Here I\u2019m going to be documenting everything about my second project of year 2, where I am taking on the role of the Technical Designer<\/strong>. For this Project my team and I will be brining to life the roguelite adventure game “Lament” by Anna Bonadio.<\/p>\n\n\n

As the Technical Designer, it is my job to “lead” the project, communicating effectively with my groupmates and ensuring that art and programming side of the project mesh well. However, as the person with the most experience and knowledge with programming and Unity in general, I will also be taking upon the role of primary programmer<\/strong>, while delegating some programming tasks to our mechanics designer with detailed explanations of what to do and how they could do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Project Brief<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis module represents the next step in the development of the Games Design module. You will take forward one of the Game Design Documents (GDD) from the previous module to create a \u201cVertical Slice\u201d<\/strong> from said GDD and, during the semester, work within a team, to realise its development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Take an in-depth approach to understanding<\/strong> and translating a GDD<\/strong> into production and utilise methods to realise in-depth research<\/strong> and professional team work<\/strong> methodologies, to create the related assets dependant on your role within the team.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Weekly Sprints will take place to inform team progress. The teams for each \u201cVertical Slice\u201d will be set up in the form of a small indie game operation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Your own role <\/strong>will determine the specific nature of your work, be that translating mechanic ideas into code, or concept art into working 2d or 3d game assets.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
