did not include pictures of my Atlas because for some reason it broke on my computer and I can&#8217;t access it anymore.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The unity project is also accessible via that google drive link!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I sought out to make a game about a cat who wreaks havoc. I think I have definitely met the art goals that I set for myself. The room feels colorful and populated, and it has many things that the cat could knock over and mess with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its been quite a long journey here, and I&#8217;d say I&#8217;m most proud of how I managed to stay in scope. I still have my original asset list that I made, where I listed every furniture item that would be needed to make the room feel real, and every decoration that I might add to make that room feel lived in. I&#8217;m extremely proud that I achieved both of those goals, and I think that I managed to stay within a scope where I was challenged, but that I could also manage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further, I think another big accomplishment that I achieved in Catastrophe was setting a nice fun tone for the experience. I made a lot of jokes in class and with others about how I wanted the cat to be &#8220;the epitome of both cute and bastard&#8221; and I think that I hit the mark. <br>I set a pretty lofty goal of making a game that felt somewhat cartoony, and yet somewhat realistic. I think that everything from the colors that I chose, to the animations that I made, to the music that the wonderful student in the other class made really came together to form a cohesive and fun tone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During this project, I think I learned a lot about making a goal and actually achieving it. This is my second time taking this class. The first time that I took it, I came up with a project that quickly blew out of my scope. And when things started going wrong, I tried to catch up and cram work in, when I should have decided to dial back my scope instead and make changes. <br>So this time I took the course, I tried really hard to make the scope manageable from the start, and I defined my scope via the need-want-wish model where I could define what I absolutely needed to make the game work, and then I branched out from there. This design would have allowed me to tighten the scope if I needed to within the course. Further, I tried to keep a cooler head in the face of stress. I think the biggest growth that I saw here was in managing the stress of having a big solo project Further, I really grew in my ability to use substance painter, as well as in my rigging abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The posters in the room were not created by me.
