Feedback Thoughts

-


Feedback is extremely important, not just for a better product but in order to grow as a human being. However it is a strange situation when your most harsh critic is actually yourself.

To this day I find that the person who always whispers in the back of my ear that I can't do it is actually myself. Self-doubt is in my mind something that can easily destroy a human being and keep them from reaching their full potential.

I found this quote to be very good in describing how I have sometimes felt.

"Sometimes I feel like a spider whose web is repeatedly torn down. I plan something and start taking action. Then life happens, and setbacks threaten to sap my energy and enthusiasm."

Countless times I have thought of doing something yet I always give up believing I am simply not up for the task. This is something that I need to change about myself. Hopefully now that I have entered college I will become a softer critic.

 Welcome to My Blog - Robbie Cahill B00132167 This is my first Test Blog for the second year of multimedia development  Hello my name is Robbie Cahill this will be my blog for Multimedia Development in my second year of college in Creative Digital Media Course, at Blanchardstown college. I am very excited to begin this brand new year of college and have a wonderful experience with all my fellow students. But before beginning I would like to give a little introduction and share some information about myself. During secondary school I was very shy and quiet, I made it a point to keep to myself and never really interacted with any social or extracurricular activities in my school. I didn't get good results in tests and didn't have high hopes for my leaving cert.  However once I got my leaving cert results I did far better than I ever thought I could, thanks to a combination of rigorous studying and grinds. After finally putting Secondary school behind me I had another conundrum fa

Game Brainstorm

 There are many possible games that I could make for the project  One game that I believe could make for an interesting experience is A dungeon crawler type game, This would be one that has the player endure a dark and grim fantasy dungeon. The dungeon would have a specific aesthetic, whilst there would stone walls, jail cells and perhaps a portcullis and a drawbridge there would also be hints that this dungeon has some sort of magical power which the player must fend off but can see occasionally. Whilst in this vile pit the player would need to fight various horrid monsters, these could include ogres, goblins, orcs, dragons, hellhounds, demons, giant insects and skeleton warriors. In truth any creature from any and all myths and legends could find their way into this dungeon, there could even be a level with a sea monster which has been trapped underwater and now feeds on whatever adventurers it can catch. Perhaps each and every single one of these evil creatures were once humans just

Game Idea Research

Previously I considered a variety of ideas which I could translate into a full video game. However most of the game ideas were far too big for me to do. I believe that there was a single idea that could work very well. Creating a racing game where you drive about on a long stretch and try to avoid traffic. I firmly believe this would be better for my current skill level. A game with more scale would require more time and likely more members. I also believe this link could explain why my peers could enjoy a racing game One mechanic that I believe would work very well is actually jumping. In the game I used to play you could jump over traffic. This was vital as the longer you played the faster you went. It was a very fun mechanic, seeing a large taxi leap over other cars in a cartoonish manner always brought me endless amusement as a child. New obstacles would also benefit this game, such as overtaking buses and other fast vehicles. Although there could be other types of obstacles added
