearly focusing on the sprint planning. By focusing on the sprint planning aspect you have achieved a better showcase of the process of the plan between the group. The motivation is clearly stated as […]

Hello!
I would like to begin with the comment that I believe that you have successfully investigated your artifact on your blog by showcasing your entire process. The connections you made between the animations and the “Sky Ray” creature such as the tail problem where it didn’t feel right. The process of production is shown from the beginning to the end with visual intensity which helps the reader relate to it much better. Thoughts and failures are also showcased which makes […]

Hello!
So firstly I would like to start with the comment of that you have clearly stated and described your chosen artifact in a detailed manner. I would like to also add that focusing on something as simple as a line, yet showcasing that it isn’t as simple as it looks like, makes the investigation of the artifact much more interesting. While the production process description of the artifact doesn’t feel that detailed, which is understandable as there isn’t too much […]
