INTRODUCTION

We have reached Phase 4! We now have 1 and a half weeks left of our project and until our hand-in day. The next week or so will be spent on final touches in preparation for hand-in, ensuring we have everything complete to achieve a successful outcome. We should be tying up loose ends, making sure our promotional material and marketing is up to date and preparing our own documentation for hand-in.

UPDATED TIMELINE:

OUR PLAN:

WHERE DO WE BEGIN?

Game Presentation

On the 17th May, we will be presenting Getaway to the class to showcase our game and how it has developed overtime. I have already made the presentation, all that is left to do is plan a script and present!

Final Touches

We should be spending these next few weeks on final touches to ensure we hand-in a successfully functioning experience as desired. This will involve making sure all of our links work and having our marketing material produced and ready. This includes our documentary, trailer and gameplay demo.
