The document provides an evaluation of the student's FMP project. In the research section, the student discusses how their initial research focused on ghost games but did not help with their final horror/zombie game. For planning, mind maps and mood boards provided ideas but were difficult to choose from. The layout plan did not help the final piece. For time management, the student completes paperwork at home but needs software at home to work on creative aspects outside of college. Peer feedback suggested adding variety to movements, spawn points, and maps, as well as including a HUD and pause option. The student agreed improvements could be made to movements, spawn points, and adding different stages/maps.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

3. Research
• It helped me to find out what kind of a game I was going to try to go for
and how I wanted to create it and set it out and it was helpful how no one
could also screw around with my work and so there were no hindrances to
my work and I was able to give my view on what I wanted the audience
type to be whether they were gamers or just casuals or whether they are
students or adults all this helped me produce my product by giving me a
sort of genre to work with which in the end was a sort of horror action
which involved zombies which derived more from the evil within in genre
but everything else was useless but all of my research was based on ghost
games in the belief that I was having to make a ghost game however I
ended up changing the genre and so almost none of my research was able
to help in my actual project unless it was for the experiments and also it
couldn’t tell me what my audience would like or what my audience would
have been .
4. Planning
• The mind map helps by giving me what I was planning to make my game from and
I had only 4 ideas which were really just games that were already made and would
have just been remakes but it helped me to create my experiment however it was
difficult to create to try and give justice to the games.
• The mood board was a good thing as it gave me plenty of extra ideas of what I
wanted to do but there is a point when there are too many ideas it is too difficult
to choose from and then you end up doing something different but it did help in
the experiments as it all the work I did on it was to support a ghost game but then
I came up with a better horror game.
• The mood board biography was useless unless I wanted to go back to where the
pictures were from but it does tell you where I got the pictures from.
• The style sheet was useful because it took me into further detail of what I wanted
to do by taking existing products such as LA Noire and taking what I liked about
them the darkness of it and tried to incorporate it into my first game but that first
idea didn’t work and so I panicked and created this final piece actually aim for it to
be research for the right game.
• The layout plan didn’t really help my actual final piece however it was all closely
linked to my original idea however I didn’t finish it and was going to be difficult to
animate.
5. Time Management
• No. My time management is still horrible because I do all the work which
is paper work at home and so I can finish all that quickly but when it
comes up to creating the actual piece I can only do work at college for the
creative part and so I believe that I can fix that by getting Photoshop and
Premiere at home, however though I did complete my project on time but
I also think that it definitely could be improved upon with more time such
as I could have made a larger map with more places to go and also make it
so the characters could have moved in all different directions and also add
a hud for how many bullets you have left and also something to indicate
on which level you are and also when you pass the first five levels it takes
you to a different map each time you have passed five levels.
6. Technical Qualities
mine has great music they
are both in game looking like
they are looking on the
battleground from a similar
point of view and all the
zombies and people are
made of blocks.
The differences are that minigore is obviously going to be faster and is
going to have better animations and everything except for the sound
effects but it still will have better design with it giving it a bit of a better
view except for a birds eye view.
7. Aesthetic Qualities
Well it does look good for
me and my design but
compared to an actual game
it looks like nothing it was
creative in places but in
others it could stand too
improve dramatically well
the bit I like the most is the
opening screen and this
picture I would try to
improve the game by adding
a HUD and also adding a
way of moving in other
directions.
It is good because of the music and the design of the
map but the rest I don’t really like except for the sound
effects because the movements could have been much
smoother and there could have been more
movements and I was planning on adding more stages
with more maps a stamina gauge and a health gauge
and I was also going to add a bullet and gun gauge to
make it look better.
8. Audience Appeal
I appealed to the target
audience by adding in horror
and action and a slice of survival
and so I believe that all of those
conform to what I wanted to
give to the target audience and
there wasn’t a questionnaire
that I could refer to and so there
isn’t much else to say except for
if you have the music on loud
enough volume you can
concentrate harder on the piece
and it is much more enjoyable
the action is the run and gun
part the survival is the running
part and the horror part is the
zombie’s and there I believe is a
good start map.
