Comment 4

This week I have commented on Merve’s post

My comment was as follows

Hi Merve, and thank you for this entry.

I think your jellyfish design is very beautiful and it’s interesting to read about the process you went through while designing and animating it.
As a game designer I appreciate your explanation for your choice of colors and amount of tentacles, which proves that you had logical motivation behind every decision. This, as we have been taught, is the essence of design. Also the speed of the jellyfish’s movement is tweaked to fit the aesthetic goal of your game.
As a graphics minor, I like how you reasoned about color based on what we have been taught in class, and how you solved the “problem” of making a transparent jellyfish using an optical illusion rather than actual transparency.

The only thing I would have liked to hear more about is how you solved some of the difficulties you seem to have faced, or more in detail what you learned from animating the jellyfish.

All in all it was a very enjoyable entry, and I look forward to see more of your work after the game is done 🙂
