This is bad because what makes someone a good game developer is there ability to solve programming problems. Tutorials provide a solution to a problem that avoids us having to figure things out ourselves. We might learn a little about a topic, but the real value comes from taking knowledge and applying it to a problem. As developers, there is also the added benefit of figuring out the code we need to write for this problem. This leads me onto a second problem with tutorials. They only show you one way of solving a problem, and their solution might not be the right one for your project.
The next step after realising how bad game development tutorials can be is to identify whether we are using them too much. Instead of figuring out how to implement them ourselves, we look online at more specific tutorials. How to make a 2D RPG mobile game, how to implement x gameplay feature. Perhaps are requests become so specific that we cannot find a tutorial online to help us, so we ask people online for help instead.
Sadly, no one helps us, and in the end our 2D RPG mobile game ceases to exist. If any part of this scenario mentioned sounds familiar, then you might have fallen into the trap of overusing game development tutorials. Many people jump into learning how to make games before they even know how to create basic programs. Which is why you go back to searching for tutorials. Like I said previously I think tutorials are great, especially those that teach you how to use a tool such as a game engine and tutorials that solve problems are also good providing you use them responsibly.
We had to solve the mystery before we were put behind bars as we were the main suspects. We had to assign a team leader sabotaging time! This means the team leader has to be pretty adept at Zoom, sharing screens and enabling fellow teammates to see all of the clues and the puzzle on one screen.
There were different puzzles to solve including crossword, morse code, maze and various decoding techniques. Different pairs of eyes helped to figure the puzzles out, and it was always helpful to have more brains on deck. I thought it was a refreshing brain training exercise that also kept the team working together.
What a great way to bond over a game! Although there were quite a few documents to download and process, our game master guided us patiently and also told us if we were looking at the wrong documents.
The materials used were professionally done and similar to the kind of files shown in Cluedo. I thought the puzzle was moderate in difficulty and accessible for younger ones to solve. We had to determine the murderer and the murder weapon, using the solutions of the puzzle and clues given. Due to the content and motives including that of assassination, jealousy, dishonesty and affairs, I would think the virtual escape room is more suitable for families with older children.
It was also a strain on the eyes to have to focus on the puzzle, especially when looking at different numbers and alphabets. Use the restroom. It is best to make sure everyone has used the restroom in advance of the safety briefing. Playing an escape room with a full bladder is not a comfortable experience. Our escape game rooms are always unlocked for fire safety and your bladder pressure relieving needs.
Eat a good meal and keep hydrated before the game. When we are hungry, our higher functioning parts of our brain are not optimally stimulated and it may slow your progress in finding clues and working in a limited time frame.
Limit alcohol consumption before the game. There is plenty time to imbibe at the post game celebration after your team successfully beats the challenge and escapes the room. How can your team successfully solve this challenge? Follow these escape room game tips and you will be well equipped to escape the room. Before you begin, you will be given a briefing by your game master. The game master is your lifeline and biggest fan while you embark on your mission.
We provide a full safety run down and also provide helpful tips and tricks that are game specific so be sure to make a mental note on what special rules your escape game may have. Each of our escape rooms are highly unique and may have special ways to tell the time or may require a special way to communicate with the game master while in the room.
The game master will offer hints if you are stalled on an aspect of the game room and knowing how to contact them is a key to success.
Our escape games allow unlimited hints with no penalty to use. Listening is a major part in effective communication skills. That is why escape rooms make for a great team building exercise. Friends and family can also benefit from upping their listening game. Escape rooms are weird. Most hands on forms of entertainment including theme parks and museums have engrained in us one simple rule: Don't touch anything. At least don't touch things that are not obviously built to be touched and interacted with.
These interactive elements are usually designed to pull our attention and sign posted on how to use them. Escape rooms are built around the principal that everything is built to be touched and everyone is encourages to explore. The games are built to be interacted with in ways that may not be instantly obvious. The sink in the corner of the room has a tap that does not work and the drain stop is stuck open. Looking down the drain hole, you can see something shiny and reflective.
In most entertainment establishments this may warrant a call to facilities but in an escape room, this is a time to play amateur plumber. Investigating the pipe below the sink, you find that the pipe can be disconnected and the shiny object can be retrieved.
You have just found the key to the locker you have been looking for for 10 minutes Huzzah!
