Salutations, my name is Sean Alexander Kaiulani Chun and today I am going to share with you my experience in progressing through the GameDevHQ- 2D Development Course. First, I’m going to share with you a quick video on the progress I made last night up to the Challenge User Input module within the Create The Player section of the GameDevHQ- 2d Development course . Second, I am going to share about what I did to upgrade to screen recordings which enabled me to create these Vlogs for my medium posts via YouTube. Lastly, I am going to share a video on the progress I made after learning the Create The Player section of the GameDevHQ- 2d Development course.

Now, here is a quick video on the Challenge User Input module within the Create The Player section of the GameDevHQ- 2d Development course:

(In my opinion, that was not so bad for my first Screen Recording/Vlog and if I sound tired it is cause I am. )

Now that I have shared with you my first video on my progress in the GameDevHQ- 2d Development course, I will share with you what I did to upgrade to screen recordings which enabled me to create these Vlogs.

After reading a couple of my teammates Medium posts I noticed right away that they were demonstrating their progress through screen recordings they posted on YouTube. I wanted to do the same so first thing this morning I watched a couple YouTube Videos by Kevin Stratvert on how to create screen recordings. In my previous blogs I mentioned how I went from not having an adequate computer to begin the GameDevHQ Internship to having a decent PC which has enabled me to start my course work. In the first video I was instructed use [windows key + G] which discovered pulls up an XBOX bar that allows you to do screen recordings, but my PC lacks to hardware requirements to do so. Next, I started watching another video by Kevin Stratvert in which he talks about Open Broadcaster Software. OBS is a free program that I downloaded to start creating my YouTube Channel for Vlogs to post on Medium throughout the rest of my GameDevHQ Internship.

Lastly, I am going to share a video on the progress I made after learning the Create The Player section of the GameDevHQ- 2d Development course:

(I am liking OBS)

Now that I have shared with you my video on the progress I made so far in the GameDevHQ- 2d Development course, I will now be returning to more course work in the Shooting section of the GameDevHQ- 2d Development course. Although I have a long way to go to become a Game Developer and Software Engineer, I will get there slowly, but surly.

Thank you.
