1. Group 3 – Karo Progress Wendy Dominik Job Janita Erik

2. Progress since last week Improving the engine Winning animation Waiting animation Board designations Installer Settings + Serialization

3. Demo Karo

4. Problems during development Exception when AI wanted to move a tile No knowledge of 3D modeling Improving of Alpha-Beta and Minimax Generating movable tiles and moves Coming up with the right evaluation function

5. Things done by Erik & Wendy First random, minimax and alpha beta Creating 2D GUI Evaluation function Menu structure of 3D game Options and settings Rotation of camera Centering (with animation) and zooming world Connecting with engine, testing connection AI vs. AI Numbers and letters next to the board First prototype of selecting pieces and tiles Extending selection method Undo selection with right mouse button Middle mouse button rotation, couldn’t test Debug information

6. Things done by Dominik Engine: first function drafts UI connector check for winning board state algorithms: minmax & alfabeta transposition table implementation of transposition table testing of the algorithms Xna: sounds testing

7. Things done by Job KARO Engine Planning Design & Architecture Move Generation AlphaBeta, Minimax Transposition Table KARO Gui Design & Architecture BoardManager, BoardElement, Piece, Tile Human vs AI implementation Undo Move Simple animations for pieces and tiles Winning animation

8. Things done by Janita XNA Winning animation Waiting animation Human vs AI ( placing pieces & moving tiles & moving pieces ) BoardManager, Piece, BoardElement & Tiles implementation Class diagram Move animation Karo Engine Move generation Move validation Design class diagram New alpha-beta and minimax

9. Demo 2D scrolling game

10. Problems during development PNG rendering Transparency Using or own images and implementing these Cleaning up Level transitions

11. Things done by Erik Transparent drawing and improve it Tile structure Tile drawing Parallax scrolling Cloud surface Sounds

12. Things done by Wendy Game story & game architecture MessageQueue Plan of attack ClassDiagram Level structure Next level Menu New game Go to next level MisterFrost/ Leafeye

13. Things done by Dominik Sounds Module Physics optimization into module Slopes - surfaces + changes to physics Character movement on slopes Gadgets in Forest level Character walking on ice Sounds during some events Testing + minor changes

14. Things done by Job Game Story Plan of Attack Planning Design & Architecture Character, CharacterView & CharacterState Surfaces Physics Gadgets Enemies Tiles Snowlevel implementation Level transitions Game Over screen, Level Intro’s

15. Things done by Janita Design & game architecture Research for.PNG rendering Plan of attack Design the game ( character image, level design ) Implementing enemies Gadget design and implementation Character and character view + Character States design Improved code with code standard Multiple levels Menu screen and intro screens design and implementation Implementing forest level
