Time passes, as you knew it would, and the teams are deep into the paper prototyping process. There are paper files and colored markers everywhere, and a general feeling of excitement is evident. Plans are being revised and refined, characters and scenes devised, buttons and controls, being plotted and sketched.
I am truly excited by some of the concepts that the students have developed. I think several of them are somewhat unique. I hope my young teams of game designers are as thorough in their execution as they are in their development of the concept.
Interim grades for this nine weeks were put out yesterday and the a number of students are upset with the grades they earned for their lack of work upgrading their team wiki pages. The good news for them is those grades are temporary, of course that truth lies with the student. They will be temporary if they want them to be temporary and subsequently, devote more time to maintaining the reporting and recording infrastructure of the Globaloria platform.
As Shakespeare said so succinctly "ay, there's the rub."
