Noah Nam | Week 9: "Hold You Still!"

WEEKLY NARRATIVE

I worked on official screenie faces.

I added a placeholder "You Win" image when you return all mementos to the shrine.

I'm about to setup some Cinemachine cameras to record flythroughs of the levels.

CONTENT WITH HOURS

• Meetings (2 Hours)
• Screenie Faces (1 Hour)
• Game "Ending" (1 Hour)
• Cinemachine Camerawork for GIF recording (3 Hours)

WORKFLOW EXAMPLES

When the Screenie loses sight of you.

When the Screenie isn't doing anything in particular.

When the Screenie is chasing you.

POSITIVE OUTCOMES

• Screenie faces no longer tell you to remember these hands.

NEGATIVE OUTCOMES

• My whole weekend was taken up by CS283 and Senior Project, leaving me to do the Cinemachine fixed camerawork very late Sunday night. Zak has to wait for my work to come in.
• My sleep schedule is 100% gutted. I'm a bit tired.
• The camera still sucks and that was my responsibility.

POST MORTEM

I think I did OK, but there were other team members that spent way more time on this game than I did. Though I complain about my workload this term, there were other seniors also swamped with senior project and other classes who still managed to put in 20 hour weeks, whereas I only managed 10 at most on a week.

I submitted most of my tasks on time. I did my best to make it to all the meetings I was needed at. I tried to be available to communicate online about questions people had for me.

There are some bugs assigned to me that I haven't gotten to yet. I didn't go out of my way to ask for more work. A lot of my free time is spent catching up on sleep so I don't always get to messages ASAP.

In the future, I will hound my academic advisor when I get waitlisted on a class section. Because getting my major classes pushed to senior year really really really sucks. I don't have the time to put the effort I need to in my classes, so I've been spread thin and I'm barely floating by on passing grades.
