Today I will be writing about 3 Unity Game Engine tutorials. The tutorials I will be talking about what I have enjoyed from trying Unity, What I am looking forward to and if I feel something should be explained more in depth.

HOW TO MAKE A GAME FOR FREE #001 - INTRODUCTION - UNITY TUTORIAL

The first video was a very basic guideline to what you will be doing in Unity. This video is an introduction to the tools available in Unity and how to use them.

An issue I have ran into whilst using the program is how to use the camera while creating scenes. This does change as I am working and it does get quite confusing as I am trying to follow the video step by step.

But after re-watching the video, I have been able to follow the instructions better. I did have to redo my Unity project twice. But I feel I have an okay understanding of how to use Unity 3-D.

I do still feel quiet intimidated by Unity, especially when I am following the tutorials and what I am doing does not match or I am having issues with using the camera.

Notes

From my reading of game elements, my understanding is that games have themes that are commonly used.
These games include decision-making, conflict, there are goals to be achieved and there is some form of outcome.
Games are defined as activities that take on various styles of simulation, whether its fiction or realistic.

Game atoms are the elements to what make-up a game. The various types of game elements include, players, interaction, rules, information and the game system.

Critical Analysis

Critical analysis refers to judging the game for its faults. I found this interesting as most people would assume that it would mean expressing if you did in fact like/disliked the game. What is also interesting is what are the key elements to criticizing a game. These include, acknowledging the obstacles the players may run into, are some aspects of the game fair, is the game good enough to play again and who is the game developers target audience.
