Yellow Lab B - Final Blog April 15th 2010

So this week in lab, all the team really came together and got things in order. The design transfer package along with the poster and the prototype were all completed on time while still allowing time for improvements. Warren and Arthur took care of the presentation, while Felix and Abe worked at compiling all the games. Kelly helped compile the transfer package and the rest of the lab members worked hard at completing their final reports.

As far as the open house, the overall project really came together. The presenters were well prepared and in formal attire. As for the poster, we kept it simple and with only minimal data. The lab felt that since the drawing lecture professor (Dr. Macdonald) will be marking it, he'd really appreciate less writing and more images. So our poster was well thought out. Secondly, the posters and the design transfer manuals were printed at Staples so that they were of good quality. Kira took care of these out of class time jobs, with funding from all teams.

As all the PM members can agree, the entire Mustard Seed Project went fantastic. The presenters thought that the presentations were long, and they wished that more people would have contributed. Although, only having two people allowed for better organization. The presenters said that there was twelve Mustard Seed representatives there and they felt that the presentation was rushed based on the fact that there was so many projects to see within the two hour period. When the coach came around they had suggestions regarding further brainstorming of the integration of all the mini games.

If we were to have more time and or if we could redo this project there are a few things we would do differently. As a lab, the overall theme could have been a little bit more integrated. Also, when compiling all the games into a single game, it would have been better to have a room where a character can walk around and pick specific games rather than just a button or choose it. If time allowed, we would have liked to implement the board game idea.

Thanks to all the professors for the great semester. Enjoy the spring and summer.
