Wikipedia Trail: From Carol Dweck to Aristocracy

Hello and welcome back to my blog. This time we're doing Wikipedia trail, here's the trail:

A picture Of Dweck, taken from Wiki

Staring off with Carol Dweck. I was interested in Dweck because she the creator of the growth mindset ~~and that stupid block yoke~~, I wanted to know more about her. I also wanted to see if she had a doctor degree, she does, because most physiologist have at least masters so I wanted to see how well educated she is.

This led me to Mindset. I was interested in mindset because before this course I didn't know what mindset was, so I wanted to see what are they exactly ? I also was interested to see if mindset ties in other topic such as History or politics.

This led to Elitism. I was interested in this because I wanted to see how this relates to mindset. I also was curious I studied politics for the leaving cert so I was well aware of Elitism and what it can to lead to but I wanted to know what exactly is it ? I also studied Social class so I was interested in how Elitism ties to Social Class.

Finally we reached Aristocracy. I was interested in finding out how Aristocracy was form because I didn't know how it was form. I also wanted to know because I studied Thomas Hobbes and Hobbes' theory is all about Aristocracy.

Introduction to Me, Myself and I

Hello, I'm Sarah and this my introduction post ! Here's bit of information about me: I live in Dublin, in Ireland and I've live there all my life. I mainly listen to Metal, currently I've been listening to Slipknot newest Album 'We are not your Kind' also known as Vol 6.. If you want a taste of Slipknot, here's a link to 'Unsainted' which is the first song (not counting the intro) on their new album. For Hobbies, I usually write, I've been practising writing over the summer and I think I'm getting better, My English has certainly improved. I'm also a Cub Scout Leader, so I go away on trip with the Cubs, Scouts and Ventures. This year I went away to County Claire and Holland with the Scouts. County Claire in June 2019, Taken by Me while hiking with the Cubs. I really like travelling around, especially with my camera, my Nikon D5100 with a standard 18-55mm lens and I since I'm studying photography in college I got put in...

Game Vision Statement

Vision, it's a powerful thing, I should know, I needed glasses and didn't know I needed them, Now I can't live without them. Anyway, that's not what I'm talking, today I'm gonna be talking about my game and how I envision it. First, My Game will be a first person Action-Adventure game with some debatable RPG elements, I say debatable because now of days many games have RPG mechanics but aren't really RPGs, for example is Far cry 5 an RPG because you get new skills and have an inventory ? The game is mostly based off, Terraria so the gameplay is very similar to it, you'll need to collect certain items, build up your strength, get stronger and defeat bosses. The big difference is that my game is going to be in 3D while Terraria is a 2D game, I'm not sure in what way that will effect the gameplay as that can effect a game very badly, for example Mega-man X7 and I'll have to be careful not to fall into that "pit-fall" get it ?

First Playable

Project update time! So this week I've been working hard on the axe side of things, I wanted allow the player to be able to pick up the axe and swing it. However I learnt something that I hope wasn't true but sadly is, You can't reused scripts!! I tried to reused the Axe Swing script from jimmy Vegas and it work, but when I recreated it, it did work ! Unity you picky bastard you. Oh yeah I also made a building too, screen shot taken by Me. I also work on taking the axe out of the wall but had to focus on the ray-casting which was a pain in the ass because I completely forgot about it and had to go back to work on it. Honestly I've spent more then 3 hours working on this and while I'm proud of what I've done so far, I also sad because I really wanted to get to the first playable stage of the game but haven't be able to, Hell I still haven't gotten to the player able to take the damn axe out of the damn wall yet. This screen shot of my game does...
