Product:

This is our game cover. This is supposed to go on the box!

These are the game Directions.

The board game stands. It has a base with sticks attached to the base and the board(like a teepee).

Self-Evaluation:

• What challenges did you encounter when creating your product?

Me and my partner struggled a little bit on a coming out with a game that would work with aprox. 20 people(class size). Something that a teacher her self would be able to handle it herself (by her self). We also had problems on what subject to choose from all the classes me and my partner have.

• How did you cope with these challenges?

To cope with this challenge we got a little of advice from our teacher and we also researched things that could be useful in game designing. Also we went through all the classes we have together and got ideas that were educational and fun

• What went particularly well in creating your product?

 What i think went actually well is the fact that me and my partner had many classes together and we were able to talk about our difficulties in each class and design a game that would help us in that trouble. And time wise we split the work up and compared and fixed things that needed to be fixed!

• If you were to redo the project from the very beginning, what would you do different?

 Well, if i had another chance to redo my project i would tweek my box cover and our moco??? (idont know how you spell that?) I would probably change the game idea a little to where its a little easier t o explain...

• What is something you can take from this project that can aid you after its completion?

There are many things that will aid me after the completion of my project but, It will definatly show and help notice how hard it is to work with a partner idea wise, but how easy it is working together time wise and actually learning more from each other.

reflection over game design

game designing is fun but its a little hard because you have to be thinking about a lot of things like the "what if's"... and those what if's matter so much in your design because you also have to think from other people point of view/ perspective. something you have to watch out when designing a game is that you have to make sure that you are not copying anyone else's idea.

Last Thoughts About Typography

i feel enthusiastic about typography. The type of typography that most interests me is the drawing with typography. Sometimes i do feel that graffiti is a form of typography, but not only is it words but it is also art work.! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

reflection:

-What challenges did you encounter when creating your product?

well, really i didnt have as many problems with this project as i have with other projects. The thing that annoys me is the layers in photoshop. each word was a different layer and then i couldn find it if i wanted to change the size.

-How did you cope with these challenges?

i calmed down a little. but i kind of liked the challenge... i took brakes at time and managed to finish in time this time!

-What went particularly well in creating your product?

The fact that i got my ideas strait and orginized. i knew pefectly what i was going to do, thats why i saved alot of time.

-If you were to redo the project from the very beginning, what would you do different?

if i were to redo the whole project, i would probably check my spelling and change the font because i used the same font for the whole project.

-What is something you can take from this project that can aid you after its completion? this makes me learn that pictures with typography really do have a meaning. to appreciate others who do this types of work because it sure is hard work.

Review about typography !

To me typography is not as challenging as other things we have learned so far. . . i would define typography as creativity because one must be creating while doing a project like this and have imagination to be able to come up with a good image. Typography isn't just a bunch of words, instead, sometimes it haas symbolism and it can mean allot of this to the world around us. I actually do feel very comfortable with this project. I feel like this is another good way of showing good art skills. (unique)
