Game Testing!

Hi Guys,

Welcome back to my blog, its finally week 11 which means we are almost at the finish line! Its been a long semester I can tell you that much!

I know its only Sunday but as I am sitting here building more of my world I thought it would also be a good idea to do the reading before Tuesday as it then gives me an extra hour on Tuesday to do something else! 

Anyway this week I am reading an article called Giving Criticism- The good, the bad, the ugly!

I really enjoyed reading this article and I found it very relate able, for instance when the author talked about how when you say you don't like something it could end up in an argument it is so true, I always find when it happens to me I'm like please do not ask me for my option if you do not want me to be 100% honest with you! You have to be able to talk criticism without being offended as we are just giving our honest option!.


Constructive criticism offers valid feedback which is both positive and negative, it is important for much needed assistance, it can also keep feelings from being hurt by focusing on things that need to be improved while avoiding insults. 

it explains how it is important to keep your criticism clear, understandable and relevant as it can be stressful to give as well as receive the criticism.
Anyway guys, that is all for today! Hope everyone has a lovely evening!

Reading 5 - Conducting & writing my analysis!

Hey guys, For the readings this week I am starting to write my analysis. After looking through my matrix and the significance of each of them I will be writing about the similarities of each of the articles that I think will be important to use.   I have be looking at my sub topics in more depth and looking for more relevant information that can be used to write my chapters. This weeks reading has taken a bit longer then it should as I think its important that I fully understand what I am looking at and what I am using to conduct my analysis.  What I have learnt from narrowing things done is that a lot of articles I have read and saved onto my computer are all repeating the information which I need, this means to me anyway that them documents are essential for my analysis.  (Update) After speaking to Shaun this morning, I am starting to feel more confident in my topic, I am aware that I need to work more on my matrix for my second topic which I am ...

My First Game Brainstorm.

https://www.123rf.com/photo_83383233_close-up-of-notepad-with-creative-brainstorm-sketch-and-colorful-pencils-brainstorming-concept.html Hi Guys, Welcome back to my blog, in today's blog post I will be telling you guys about my ideas for my video game. When I think about making a game I think it needs to be a game that everyone will enjoy. After having a look around the internet I know have a good idea of what my four possible games could be. Game 1:  For my first game I would like it to be similar to The Sims 4. The Sim was first released back in 2000. It has many different versions of the game which has made this game the "best selling video game series of all time". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sims  . I have always like the idea of being able to build your own imaginary life on a video game, from personalizing your characters, to building your own houses/business, to earning money, to having relationships/friendships within this video world. I would ...

Introduction to me being me!

I never know how to write about myself. I always feel so embarrassed and I don't know why😅 Like last year when Margret asked us to do a video about ourselves, I wanted to cry as I never know what to say about myself without sounding big headed! So here comes the cringe fest.... My name is Elizabeth, I am 23 years old and I was born and bred in Maynooth. It is a nice a place but now its just full of college students who are taking over (I know i'm a college student but these people are from the country you know)😂.           I still live at home with my mum and recently my boyfriend Dan has moved in with us as well. I have a sister Meaghan who is getting married next year to her fiancee Lesley. In the last couple of years we have also gotten in contact with my half sister, so our family just keeps on growing which is great.  We are a very close family and I wouldn't have it any other way. I am very lucky to have such amazing people to be there for me ...
