After some logs here time was getting short since this game was a project for school and had a date limit. It was great to learn more about Unity itself and get more knowledge of how to deal with bugs and overall workflow. The game still has multiple minor bugs that actually couldn't be bothered to fix due to the time pressure, maybe I start doing Frogger clones every year just to see the improvement who knows. Inspired on the game Frogger for the Atari, you'll need to try to get the frog to its home on the other side of the river without getting CRUSHED by cars or FALLING into the depths of the river!

In the middle of my Uni exams was  the Global Game Jam 2020 going from the 29th of January until the 31st of January and the school I was going was a hosting place. I decided to go nevertheless since it would be fun and I had time to study later. It was hella fun, most of my class went and some more people joined us,  people that never worked on a game before. Well, what started as a "One Team, One Class Game" became a "Two Teams of Jammers, One Class and some random people that appeared". I was a Game Designer and Level Designer for the team but also participated in some little pieces for the Art, Programming and even "Marketing" (aka preparing to upload the game while there's an hour left and everyone's way too tired and doing multiple stuff at once in crunch mode). The most fun part was the feeling of learning what makes a good and a bad team, communication. And communication was the break factor of the team, one person didn't communicate...

"My CS Degree won't teach me everything I need to be a Game Developer, I must go all-in." And all-in I went, continued for the second year of my CS Degree but enrolled on a private school on a videogames course to give me the push. This game is the first project I made for the course as I learned the basics of game development on an intuitive engine, Construct 2. I faced a problem while doing this project, time. As it was due for the beginning of the year, before Uni exams but after Uni classes I was both celebrating Christmas and New Year's aswell as taking the break I needed to go head in for the mid-January exams. With all this all I had was about 2 days to make a game from start to finish (and it wasn't even a Game Jam). As I was so stressed I got the motto for the game: "Well life is about everything wanting to kill you." And there it was born a blue square that couldn't even jump but needed to get to a "Orb" needed to learn po...

As I was doing bad on my first year of the CS Degree I decided to learn how to make games since that is what I really want to do in life. I started waking up really early to learn  how to make a simple game in Unity before I needed to go to University to have my classes. Using a tutorial by Brackeys I managed to copy his game and learn the basics of Unity. In this game you play as a little cube in a racetrack and must stay on the track while avoiding crashing against obstacles. There are 3 levels with harder obstacles for each one.
