Now that the deadline is less than 24 hours away, I want to close this project by reflecting what I have accomplished over the course of 13 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One thing I want to mention is that my goal for this project was space out work evenly throughout my week so I don’t get burned out easily. I found out the way I can efficiently work on this project was to allocate enough time for me. Self care is also very important to me as it boosts my motivation to work on a certain task and it gets it done efficiently. Unfortunately, I am someone who finds it hard to work under the wrong circumstances, so maximising and planning my day in advance really helped me out. In this project, I pushed my boundaries in terms of how much a single person could produce, creating 7 characters in a month served to be a difficult task, but pulled through in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, as a personal goal, I feel like there were aspects in my art development I could’ve had the chance to hone, but was too intimidated by the scale of the task to even begin trying. For example, I could’ve drawn out some of the environments in greater detail. Although the art style I have chosen for this project allowed me to do things in a more simplified manner, there are plenty of games out there that can have simple art styles and environments but still make the it look cluttered- in a good way. Even though looking at what other people can produce can sometimes be daunting, it also serves as motivation for me that if indie developers can make games of a vast scale, surely I can. If given the opportunity to conduct my own project again, I want to be given the chance to explore environment design and further hone my character designs in a way where they catch a player’s eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
