OVERALL REVIEW

MYSELF:

• Learnt a lot, more softwares. Learnt from mistakes then solutions
• Dealt with bigger team than last year, lots of experience
• Done more 3D models, texture
• Learnt to fix 3D models and things
• Sorted out own workflow on 3D works

• Need to speed up much faster workflow, need lots more practice: sketching, modelling, sculpting, some 2D assets making
• Got lots trouble doing 3D and handing over the other teams member
• Need to have low poly for team first ( I was a bit confused before on how to low poly things - Lars said he could do the rigging on high poly and apply on low poly later, we didn't make this point clear)

DESIGNER TEAM:

• Had some visuals for game
• Applied toon shader, and got all basic elements
• Had animations and make game live

• Lack of communications
• Horribly slow on making visual assets (I don't blame on anyone, I might be the slowest)
• No normal maps applied
• No weapons are used
• The style was not polished well

PROGRAMMER TEAM:

• Connor Broad was the heart of the game, he made everything of the game
• Very early to have the base of the game
• Ding Yu worked on some UI, but we didn't apply them
• Game mechanics is developed weekly 

• Only Connor worked on coding was not enough, so AI couldn't be pulled out

However, it was a bigger team than last year, something might be worse, but I appreciated working with my team overall. :D

FUTURE THOUGHTS:

• The gameplay is entertaining. In my opinion, we can push this game much further to make a really great game.
