Week 1

What tasks did I work on / complete?

Worked with team members to decide on what use case we are going to pick as our team project. Talked about the various platforms - Green Foot and Processing.
Explored the various game ideas like "T-Rex", "Road Fighter", "Sequence", "Flappy Bird". Discusses broadly the use cases of each.
Finalized the T-Rex Game.
Brainstormed with team members for the user stories and game features.
Discussed about the design patterns that would cater the various requirements of the user stories.
Picked up the scrum value of "RESPECT", to ensure that each team member is respected for the efforts that they put into the project.
Explored the Green Foot tool.
As a part of creating the world, figured out how to add GIFs. Added the T-Rex dinosaur to the world.

What am I planning to work on next?

Setting up the composite pattern for the objects to be added to the world.

What tasks are blocked waiting on another team member or any blockers I faced?

For the first week, there was no blocked tasks on anyone.
I faced a challenge on making the GIF work. Turns out that using the GIFImage class of greenfoot for a GIF, the transparent running GIF was getting overlapped and the dinosaur looked as if it had many legs. To overcome this, then I split the GIF to its individual frames and loaded the images to give the feeling of a GIF.
