Sorry couldnt make it for today but did try to. My car however had other plans and decided that me sitting on the hard shoulder of the M4 was to be a lot more interesting as i had no credit to call anyone or let you guys know, so sorry 'bout that, will be there next week promise.

Could someone post details of todays team meeting for me to look at please? Smile

There was no lecture so u didnt miss anything.

Meeting wise, it was somewhat informal but we managed to agree the following:
ATTENDED BY: Richy, Alun, Tony and Jonathan.

- Intro Theme to last 15 seconds
-- animation piece containing a band of imps playing instruments (Organ, Accordian, Double Bass and Drums) on the back of a pick up truck driving towards the mansion.
- Logon screen at the front gates (Animation plays for new users only)
- Featured Game will be for the Maths section
-- A Kitchen Setting with a Witch character [I will draw one if need be]
-- A question appears on the board (randomly generated) for either addition, subtraction or multiplication.
--- Player types in answer on a chalk board [need an interface design]
--- Witch puts items into the broth.
--- If answer right = Witch tastes the broth which she declares as good
--- If answer wrong = Broth bursts into flames.

We will display renders of the English and Science Games as these wont be built for the interactive demo allowing more time to be spent developing the working items.

Conclusion:
Tony and Alun - Develop [Theme Track (15 second), Sub-Track(Loop), Kitchen Music(Loop), Water Drips, Swooping Wing Noise, Wind and Bang for Door, Spider Scuttle, Bat Squeaks, Footsteps]
Barry and Luc - Design Kitchen Layout for [Black Board, Broth, User's Board, Witch Standing Postion near Broth, Kitchen Layout]
Jonathan - Assist with practical layout
Greg - Design/Model kitchen items [Pots and Pans etc.]
Paul - Assist with texturing items (I'd like a true gritty and wacky feel) and layout
Laura - Build rig for imp (willing to discuss specifics)
Richy - Build Imp, Design Witch, Build Truck
Simon and Peter - Concentrate on Menu framework before working out the game.

^^ needs to have some kinda start made by next tuesday. The global tasks thread will be updated.
