Presentation

So, unfortunately I was not present last week because I was sick for the whole week. When I came back for the group meeting it turned out the whole project was changed. I was suppose to receive emails regarding any changes but I never got them. So all my work done before was made redundant.

The group changed the whole theme to Alice in Wonderland, and they did it well. The layout of the puzzle was complex but not too challenging, using the cards as enemies was neat and the placement of the staffs will definitely make for a challenge. The functionality of the 'bird' was new and interesting to say the least.

Because I couldn't really contribute much other than progress, I was left with reading a script in regards to the new 'Bird' visual design. I can't complain, we did win best bird and received a prize for it. Otherwise, I tried to help out as much as possible with the Launcher. We didn't get ours to shoot the furthest but I thought it was still very well made and with a few adjustments would work really well.

I felt I was really lacking in the Teamwork department. Not just cause I was sick, I should have taken more initiative to keep in contact with everyone. The moment communication fails then the whole project falls apart.

The roles we received didn't have much conflict to it, I think most of us just wanted to pick up what the other didn't want. I didn't want to say but I really wanted to work on the birds, I had to many ideas. Which made it all the more upsetting when the changes were made and I couldn't show off my final designs.

I wish I hadn't missed that group meeting. Just that one and everything changed.
