Team Meeting - 29/01/14

In the meeting we decided to merge the levels together to make it 1 complete level that transition into each other.

During this we also discussed how we can improve industrial level into a playable level; we discussed the following ideas:

• Moving lights in severs
• barrage of boulders to block the path of the player where the player must move them to progress further.
• Movable platforms for the bridge
• Puzzles in the factory to claim a gem; false boxes needed to make a platform or a simple floor puzzle where the right combination is needed to run the conveyor belt.
• Bending factory's exhaust thingy.

Additional Assets for Levels:

Woods:
Flowers
Petals
Leafs
River Stream

Farm:
Scarecrow
Cornfields
Sunflower
Well

Industrial Level & Level [UPDATE]

Industrial Level:

The poly count of the Industrial Level has been reduced from 18,000 to 16,000 polys. I have deleted the faces of the buildings and assets which are not seen by the game's camera view.

Street Light Re-Vamp:

Re made the street light in a lower poly count compared to the original one I made previously; The street light is more realistic form to an actual street light found in a city.

Unity Coding File Update [Emma]

Currently, the main unity file consists of several scenes, most of which for testing, the rest are main files. The current two above are woods and farm (which will be updated again in the week with the latest version with the newest models). 

Firstly, I've managed to add to start adding some textures to farm, and with the final assets, Farm should be fully textured by the end of the week. The style has been finally set, and will match with some of the final lighting adjustments and changes.

Most of the textures are reusable too, so we can change the colours of them and move them to fit with other levels, making it easier and quicker, allowing us to pick 

There are several pieces of new code, and some changes to the game to add a bit more of a puzzle to it. Some of the worries have been dimming down the lighting for the dark world, as well as swapping textures, I've managed to achieve this with the timer. On top, we've added a working timer, and gem collection which adds time to the counter.

After a testing and discussions, I've added some extra features to the game. For example, there is a friendly light companion through the game, which follows the mouse. It helps to illuminate the way when it's dark, so the player can spot the gem, and I've added another code to it, so it can pick up items and help the player progress, so for some areas, the player will have to find something and grab it with the mouse to help them progress.

Our Character controller has also been fixed, and they now can climb up ladders, there was an error and he couldn't climb up, nearly all the codes are in place, besides the character animations and crawling and jumping, which we need the character animated for.
