1. Game screenshots:

Following is a screenshot of the Game. I named the Game as “Double trouble Game”

2. Projects that needed to add a reference to the Graphics project:

I found the following projects That needed to add a reference to Graphics project.

• Application
• ShaderBuilder
• ExampleGame
• MyGame

I got “ShaderBuilder” which was having graphics code mentioned but was not needed Graphics as a reference because it was not using any functions and rather just using the enum types from Graphics.

3. Expectations and what I hope to learn from the class

I am going to discuss this topic from the first lecture perspective. I was kind of excited by hearing that we are going to use graphics in this class, but the lecture soon turned that excitement down when I heard that graphics are just a way that we are going to use to develop our interfaces and systems.

I am hoping to learn more about creating systems and interfaces that a user on high level can use easily. I don't remember much from the first lecture but I want to learn to be able to create a UI interface with different widgets that can be used by gameplay programmers. Also want to improve my C

 

4. What I learned so far and the Point of the assignment

From the first assignment I have learned the following things

• The three examples that were provided by you(Solution setup, Platform specific code and Static library) taught me a lot of things.
• I figured out that I shouldn’t have blamed the visual studio last semester for getting linking errors. This assignment made me find out the actual cause, than just applying delete and redo method. 
• I like the write up part because I love to write and present what I work on.

Speaking of that, it might not make more sense considering the current write up because it is not the way I wanted to write. I am rushing up due to work on our project prototype and writing this after midnight.
