Lost Pigeon Studios developed a puzzle game taking place in two parallel worlds with a narrative that motivates players and provokes thought. They exceeded their goals for puzzles and mechanics but the narrative was not as integrated as hoped. Their visual and sound design exceeded expectations by creating an immersive experience. Development challenges included allocating time properly, producing a large number of art assets, and preventing feature creep. They learned to be more open, flexible with time management, and set more realistic goals.

Cs665 writeup
This document describes a semester project involving rigid body sound synthesis. The project uses modal synthesis in the frequency domain to generate contact sounds based on forces from a rigid body simulation. It utilizes various math libraries like Armadillo for linear algebra and SVDLIBC for sparse matrix decompositions. The simulation models rigid bodies using finite elements, computes their vibration modes, and plays back the resulting sounds using SDL audio. Key aspects covered include matrix formation, material parameters, modal analysis calculations, and audio playback implementation.
Beta releasereport
The beta release of Fenestra added new levels, puzzles, art assets, and visual effects. The team was productive but needs to focus on content generation for the full release. Goals for the final release include cohesive gameplay, puzzles, and story. It will be successful if a player can complete all puzzles by understanding the core mechanics with no bugs. Risks include distraction from content or unsolvable levels, which may require a reset feature. Each team member's tasks for the final release are outlined.
Aws slide share-mockup v2

Gameplay specificationfinal
The game fenestra involves guiding an old man through puzzles by having him travel between two worlds - a dark modern city and a bright outdoor setting - whenever he dies. Players must use objects and layouts in both worlds to reach the exit door of each level. Puzzles may involve choosing where to die, pushing boxes, activating buttons and switches, carrying keys between worlds, and timing deaths with events. The overarching goal is to progress the story of the protagonist by beating levels, with the challenge being to figure out the tasks needed to access each exit.

The project has multiple checkpoints and may aim to detect colors, mouse movement, or sleep apnea depending on progress.
CS 2110 Programming Competition Entry Readme
The document describes the authors' entry for the 2009 CS 2110 coding competition. Their goal was to emphasize performance while guaranteeing accurate results. They implemented caching, used Graphviz to generate phylogenomic graphs, developed a mirror index algorithm to find the best root animal, added multithreading to parallelize tasks, implemented Prim's algorithm using a Fibonacci heap, and thoroughly tested their work. While some ambitious ideas like 3D visualization were not completed, they were overall pleased with their successful project.

Game Designer's Journey
Andrii Dotsenko shares his experience as a game designer at Ubisoft Kiev. He worked on games like Far Cry 4. Game design involves imagining rules and mechanics to create fun experiences for players. It takes time and failed prototypes to develop this skill. Designers must learn to communicate ideas clearly and listen to feedback from teammates with different perspectives. While ideas are important, the real work is in interactive prototyping to prove a concept.
Gamification in eLearning - DevLearn 11
Using game mechanics like goals, feedback, and rewards can increase engagement in eLearning. Goals should directly support learning objectives.

Establishing a creative vision involves thinking of what you want for your audience and inspiring your team with a clear target. It is a process that focuses creative effort through defining a mandate, meaning, and player experience. This top-down process helps direct execution and provides a rationale for evaluation. While analysis takes time, communication is needed to avoid misinterpretations and engage the team. Both a top-down creative vision and bottom-up input from specialists are important to support creativity and team dynamics.

BiowareDesignDoc.ppt
The document provides guidance on how to write effective game design documents. It discusses the goals of good design documentation, why it is often rare, and rules for writing it. Some key points:
- Good documentation captures design consensus, aids in scheduling, and gives visibility to future dependencies and conflicts.
- Designers tend to overdesign complex systems and documentation is rarely kept up to date as the project progresses.
- Documents should be short, prioritize the design in phases, illustrate concepts, avoid telling others how to do their jobs, and use user stories to describe features.
- The target audience is usually programmers, so the documentation should serve their needs for building the game.
Workshop: Innovation Games
The document outlines various brainstorming games that can be used to build innovative features and products, including affinity mapping, feature brainstorming, envisioning future success, imagining worst case scenarios, and empathy mapping.

Concept documentfinal
Fenestra is a 2D puzzle platformer that uses death as a gameplay mechanic. Players control an old man who awakens in two parallel worlds and must solve physics puzzles by manipulating his environment and finding ways to die in order to overcome obstacles and progress between the worlds. The game explores themes of mortality and permanence through its mature narrative and challenging puzzles that require reasoning through multiple realities to unlock doors and progress through each level using items and switches that persist across worlds.
Beta presentation
The document provides an introduction and instructions for a puzzle game where players guide an old man through two worlds as he journeys through his memories to find meaning in his troubled past. Players must use the man's ability to travel between worlds whenever he dies to solve puzzles spanning both worlds, enter doors to progress to new levels, and approach memory markers to uncover scenes from his life. The goal is to discover the truth behind the man's mysterious past.

Ece4760 progess report1
1. The document describes the progress made on building an analog amplification circuit with a gain of 6,400 to amplify electroencephalography (EEG) signals as part of a brain-computer interface project.
2. Challenges faced include a damaged FTDI chip on their target board and not utilizing the full dynamic range of the analog-to-digital converter due to the biased input signal.
3. Future plans are to add circuitry to scale and bias the signal, develop the brain-computer interface to detect event-related potentials and allow selection of items, and potentially create a neurofeedback device if time does not allow finishing the brain-computer interface.
Ece lab5 proposal
The document proposes creating a playable Craps game using an MSP430 microcontroller board. LEDs arranged in dice shapes will display dice rolls, and the microcontroller will act as the dice roller. A pseudo-random number generator using the on-chip temperature sensor will determine dice values. Components needed include LEDs in various colors and resistors to limit current. Optional additions could include audio feedback via a piezo speaker or an LED to indicate the game's current phase.
