Today was the first day of 3D Game Development.

First we opened up Unity to try out a demo game, then we played board games so we could discuss the objectives and mechanics. My group played Sorry!, but I unfortunately was not the victor.  Still, it was fun to play with others and it was a great learning experience.

After creating our blogs we went back to Unity and began to learn about small things such as how to move around the map (zoom in/out, move around, selecting objects, moving between objects, etc).

We also worked on our first animating tutorial: Roll-a-Ball. At the end of class I have just started the tutorial on how to make the ball move.

The homework assignment involves creating my own tabletop game. I think I want to make some sort of card game.
