Spring 2017 Kristen Patterson Update Week 8

If you were to redo the project from Fall term, what would you tell yourself?

I believe one of the biggest issues my team faced was that we got caught up in some of the more non-essential parts of the project and we didn't focus on completing the project before working on stretch goals and interesting mechanics.

What's the biggest skill you've learned?

The biggest skill I have learned during this process is how to be able to talk about a project on multiple different levels of complexity.

What skills do you see yourself using in the future?

The skills I have learned on how to explain my project and how to properly work in a team and manage my time appropriately.

What did you like about the project, and what did you not?

I liked the concept and the coding of the project. It just felt like the schedule was catered more towards larger and more complex projects and I would have like to have more time focusing on development rather than extraneous planning.

What did you learn from your teammates?

My teammates taught me a lot of technical skills that they were used to using and I believe I also helped them with it as well.

If you were the client for this project, would you be satisfied with the work done?

I believe we provided a good starting point for students to use to supplement their research and learning.

If your project were to be continued next year, what do you think needs to be working on?

The actual artificial intelligence portion of the code would be the focus as our project's main purpose was to supplement the development of that process.

Speak a little about your expo experience.

I spoke with many individuals ranging from industry reps to people who did not really know what a video game was.
