Goals of the week:

  • Work on Initial Design Document

Summary of the week:

    This week started with the group presenting their game ideas to the sponsor Ms. Beth. These ideas were anything from how the game would work on smartphones to how puzzles would affect gameplay. Once the presentation was over, Ms. Beth gave everything in the presentation her approval.
    Then Ms. Beth showed the group one of the assets they can use for the game. The asset was a 3D model of the book's main character, DJ the cat. After showing the group the asset, Ms. Beth began discussions on how meetings would be handled during the holiday session.
    This discussion continued into the group's Monday meeting. The group decided that there will be no meetings on the week of Thanksgiving or during Winter Break. The group will continue to work on the game during this time, but no meetings will be held. This plan of action will need to be approved by Ms. Beth, but this seems to be the plan going forward. The meeting concluded with the group making plans for the User Stories Assignment.

Goals for the next week:

  • Discuss plans for Winter Break
  • Work on User Stories Assignment
  • Continue work on Initial Design Document

However, he was able to update the project spreadsheet. Meanwhile, Devin was able to add the changes he made over the past two weeks to the project.
