Postmortem:
1) We did not achieve most of the initial goals we had. We underestimated how difficult this would be, and had higher expectations of ourselves that we did not meet. For example, Eleonora made a quality short clip of the alien that we were going to incorporate into the game to throw some narrative in there, but we could not find the time or how to put it in the game.
2) Our goals were not realistic, and this was the problem we had because we put far too much on our plate and could not get it all done. The quality all around was not nearly as good as we all expected, because we thought we would be able to get better at using UE much quicker than we actually did.
3) Went right: We stuck together with each other with little negative conflict. We all performed our repeated jobs, and got a lot of work done when we were together. No one gave up despite our troubles and frustrations.
Went wrong: Over promise, under performed. Not as complete a game as we would have liked. Got frustrated, pushing us away from loving our major.
4a) Using UE takes far longer to use than expected. With this information I will give myself plenty of time when using it
b) I also learned that there is not a truly perfect and reliable way for different people to work on the same game in different locations. With this info I realize that we have to be patient and wait for a truly flawless one.
c) Groups often believe they are on the same page but are not, leading to miscommunications and disagreements. With this info, I plan to communicate a relay and messages, hopefully to create as little misunderstandings and arguments as possible.

Blog Post 12
Week 12: Audio
What was my audio?
I recorded a stack of books falling off my table. This could be used for a number of things in gaming. I recorded it with my phone so the quality is obviously not the best quality that it could be. But it could be used for a number of objects falling. It could be used for a body that was just killed and falls, or anything like that. For the ambiance, I simply recorded for a few seconds while sitting in Slane.
Copyright:
Because I am the one that recorded all of the audio I do not believe that there will be any kinds of copyright issues. They are copyrighted by me because I am the one that recorded them.
Trademark:
Nothing here could be a trademark issue because there are no outside sources used.
Trade Secrets:
The trade secrets of this may be the kinds of books that are used (Hard covered, paperback, etc.) and the right mixture to get the exact sound that they want for whatever it is they are trying to impersonate.
