Recommendation – Trever

It is not often that you find a young teenager who is as talented as Trever when it comes to game design. Trever is a student of a game design class at Capital High School. Trever takes on multiple roles in game design, such as art, sound design, and all the coding for that, which is outstandingly impressive for a young teen. With his pitch, he always leaves everyone excited about his work. Any game company would be lucky to have Trever as an employee.

Session 4 Production Project

Summary

My goal as a coder was to make some of the code for the game, the other coder would do the other stuff. I created a timer that counts down and once it hits zero, it takes you to a game over screen. I also made some of the main menu, as well as the credits menus with Charles’ help.

21st Century Skills

Creativity

I showed creativity because I had created a lot of really nice menus and gameplay features such as the timer for the game.

Communication

Our teams communication was pretty good. My partners told me what pieces of code to work on. I had also communicated with the other coder, the artist, and a little with the sound designer.

Responsibility

I showed responsibility because I finished all my code on time. I had worked on the menus and the timer, and I got all my work done. We would also build and save our code every day.

I learned a lot about UI and menu creation.

I learned a lot about using the Unity engine.

Responsibility

I showed responsibility because I finished all my code on time. We had problems with things breaking, I pushed right through it and got the code all working. We would also build and save our code everyday.
