feedback thoughts


Article 1: ‘Silence the Critical voices in your Head’
The voices in your head often float around and around until you feel like you’re going to explode. Telling you over and over again that you’re not good enough or that you’re a failure in everything you do, it happens to us all. Yet, it stops us all from achieving our goals! How do we stop this?
For me personally, the self-doubt and constant fear of being a failure is something I’m familiar with, I deal with it in my college assignments all the time, wondering if it’s good enough or if I’ll be happy with the result.
It can be easier to find a positive, but to listen to that positive is another issue. This article talks about this issue and how to try over come it, it’s hard work but it will get you to the place you want to be. Silencing these voices isn’t an easy task, but with time, hard work and some listening, anything is possible!

Article 2: ‘Why Rejection Hurts So Much’
Rejection itself is one of the biggest feelings we as humans feel on a day to day basis. Whether it be personal lives, social lives or work lives, rejection is the most feared and most relatable feeling. This article explains that scientifically, our brains are wired to think this way, studies showed that rejection itself, in small or large amounts, cause us literal pain. Interesting.

In my own college life, rejection plays a huge part. The fear of being rejected, or receiving negative feedback resulting in the feeling of being rejected from our work. It is an inevitable emotion especially when you are passionate about your work, it is only natural to want praise.


There are a few ways in which we can battle this, according to this article, don’t let yourself be so hard on yourself! Listen to your gut and be proud of the work you do. Allow yourself to be reminded how great you are and that you are valid. Less of the self-criticism and more self-appreciation!

Praise Yourself!

First Playable

Overall, the game i'm creating is coming together nicely. The main aspects of the game are present such as the overall terrain, maze walls and gems (collectable). The finer detailing of the game such as the third person view with my character and the additional effects of the gems are set to be installed. I feel as though i'm making good progress and i'm happy with how my game is looking so far. I'm finding the finer details a bit harder to work on such as the scripting as it is very case sensitive. this is just something I will have to get the hang of and work on as I go!  I admit I was behind schedule with my game construction but nothing I couldn't work on, I know what I am capable of and how I'll progress further. I look forward to the final product of my game!

Introduction to loving film

Film is one of the most magical creations of all time in my opinion. Being transported to a new world, filled with new adventures and new people to meet along the way, it sounds a lot like a book, but it’s the visual aspect of storytelling that gives people that magical feeling. From the way in which a film is shot, location, ideas, hidden messages right down to soundtracks, it makes up a different kind of experience from a book, stimulating multiple senses and engaging the audience with the characters and story line. How many times have you seen a movie and have just been mesmerised? The director making you fall in love with characters, grow to love or hate a character, cry at the sad bits and have happy tears at the good bits? The magic of cinema and film truly connects with your emotions and brings you on a roller-coaster. The reason why I love film so much is because the smallest details are important, the angles of the camera, portraying emotions in a character to aid th...

game brainstorm

Game idea 1: Maze For this game idea, I drew on inspiration from ‘Where’s Wally’, ‘Roll the Ball’ and many others. The idea of getting from one place to another through a series of events is a challenge everyone enjoys. It sets a task and the user wants to complete it before anyone else does as a sense of accomplishment. It would be a simple enough game design and layout with a easy concept, as I feel those games do well with audiences, people enjoy a simple yet addictive game! Which way is out?? https://www.123rf.com/photo_90454303_stock-illustration-maze-game-scheme-square-labyrinth-sample-illustration-.html Game idea 2: Adventure Puzzle  This game will be more of a challenge than the first one, creating more of an environment or world for the viewer to enjoy. The aim of the game would be simple, to collect tokens or ‘treasure’ to reach the end goal. The inspiration of this game relates back to one of my first blog posts about my favourite game, Temple Run. With a...
