Week 2 – William Teurnell
Hi!
I must applaud you for your blog post. It is nicely written and have an interesting topic. Since you started giving the reader a good description of the narratives (in the introduction), I got a detailed overview of the game and what you wanted to achieve.
As a project manager, I can relate to the decision of prioritising other features more, than putting the cutscenes as one of the biggest priorities. As you said, the cutscenes are […]

My first blog comment

Week 1 – Vidar Grönros
There are some question marks about the text. There are a few contradictions in the blog post, which makes a few things confusing. In the beginning of the text, your group didn’t wanted to give the player a feeling of adventure, where the player would be able to control a ship on the open ocean. However, later in the text, you made some changes to your initial idea; to make an infinite ocean in all directions […]

Comment #3 – Gunnlaugur Arnarson

Hello Gunnlaugur,
First of all, great post!
The fact that you give the reader an in-depth understanding of your prior experiences with Scrum makes it a lot easier to follow your train of thought.
Your choice of imagery complements the post nicely as it depicts the generic Scrum process.
You have clearly described the effects that Scrum as a framework has had on your group so far. I do agree that the forced use of a template is sub-optimal for Scrum, especially as Scrum […]

First of all I applause you for your structure and use of language.
In this blog post you come with a lot of new information but you present it in a concise manner that is easy to follow. Not once was the red thread lost and each paragraph has a clear topic. It is a clear timeline on how you did the work with some reasonings on why you did it.
I really like how you […]

Comment #2 – Mateusz Sieradzinski

Hello Matt!
I found the post very enjoyable, the way you take me as a reader through the whole process, step by step makes it very easy to follow your train of thought and understand both what you did to prepare for the presentation and why you did said thing.
When preparing for the same presentation we did the part about negatives last as we had a hard time coming up with things we were truly displeased with, I wholeheartedly agree that […]

Comment #1 – Clément Pirelli

Hello!
Thank you for a good read, the item, being the light, was well-described and the way you explain the actual production process was great!
I like how you’ve reached your goal by trial and error, a great way to follow the teacher’s instructions to “fail fast”.
A couple of things I want to address; Scrum is a framework that we work in, by writing “second sprint of our scrum” it sounds like scrum itself was a delivery or something along those lines. […]

Hello Edvin!
Great to hear you lift some concerns that I’m sure a lot of students have! It was interesting to hear another point of view of the Scrum framework, as well as quite expected that the incremental workflow has been what the group benefitted most from. You have formulated your blog post well with regards to how Scrum has affected you and why. It would have been interesting to hear how you try to deal with the Stand-up meeting issue, […]

Hello Magdalena,
Great job on the blog post! The post was very well structured, showing how the process was iterated upon throughout the sprint. As someone who doesn’t do any art this wasn’t useful at face value, but the general idea of iterations and the full involvement of the group in the decisions you made are of great value to new producers. The idea behind the iterations are also very clear, which helps the reader understand the general purpose. Furthermore all […]

Hello Leo. Thank you for an interesting read.
I like that you explain what scrum is and why it is useful for you and your team. This makes it so that anyone can read what it is you are talking about and also refreshes the already knowledgeable person’s mind. It is also very good that you explain how the sprint retrospective works and bring up the three questions “What things should we stop doing? What should we start doing? What […]

Original post: “SCRUM”
My comment:
Hello Mateusz,
It was surprising to see how you not only bring up the positive aspects, but also introduce new, more dubious perspective on our current framework in Game Development course. A breath of fresh air! Your standpoint is completely understandable for me and I believe you backed it up well by alluding to Gabriel. (Although, I think you should consider elaborating on what exactly he was telling us, project managers, so that people from other minors […]

The third week I commented on Michael Degirmen’s blog, found here:   https://michaeldegirmen.wordpress.com/2018/02/22/scrum-learning-iteratively/
My comment was as follows:
Hey!
As a project management student I can definitely relate to what you have described in the post (sadly). I think you’ve provided an important point of view on the difficulties we’ve all faced during this project and it serves as a good introduction to the topic of the post. It really seems like you have been dealt a rough hand, indeed, but it also appears you have […]

Hey! You’ve written a nice post about an important subject, and apart from some grammatical errors, I believe you have done a good job of explaining what you have done, how you did it as well as why you did it.
