Daily Zoughts - Nov 02 2023 (Thu)

For the first time in a while, I went to playtest thursday. I didn't actually set up Revolution Wildflower, so I tried out two other Capstone games, Mycopunk and Lost Euclidean. Mycopunk is cool, and would've been my second choice for a project, but my main problem is that the game already looks...done. And Lost Euclidean was fine, but it didn't feel like it's progressed very much since I played it a while ago.

Alright back to the tier list, this time with sophomore year.

Intermediate Game Design: A. I had a good time in this class. A lot of the coursework was making new things for an existing game though (such as Portal 2 and Ramen Fury); maybe I should just put those on the website anyways.

Intermediate Game Development: B+. This was about Unity, however I docked it down to a B+ because I don't actually remember much about this class, and also the final project didn't go as smoothly as I would've wished.

Project Studio: A+. The project for this class was Antiquitus, and that was a fun time. We had a lot of freedom in that class and the teammates were fun. The only reason I'm docking points is because it started at 8am.

Into to Visual Communication: A-. The projects were fun and when presenting our progress, it was very casual and I could joke around. I got to do a presentation on Omocat and Omori, which was the game I was obsessed with back in 2021. I've since cooled on it but still think it's a good game. The sad part of the class is that it required me to draw and I can't draw.

UI/UX for Games: A. Again another drawing class. The projects were fun though, I had to record myself playing Megaman. I'm also giving the class bonus points because for most of it it was over Zoom, like all classes should be.

Tabletop Roleplaying Game Design: B-. While I did have fun in this class trying out some tabletop RPGs, the projects weren't as fun. I think ultimately I just didn't click with the genre that the class was about.

And spoilers for junior year's classes: Only 4 classes, but there will be 2 in S tier and 1 in D tier.
