HA2 - Task 10 - Review

I think that I have quite a lot of positive comments about the work I have created. I believe that I have worked to a high standard on all of my tasks as I have kept up to date with my Gantt chart and I have tried to design and create some unique characters and designs in this time. I also think that I have explained things and gone into quite a lot of detail on my tasks that involve more writing and this means that I have involved more information and I have also tried to give examples that relate to the topics I have been talking about using images and general knowledge.

However, I do have a few negative statements that I could mention. Firstly, I believe that I could have detailed my Vector and Pixel art much better as I made the colours and shading very basic as I tried to spec out time very evenly and this resulted in my art being not as good as it could have been if I had used my time a little bit better. If I could do this again, I would have focused more on the pixel task as it was very time consuming and I thin that I rushed it a bit too much and if I aimed to spend more time on it, the I could have produced better looking sprites.

I am pleased with my work I have completed during this task as I look back on all of the work I have recently completed and I have completed all of the tasks in order which progresses into more developed and detailed work. I believe that this is a great order to completed my project as it has allowed me to complete it effectively and efficiently as I have used the Gantt chart to keep up to date with my tasks that will be completed and it has also helped me organised my tasks a lot better. It allowed me to be on time with my deadlines as I tried to complete all of my tasks for each deadline and in my timeline, I left a couple of days unchecked as I planned to use them just to check over everything and to add extra information to all of my work. It has been challenging to complete these tasks to a certain deadline which is not a lot of time but this has allowed me to get used to tasks like this one and this will also help me with other projects that need to be completed for a fast deadline.

I believe that the work I have produced has been presented in a good standard as I have completed all of my work  before the deadline and I have used different techniques to make my work stand out a be more unique. However, Some of my work could be improved in many ways as not as much time was spent on it so it may seem more rushed considering it was completed for the deadline. If I was able to go back to my project and improve it, I would gather more unique ideas and implement them into my work. Work that includes software such as Adobe Illustrator has resulted in a bit of a struggle since the only time that I could use it is when I am in college as I do not obtain it at home which means that I have tried to complete as much of it in class time while computers in places such as the library are occupied for most of the time. This resulted in a rushed outcome and made it so my work came out as a standard that is not as good as it could have been if I had the software.


After looking at my project, all of the tasks that were set and requirements were completed to the deadline and I believe that this means that I can efficiently and effectively balance time whilst keeping to a regular schedule as the plans that I had set out to be completed were finished in a clean and neat style and the outcome has resulted in a good quality piece of work.

HA2 - Task 9 - Pixel Presentation


HA2 - Task 8 - Pixel Production

This is the one of the blood pixel art I have created. I tried to make it look as bloody and gory as possible to add additional effect for my game to make it stand out.

This is another Blood pixel art I have created which is more like a splatter and and I wanted to keep it a dark colour.

This is a honey badger I have made for my game and I tried to create this is a short space of time which left it not being as detailed as it could be and I think it overall looks very nice and would look good in my game.

This is one of my rushed pieces of art that is quite rushed but it looks very interesting and it could make people want to know more about the game or the character itself. 

For my boss, it's going to use its tongue to attack and inflict damage which will make the target freeze for a couple of seconds.

I made this in Photoshop and I tried to make it look rather simple 

This is my character bearing right and I think I made it very simple but I also think that it would fit in my game very well.

This is my character bearing left and I think I made it very simple but I also think that it would fit in my game very well.

This is a turret that I edited and this took me a while to fully create and I think that it came out looking pretty good.

I edited this with photoshop to change its appearance and i think that it looks quite effective with the technique of shading.

This is a powerup I have made which is also simple but I think that it would be quite effective in my game.

This is similar to my power up and I think that it looks pretty good and it would fit in well with my game.

This is the title screen of my game and although that it looks rather simple, I think that the textured background makes it stand out better and it also fits in very well with my game.

This is the lava that will be flown over in the game. I have edited the previous ground and I think that I have gave this a fiery effect that looks very good.

This is a missile I have created that I think looks very nice with the bright purple colours used and this also fits in with the purple colour scheme of my game.

I have made the maggot into a worm which is very simple and I added some basic shading effects.

These are the fur balls that my cat will shoot, I think that these are very unique and fairly random but I think that it would look nice.

This is the blocks that my character fly's over and I just edited and redheaded the previous ones.

This is the shadow that my character will cast when he is flying and I think this will give a very nice effect in game.

This is the character I have designed in my pixel art and I think that it looks very good with the detail and I think that I have created the wings very nicely.

These are the clouds I have edited as I tried to give a a more dark effect as the setting of my game is based in hell.

This is fire I have made into a purple colour to match the colour scheme I think that it looks very good overall.

These are the coin I have made and I think that they look very simple but unique which could make my game look simple.

I have used purple colours to create this and I think that it looks very good and as it would change in the animation.

HA2 - Task 7 - Vector Presentation


This is one of the T shirts I have designed for my Vector production. I have included the hero and the bad guy to resemble my game and I think that I have designed this pretty well as it looks nice and clean. 


This is another shirt I have designed which includes the main character. I think that this looks pretty cool and rather unique.


This is a shirt I have designed using the logo for my game and I think that this is very cool as I have tried to match the shirt with a nice colour and I generally think that this suits my game.


This is a shirt I have made including one of the main bosses. I think that this has a plain and simple effect that stands out and would probably make people want to get involved.
