For the final week of class we discussed what our final game was going to be and we had to come up with a pitch for it. Nothing too big, just a two minute elevator pitch about what our game was about to our classmates.  My pitch was “ This is a very relatable game that a lot of people can resonate with during this time. A great way to pass the time as you wait for news on what is going to happen next with the pandemic and the rest of this horrible year. And this is a game to bring some laughter in your day. It is a twine based story game where you can pick and choose how to spend the day. There is no real object, it is just something to take your mind off of things and make you smile”. We learned that pitching a game is an important process for developing a game, because you want to market your game as good as you can so people will want to buy it and play it, you have to pitch your game to publishers so they can sell your game. If students are trying to continue making games and pursue a career in this industry it is good practice to start pitching games. On a side note I would just like to say how much I have enjoyed this class and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to meet so many wonderful people in person, and be able to bond and share so many great conversations about something we all have a common love and respect for.
