Throw in the Towel (I’m done until game testing feedback)

If you have completed the alpha of your game and do not plan to continue developing, revising and generally working on your Cawd final game project until after game testing, you will need to continue working on a project independently. This may be:

Your How To for English

A CAWD Knowledge Exchange – where you take your favorite topic, build a lesson and plan to teach us how to do it. You become the teacher and we build, learn, practice with you. We can schedule a day to present next week.

CAWD Project Revision – you take a project from the year that you’d like to improve, add on, revise or just overall go “further”. You’ll share your “mod” with us next week

Game Publishing for Testing…

Before you prepare your Alpha for publishing…

1. Create a folder in your Unity Directory – Name it Builds
2. Choose that folder when exporting for a Build
3. Name your Alpha – BohmannBrickBreaker_Alpha.exe (for example)
4. Test to see that the screen resolution and size is ok
5. Drop your .exe file in the Cawd Game Studio Folder in Public Folders

11:40am Game Testing – Visitors from CAWD

We have visitors today from CAWD1. The students will be the incoming class for CAWD2. Your task is simple. Show them your game / what you have been working on for your game (if your a team).

These students have never seen Unity nor do they know anything about C# programming. Give them a 3 minute overview of your project. Don’t sweat it, you are in dev mode. They are interested to learn what you have been making/coding. We’ll rotate every 3 minutes.

During your 3 minutes, have them test your game and have your Google Form up and ready to go for feedback.
