Week 4 : tarde estoy...

It was an exhausting morning, short sleep and was packed ha ha ha. its all a joke, aint it. well. I slept a little longer and got late to class by 20 min. Well the class had already began and I was late. Anyways, I got in mid-presentation done by someone whos name I fail to remember or maybe I cant be blamed because it could have been a Chicano or an Arab. well, well, I have been watching all their presentations and all of them looks great, hopefully, I cant rightly judge coz most of them were film project, all I can tell is many have good visual concepts which I can appreciate.

Well speaking of the past as of now, our team managed to do one of the most practical and sensible things to do which is to play some of the best games in the market resembling both of our potential ideas. One of which is Over Cook 2 which is cooking game were the player gets orders form the customers and the player should cook the food and deliver to the customer before the time runs out.

We also managed to get our hands on an escape room game named 'Mad Experiment'. which was a decent game with a decent experience to get an understanding of what an Escape Room game could be. Three of us guys played it and manage to solve the first section with 35 min.

It was a lot fun and coning to why we spend our time playing it. well we wanted to know what is the minimum standard we need to achieve and what are the factors these games uses to create intrigue or the hook of the product. So that we can make an educated guess of which one should we go for for our final project. so we decided to make an escape room game were one of the player is a ghost and tries to lock up the other players in the house before it time runs out.
