Playing Munchkin

Munchkin card game

The last game that we are playing is Munchkin the card game. my understanding of aesthetics in these card games is getting clearer. I found 4 core aesthetics for this game; fellowship, fantasy, expression and challenge. In fellowship if the player can’t defeat the monster the in front of them, then the player is face with a choice. They can attempt to escaped but will lose some progress if it fails or the player can asked other players to help. Fantasy to be able to be somebody else from the race to class. In expression in each player hand has at least one class or race card in their hand with a few weapon and or armor cards to equip your character. Challenge a singular method of play that creates pleasure from overcoming the obstacles in front of you.

After finishing my level playtesting it out in vassal, which is a great program but hard to use if you don't fully understand the game, I asked the my team to take a look at them. from the feedback I ve got was telling me to do more research and understand the game. A lot of things in my scenarios did not make sense as far as the other rules the was in the rule book. So what I did was go back at different battle reports on youtube as well as watch tutorials on how to play Warhammer and read the rule book. what I learn from the videos is that i do well at understanding things better by someone showing me how to do something rather then reading a book.

Lighting in Unity

Directional lights represent large, distant sources that come from a position outside the range of the game world. In a realistic scene, they can be used to simulate the sun or moon. In an abstract game world, they can be a useful way to add convincing shading to objects without exactly specifying where the light is coming from. When checking an object in the scene view a directional light is often the quickest way to get an impression of how its shading will appear. For such a test, you are generally not interested in where the light is coming from but simply want to see the object look “solid” and look for glitches in the model.An Area Light is defined by a rectangle in space. Light is emitted in all directions, but only from one side of the rectangle. The light falls off over a specified range. Since the lighting calculation is quite processor-intensive, area lights are not available at runtime and can only be baked into lightmaps.
