- Today is yet another Tumultuous Tuesday. Schedules changed accordingly.

1:10 Monday / Tuesday Modeling Exercise: Power Item to temporarily disable Kill Box
Today we will continue to work building the power item we are going to use for our Vertical Micro Game. We can “collect” this item by touching it, or we can “shoot” it with the tennis ball gun. Whenever we do this we are going to temporarily stop the kill box from moving up vertically.
For my class example of “Greta’s Angry”, I am going to have a small stylized Coal Plant which will be placed around the world. Each time Greta “collects” the item, a 5 second (or so) timer will fire and stop the water.
Create what makes sense for your game world and game theme.
Create 3 renders called “(lastname)VerticalPowerItem_1.png” through “(lastname)VerticalPowerItem_3.png” and upload to your “week_09” folder.
No programming yet.
No kill-box creation yet.
By the end of this 2-day window we are going to have completed:
- The level (last week)
- The power item (this week)
2:00 Dailies
