This week, I worked with Rebecca to come up with the storyboard and plot points for our game (refresher: AI governmental ambassador goes haywire, and its your job to fix it (or not)). We have decided to host it on Twine, and that it won’t revolve around our characters. However, our characters will be involved in the story as background characters or delivering messages to the player. The player also won’t be required to interact as their character, though that could certainly be interesting! We’ve decided to divide the game into chapters, with each section focusing on a different conflict. Chapter I is the beginning, Chapter II will have the bulk of the AI conflict, and Chapter III will be the epilogue. With Twine’s choose-your-own -adventure format, the way that these three sections interact with each other could change drastically depending on how the player chooses to interpret the prompts. We are going to finish the game next week! While I think it will be time consuming to create different narratives that all interact with each other and come back to the same conflict will be time consuming, I don’t anticipate the actual writing to be much of a setback.
And, unlike always, no Daily Creates to share this week!
” The gif looked really good, and I was really impressed with Liv’s skill. Next, I commented on Cinder’s unreadable text DC, theirs was my favorite from the week. They found an illustration that looked like men in a pool and said it was the first pool party, which was very creative. The thing that makes me laugh, is that the men are naked and the water is green. I commented, “Hahaha I love this idea and the added speech bubbles make it even funnier. But there’s one aspect that I can’t overlook… if that’s a pool, why is the water green? What are they doing in there?” I am very curious to know if that crossed Cinder’s mind when they made that Daily Create. The last think I commented on was Ryee’s question mark daily create. They used Procreate and played around with the the different brushes to create a question mark. I commented, “I like the chaoticness of this brush! I love Procreate, it’s so much fun to doodle on!” Last I checked, procreate is only available on the apple store, which stinks because I don’t have an iPad and I would love to have the app on my laptop.
more blehs. Please reference my posts for work complete, I made sure to pull together the group and offer avenues for communication helping with delegating and references items provided to give information when needed, keeping track of tasks and items that had to be completed as well as doing my best to keep up with set deadlines while offering once again ways to keep everyone in the loop. Learned that trying to work an audacity file together may break it bummer but making sure to make the best of tools available like google drive. Offered content that could be used to further the project even if it wasn’t utilized and made sure to offer not only my opinion but my professional outlook. Asked questions to create a world and kept track of whatever was needed. Held my tongue when necessary and spoke when I needed to. Understood communication styles and made sure to reflect that preference when I had to. That’s just people 
. As for technical work I aided in writing the script offering character suggestions and sound suggestions found tools that everyone could utilize to lessen the burden and took on an extra load when needed.
