I was assigned a mechanic role and on the game Lament even though I didn’t apply for it. This may have been because I took too long to fill out the form.
I didn’t like this at first and asked my team about it. They suggested to speak to the course leaders. From there I asked if it was okay for me to do my mechanic role and something else ontop of that.
I chose to also undertake the role of UI/UX design as that was a role we needed but didn’t have someone for. This allowed me to still have an art role, which was the role I applied for originally, whilst also including the mechanic role I was assigned.
The Lament GDD is something we need to understand before we can begin production. I did this by creating a condensed version of the GDD for me and the others to refer back to. I referred back to it throughout my posts.
