Retrospective

What I learned

  • Change doesn't mean the end of the world. In some situations, changing early will be the best solution.

What Went Wrong

  • Because of Covid-19, we started at the online rather than face to face. This caused the communication very expensive and also resulted to a low morale through months.
  • At the beginning of the game, we struggled the convey to the player. Therefore, we changed a lot from the art style to the game mechanic. This caused some old codes became a mess.

What Went Well

  • Solid interactable object base class. This helped me a lot, due to the start of this game, our game change frequently. But no matter how big change is, we always kept a way for modification.
