Over the last few weeks my team and I have been creating a game for the Durham/Chapel-Hill LightRail project. Today it was due. I'm pretty sure that it is not totally complete however, I had to take a leave of absence today for a family emergency so, I am not up to speed. I wish we could have worked as a group better on our communication skills. And I wish we had what every game designer wishes they had more of, time. I wish we had more time so we could make the game better and more detailed.

Full Sail University seems like a great college for someone who is wanting to pursue a career in the arts. I like how they have hands-on experience/learning instead of always being lectured at. But it is not the right college for me, as I am looking for a university with a good law/criminal justice program. I want to pursue a career in law enforcement or the Coast Guard.
So last week we had a guest speaker come in from Full Sail University, which is an arts school. She talked about how the campus was structured so that your classes give you hands-on experience.She talked about the different arts that they have there such as , Video/film, game design, art, and music. Most people have never heard of this University but she explained that we know some of the products that have come from their graduates such as Call of Duty Ghosts. However at the end we made memes on Ipads and ours was the best. "When the 3D model has a brighter future than you". There are two things that turned me away from this college. 1. Is they don't have a law program. 2. Is she tried to tell us that Esports are athletic competitions. First of all it might be "competitive" but there is nothing "Athletic" about sitting in front of a computer.
Summary:
Last week we got grouped into groups to start creating videogames. My group chose to make one on the future LightRail system that would connect Durham and Chapel Hill. I got tasked as being the production manager and audio designer. My group is working at full steam ahead; We just finished getting a main character done for the game and figuring out how we can incorporate him into the game. The LightRail is important because it will help improve travel between counties and help diminish the amount of traffic.The link below is for the actual LightRail system which we are basing our game on/
