Green Light!🟢🟢🟢
Shortly after our mid-term presentation we entered coaching with our professors. In the end we left with the positive outcome: Our project was approved with a full “green light”! This means we are ready to enter production and finally start the development we were so eager about.
Project Backlog
Of course we didn’t immediately boot up Unity and started coding. No, we first went into Jira and wrote down all tasks we could think of, that were necessary in our milestones - which we also created as “Epics”. This way we could perfectly assign and schedule our tasks in our team throughout development. Everything has a story point estimation and an automated status workflow. So far we have scheduled 4 sprints in total, each lasting two weeks. The current sprint has a point estimation of 55.
Here’s how we distributed our tasks in the first sprint:
- Aaron will work on the Mixed Reality Setup, getting the basic interaction systems to work such as hand-tracking and room mapping.
- Philip will research the measurements of the theater to then create a block-out model in Blender. Aaron may have some tips and tricks for him when he starts texturing the model in Substance Painter.
- Oscar (me) will research the puppet character personalities. We will need those for writing the dialogue in the plays and in the prompt input when the AI takes over the writing process.
Similar to P3 we will also review the changes we submit in pull-requests. This makes sense as it is the best way for us to ensure quality, even if the person making these changes may not test it themselves at the time. It really feels like we can get something cool done within this next week and we will be sure write all about it.
Christmas Preparations
In other news, the holiday season is upon us. Can you believe it? Christmas is in a week! Oh wow, I’m so happy about this information. It may not be easy for us to post on that day but we will work something out. Expect some themed pictures.
