Man has it been a semester. I’m trying my best to graduate in the summer but school has been a meat grinder. Luckily this class isn’t the meat grinder, its a fun vacation almost. I nice creative pursuit where I can relax and do something fun while not needing to think about RESTFUL api.
So far my team has been incredible. We are well organized, are communication is a lot better than it use to, and we are getting a lot of progress done. Our biggest struggle at first was trying to get a vision for this project. I was the only one with any actual experience with Board Games, and we kinda sorta didn’t have any direction from the TA’s due to a clerical error. So It wasn’t until that we really got the ball rolling.
This course is going well. The classes are well structured and I feel like we have plenty of breathing room. I’m glad it so hand off and we really get to express our creativity. One thing though I would like to know if coming into this we are actually prepared or if we have to start grinding research just so that we can get our project done on time.
We have started to learn a bunch of new tech to help us along, from unity and its plug ins, to how to host servers, we are researching a large amount of tools and platforms so that we are able to make our project successful. It feels like every second we put into it we need to do even more than what we thought but I’m here for the journey.
We are using everything from C++ and C# to get our coding done, vscode for a coding space, and github to store everything. Discord is our flagship communication network, and we are getting stuff done in record time. I have good hopes for the future.
