  Hello! It’s sprint 15 of the Aftershock Simulator project. In this sprint, we had 97 points assigned and 48 completed. More than last time, but to say it’s been a bit of a rough transition is kind of putting it lightly. Later in the sprint, our team had a discussion with our teacher, who is the head of the project. Unlike the previous semester in which there was a student as a designer, our teacher would now take their place in order to avoid this rough transition that we had with future development teams.   One thing I had a bit of difficulty with is that for most of the sprint, I didn’t have access to Github which hampered my ability to understand how the code in the project worked and even how programmers would cre ate new features. Now that I do have access, I am again worried because I’m a sprint behind everyone in understanding the code better and also it’s kind of a mess. Our main UI designer wanted to rehaul the in-game UI, and that’s going to end up being more o...

  Hello! I’m the new producer on the Aftershock Simulator project for the USGS program. The Aftershock Simulator is created with the intention of teaching potential rescue workers how to best save as many lives as possible in the event of an earthquake. As this is a project that’s being continued rather than starting from scratch, I needed to read through the notes that the previous team left over while devising new tasks for the new team. I was a bit worried about not being ready for kickoff, but now that this sprint is over, I think I and the team have almost gotten ourselves familiar with the project and are mostly ready to go. In this sprint, our team was mostly reading through the learning objectives for the game and understanding what was already created. I assigned people new features that might have helped to introduce them into the project, but most of those were not completed just yet. For this sprint, I assigned the team 81 points and 34 of those were completed. That...
