Postmortem

After eight weeks of teamwork and every group members’ efforts, we finally completed the development of this shoot’em up game. I believe that everyone has learned something that they can help themselves in future studies or work from this experience. I also believe that everyone is eager and ambitious for the next arcade game project. This is a menu screenshot of the final version of our game:
I can say that our team and I are satisfied with the final version of our game. Our group prepared several questions for the last playtesting, such as: · What was your favorite moment in the game? · Do you have any final words for us? In this playtesting, we got feedback from 31 playtesters. I don’t really want to list the answers we got of these two questions because almost every answer is different, each playtester enjoys a different moment of enjoyment in the game. The reason I have shown these two questions is that we got a lot of good feedback, which makes me really happy. Since this is the first shoot’em up game that I programmed. I feel a great sense of accomplishment. Through the course Game Design 2: Game Development, as a member of a group, through these eight weeks, I have learned the division and cooperation in the group. I have also learned how the Scrum framework worked during in group work. Such as, make a sprint planning before a work phase begins and make a sprint review at the end of the work phase. I believe it will be helpful not only for my future group work in school but also for my future work in a company. As a programming student, through eight weeks, of course, I have learned a lot of programming skills. This is the first time I have used unity to program and make games. So I also encountered a lot of difficulties in the process. But I have solved the difficulties which I encountered by watching the tutorial videos online or discussing the problems with other programming classmates in my spare time. I am glad that we have been able to get through this game in eight weeks. It gives me a lot of confidence for next arcade project. Thanks for reading my blog! I hope you all can finish a good arcade game in the next project!  |
