Sofia's Week 10 Report

what were your concrete goals for the week?

My concrete goals for the week were to finish major models. My first priority was the mothership.

what goals were you able to accomplish?

I accomplished my goal of the week, and even modeled another item in game - the fuel item.

if the week went differently than you had planned, what were the reasons? note that this happens regularly...I would prefer you to be aggressive in what you want to try accomplish rather than limit yourself to goals you know you'll easily achieve. so answering this question is more of a reflection on the development process and the surprises you encounter, it's not at all an evaluation.

Luckily, this week went as planned, and I caught up with my tasks. I am also suprised that I was able to finish the detailed modeling and materials for the fuel item within a workday. I guess practice makes things easier.

what are your specific goals for the next week?

My specific goals for next week are to playtest and help how I can as we head barrelling towards Demo Day. I feel like there is not much modeling left to do, which is good, but I do still want to help where I can. Initially, I wanted to do more customized sound for the game, but I'm also busy with other classes, so I will just playtest and give feedback next week.

what did you learn this week, if anything (and did you expect to learn it)?

This week I learned that practice makes practice and some tasks easier. I can't say that I am an expert 3D modeler like someone else I know, but I've come a long way in such short time. I am proud of that progress.

what is your individual morale (which might be different from the overall group morale)?
