This week was mostly spent on preparing for Halves. We had our halves on Wednesday, 23rd October. Preparing for our halves presentation wasn’t just about preparing a presentation. It helped the team to reflect back on our vision, and how we are able to come close to it day by day. It made us think about what we have been doing as a team and the motive behind all our actions. The motive being encouraging our users to explore and know about the culture and art and places in Pittsburgh.

We got some really good feedback from the faculty for our halves presentation, some of it was orientated around having our game heavily dependent on the content instead of the tool we have been creating. Some of it is concentrated on small features like, the badges being a bit confusing, not quoting the applications we researched. For the presentation most of the faculty was pretty happy with the way we presented and how the team carried themselves during the presentation.

On Friday, we discussed the halves feedback with Eben, our client and thought about the next steps. For Next week, we need to discuss the feedback with our advisors and start working towards improving our app based on the feedback.
