Hello hello friends !

today the group had another meeting and on this meeting we did get alot of things done ! :)

here are some of the topics we talked about:
*---------------------------------------*

• Group name
• Group member roles
• about the presentation on thursday
• Checklist
• Name of the game
• more about game type
• communication

*--------------------------------------*

 --> group name
 we decided to name the group to " Group Rock Rabbits". basically because we are gonna have a part rock theme music in our game, we first thought about the group name "super Rabbits", however this suggestion was overruled.

--> group member roles
today, group roles were assigned to the members of the team. Gokul and Luo was assigned to the documentation, gokul is also responsible in the graphical editing since he is good in photoshop and also for the sound for the game. Kristoffer, which will be our lead programmer, will handle most of the programming, and he also wants to do some of graphics. Neda and Li has been given the assignment to write a story line of the game.I have been given the  role of project manager, and programming.  Basically every one will be involved in the programming part, when they will be given tasks to create specific classes.

---> about the presentation on thursday
 We talked about the presentation which will be on thursday, and we talked about what we wanted to present and what we need to do for prepare for this presentation. Gokul and Luo were given the assignment to complete a power point presentation until monday.

---> checklist
I talked about the checklist, which i had been thinking about during the past week, this checklist will be a map in basecamp in which every group members attendancy rate will be inputted. through this i will be able to see who is late and who is on time. This checklist will later on be presented in the final report.

---> Story of the game
the story of the game is about a rabbit whose girlfriend was kille by a person, which will be the final boss. This vengeful rabbit wants to revenge his girlfriend who he so much loved, so he sets himself in a quest to find the person who killed his girlfriend, and kill him. That is the basic story of our game, until monday, hopefully we will have a full storyline.

--->Name of the game
The name of the game was set to " The Vengeful Rabbit" .


-->communication
We have basecamp and we decided to use Skype also:
Instead of uploading all the members skype id on the blog ill upload it on basecamp, so it remains personal.

--> tasks for the next meeting :
Gokul and Luo: they will create the powerpoint which will consist of a concept art of the game created by kristoffer. in this powerpoint we will need to have a section for graphics, group member and roles, about the game and so on.

Neda and Li: you need to write the storyline of the game until monday, i have given you the basic story earlier, now you will have to develop this basic story into a continuing story.

Ali: To understand the main class and go through some more tutorials.
Kristoffer: is going to do some more research in overall java game development and work on the main class.


For the next meeting on either monday or Thursday, i will present an idea which perhaps can make our project even more unique compared to other peoples work :) stay tuned !


Peace out....
