Week 4

Week 4 Progress report.

As of right now we viewed everyone's work, with the exception of Justins, and reiterated that we need all animations done by Thursday.
We looked at the work that Obasi has been doing to the game mechanics itself. And agreed that the player should buy mowers, pricing should increase the more they purchase it.

We talked about how to get the sprites saved out in photoshop, and about adding sprites to a separate  sprite sheet, and linking the animations to flow like they would when animated.

We looked at the environment Tika has done, and gave a critique as to how to do the technical side of things which involves looping, not having a monument but rather multiple buildings/areas that are different enough that they wont look similar when looped.

We observed the character breakdowns that Akilah has done for some of the humans and zombies and liked how everything was going thus far, we just need them animated now.

We discussed with Andrea as to keeping consistency, and refining the look of the characters. We also had a bit a a notion that the deadline is fast approaching. And that some of the attacks shouldnt be ranged, but rather a close combat attack.

We witnessed some of the sprites that Logan has done for the power ups, and asked to add a bit more frames from the speed boost, and adding a squash for the springs.

AGAIN: WE NEED ALL ANIMATIONS DONE BY THURSDAY! if the animations or files are not done by Thursday, we cannot incorporate it into the midterm game.
