Week 8 Blog Post
2:22am: Writing this blog post at 2:22am on Monday morning to summarize what was done during week 8 doesn't seem like a good idea to anyone else reading this, but to me it is a great idea. I have time to finish and polish off my game for this subject while watching the football team I support, Chelsea, play live in England, so it is the perfect reason to be awake at this time. Presently Chelsea are winning 2-0, so everything is going to plan....
2:27am: Well, Hull City (the team that Chelsea are playing against) have scored, so it's now 2-1. It could be worse....
2:28am: It is worse. Hull City have somehow scored again. 2-2 now. I can't even talk about my Space game without focusing on the match. Ahh, the life of a mad fanatic.
2:29am: My computer monitor has more programs open than a TV shop owner. Lucky the screen is big enough to accommodate all these open tabs.
2:31am: Finally, a lull in the sporting match, so i can talk about my game. Everything was finished off during the week, with the problems that I encountered last week with programming sorted out, models textured and audio added to the game. Also a menu system was designed, but the main focus was on the game level. There may be one or two aspects that i may not get to fully complete, like the timer stopping when the player is destroyed, and the score being shown upon the Win/Lose screen. Hopefully in the time between now and class today (23/3/15) I can figure out the respective code and finish it off. But aside from this, the rest of the game works how i want it to.
2:52am: The match is 2-2 at half time, hopefully Chelsea can get the win.
3:26am: The match is still at 2-2, and there's only 20 minutes left. Get a goal, boys! In other news, the textures won't show on my explosion in the game. I don't know why, all the textures are there, but they won't show. So annoying.
3:36am: My prayers are answered! Chelsea have scored! Winning 3-2 with 12 minutes left. And also, the textures have now appeared on the explosion! Good times!
3:52am: Full time and Chelsea win 3-2! Really important win. I've also done what i need to on my game, sleep is necessary now, 3 hours should be enough??
P.S: I gave up celebrating my 19th birthday on Saturday for this assessment, it better pay off.
