Current Classes - Projects

For the Fall 2013 semester I am taking three classes. Two are in the game design department and the other is a elective for liberal arts. The semester is almost at an end (two weeks to go) so the workload is pretty hefty while putting the finishing touches on projects.

Mid-point Review and Thesis Prep Class:
For the final, a mock-midpoint presentation will be done next class. To prepare I will make modifications to my midterm presentation and update the information. I also need to compile all of my documents into one PDF file. My gantt chart also needs to be updated with the courses that I plan on taking in the upcoming semesters. If time allows, I would like to finish the user interface for the main menu of the game to provide in the presentation.

Scripting (in Unity) Class:
We are currently working on a on-going project started for the midterm. Each class we are learning a new game mechanic and applying that to our game. One think that I would like to work on is updating the art for the project. I found a new assets in the Unity store that I want to apply. In my first attempt I was able to apply the assets but some of the placeholders for need to be updated to new locations.

Crossing Boarders Class (Liberal Arts):
Before the final, our second project is due. The theme I selected for the project is Utopia/Dystopia. The project has two aspects for completion. Artwork needs to be created and then a three page paper describing the art work and how it compares to another artists. This past week I was able to complete the artwork. My next step is to create a outline and then write the paper.

This is my week in a nutshell.

Getting Started

This blog was created to follow the progress of my thesis project, Cami's Cafe. Posts will be created to keep track of the schedule and what part of the project is being currently worked on.

Quick look into Cam'i's Cafe:
After working as a sous chef for San Francisco’s top rated restaurant, Cami is ready to start her own adventure. With two years of savings, Cami’s Cafe is ready to make its debut. Cami’s Cafe brings an exciting adventure as Cami opens her first restaurant. With years of experience under her belt, what can go wrong?
