Story boarding for race car level

As I researched more in to my level design components, i was advised to to create storyboards for my level. The story boarding of the racing track has actually made me realize how my level is going to feel and what will be the short comings that i may face when i create the level. Story boarding also gave me few positive results in my own decisions; one of them being, that a in certain twists and turns in the level, the player can actually see what are the obstacles that he/ she will face. there have been few limitations that i have come to realize as i was story boarding my level and one of them being that there was not enough challenge in one of the shortcuts, which i will have to rectify.

However This has confirmed to me that if this level is created , its going to be quite enjoyable, as one of the core mechanics that i am trying to include is speed. To get the perspective of every shot, I had created mock / gray box level of of the map and used it as reference.

Particles Refrence and Tutorial!!!!!!!!

Hey guys! For this post, I am excited to announce that I have been learning particles in Unreal Engine 4. And i have to say I have learned alot and enjoyed learning particle this far. When i first started learning them, I thought they would be complicated, but the statement prooved to be false and was surperised how easy it was to understand them and apply them. After practicing through the tutorials I have learned all the different types of particles, such as, emitter particle effects, HUD emitter particle effects, Mesh particles, Ribbon particles, animation curve particles. Anyway, continuing the current assignment, i had to do some research on what kind of a particle do I need to work on and how I can apply that to my other collaborative project of the racing level. And the answer to that was kinda obvious. since i wanted to have a sand storm in my level, I decided to peruse the sand storm effect. I looked at few real life references and few game ones....

PONG - Aracade Hits

For my programming class we created PONG with a little bit of twist. We were paired in a team of two . and we assigned ourselves a role of a programmer and the other a role of of effects/ art. I had assumed of the former. My first goal was to make the game of pong look like an old school pong that people can relate to. There fore Black and white was the color scheme that i went with. My main goal was to focus on how effects as the effects would get the players more interested in our game. After creating the color scheme. I wanted to add a bit of the dramatic flare to it, thus i started making particle effects for the tail of the ball and the radial bursts. For the Trail. I applied a material with opeque properties and applies it into the cascade UI required module. Following are the values that i changed. I had also disabled velocity so that the trail would look seamless. And for the radial ...
