Week 13 – Finalizing the GDW game and GDW presentations

                For the past week, my group and I have been working very hard on completing our GDW game, Bloody Mary, and preparing for the presentations on Tuesday morning. Our whole team is trying very hard to have everything done by 8am Tuesday, and it could be a long night tonight…

                For most of my time working on our GDW game, I added several zombie models into the second last room, and the only problem was that the pivot point of the model wasn’t the same as the position of the node, so there was plenty of trial and error in order to get it working properly. I had also worked on fixing the rotations for all the doors in our level, so that they rotate properly, and in the proper direction. I also fixed the final door in the grand room that leads to the exit, which requires the player to have all 4 weapons in the game, 2 swords and 2 hammers. After tweaking around with that code, the player can now collect all 4 weapons to open that door properly. Our programmers also worked on this, in order to ensure that the code works for the player to pick up each of the 4 weapons, as well as for the HUD art to appear in the player inventory section of the screen after picking up a weapon. The weapons will also ‘teleport’ to the corresponding knight statue after being picked up by the player.
