The End of the Begining!
It is thursday now and we have been able to work together pretty well these four days. We have gotten to know more about the programmers and have starten to find the room more pleasing since we have gotten new chairs.
Here is also a link for the design document.
Game Design Document
The programmers have by now read the game design document and have had many questions on how things should work. Questions like how the shots will fly from <THINGY>, how the the walls will work or how the turn mechanism should be. Some questions is still on stall or more like work in progress and we will have them written down more precise in a updated Design Document that will come pretty soon.
Also more graphical question have come up like how will health be represented and how the over all graphics will be. Many ideas have been brought up and will be tested when the first version of the game is up and running. We also have an hardware problem, our programmers do not have the ability to use shaders because the graphics card dont support them. This is of course just a minor problem since it has nothing to do with the game play.
We designers work on different areas right now, Johan is working on the graphics for the NPC <THING> and the player bases and I have started to create the sound effects and the game music.
