An Introduction

Hi, My name is Peter and I have created this blog as an assessment task for a subject I am currently studying called Scripting for Game Developers as part of my Bachelor of Game Development. As the title of the subject I am currently studying suggests, I am learning to script code for video games which I believe will be extremely beneficial for myself due to my current lack of scripting knowledge and hopefully beneficial for the industry as I hope to erase some of the negative attitude conveyed toward it through the creation of my video games. This blog will outline my progression as a game developer, explain my scripting goals and hopefully acquire feedback and perhaps exchange information with other individuals in the industry. For this week's tutorial we learned some basic movement and camera scripts for a 3rd Person video game which I wish to improve upon by adapting those scripts to different genres such as 2D Platformers and first person shooters. I would like to achieve these goals so that I will be able to open myself to different possibilities and create enjoyable prototypes for different genres that may eventually become fully fledged video games. Learning the movement and camera scripts for different genres will assist in creating the most important part of a video game: the controls which will set the base for my wild imagination to build upon and also slightly improve my value as a  team member in the industry. Thank you for reading and please leave a comment on any thoughts you may have.
