Game Fun

I thought the article on MDA was very interesting, It thought me about the iterative, quality and quantitate. And how rules , system fun are the main components for creating a game. And then establishing their design counterparts.

I like how it also explains the ascetics, and goes into what makes a game fun. for example games like quake would express a challenge , the sims and final fantasy, the sims express the discovery, fantasy, expression, and Narrative etc.

The document on hearts clubs diamonds and spades was also very interesting it talks about the inter relationship of two dimensions of playing style.

    Hi Faruq
    It looks like you’re finally doing some work that’s new. The article was an interesting read and it seems like you have a good idea on what is it about. It seems like you enjoy reading these and reading through all them is hard task. You seem to know about the ascetics of games now thanks to the second reading.

    Well a good day to you Faruq!

    It has been very enjoyable reading your blogs that you have created in the past as I have enjoyed your style of writing that you have presented in these blogs. I am glad that you have gotten a clear idea of the readings from this week and that I am glad that you have a clear idea of the importance of fun that goes into game development and from playing games as well. I look forward to seeing what you have to write next and I must say good job with this blog.

    Cheerio!!!

Introduction to a future Designer

My name is Faruq Moradeyo a I'm currently a creative digital media student in TU Dublin. My favorite module I took in first year was design process, web design, and photography. I really liked design process because it thought me that sometime their is a process that the best ideas are made through a certain process. i really liked photography because it thought about that different way's of taking a photograph and different style's and approaches to taking a photo. i really liked web design because it thought be about catering to  what someone might be looking for in their website and how to make the color scheme match what the site is about. My goals for this module is to learn as much as i can so i can develop mentally and creatively, so i can become good enough to create great website and design logos and posters for companies. over the summer i went to Algarve which is in Portugal it was beautiful and i had a lot of fun there. The best movie that i have watched pro

Game Brainstorm

My first game Idea is based on secondary school PE class, and the game will be based on Dodge ball, where you play as a character who is trying to eliminate all his/her appointment's by hitting them with a Dodge ball, it gets progressively harder the higher the level, with an increase in the number of opponents and an increase in their accuracy. There would also be a change in location, depending on how high you climb up in the rankings. Quite a simple idea that I think I can expand on, and broaden. My second idea is inspired by a TV programme called 'Total  wipe out" and it's about contestants having to go through a obstacle course that is surrounded by water. The aim is to avoid going into the water and make it to the other side. There will be a lot of obstacles that will try and knock you off such as the "wall punch" players will have to time there movements in order to avoid the wall of raining fists. That's just one of the many obstacle course id
