Dont Escape 3 game analysis

For our game design we are working on creating puzzle game and to  understand how puzzle games work we had to  pick out a puzzle game that resembled close to our idea. The puzzle game that i decided to go for was called Don't escape 3, is a first person puzzle action game and follows the pattern of Mystery House game which was produced by sierra.

The primary mechanics used for moving are the Left mouse button. that is used for the player to move from room to room. Unlocking doors and cracking doors, welding through  locks.The types of puzzles that are present are sequence puzzles, detective puzzle and, combinations etc. The puzzles in this game make the player The narration starts with you  being on a spaceship and there is a countdown for the airlocks to open and you being sucked out. As you quickly disengage airlock as the timer is running down. after which you have to find you way out of the room and noticing the surroundings, the narrative slowly is revealed to you that the crew has been murdered. You have series of logs that tell you what the crew was upto and gives the player an understanding of the past.  I kinda reminds me of  alien isolation of survival and i guess it should since its a suspense thriller game.  The game is completed once you understand who is the culprit is and you have two choices , its either killing them  or escaping.  The main game mechanics hold you collecting things and using them to solve the mystery, and repairing the mechanical doors that open new  rooms to explore.

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 ...
