The Process of Making a Game

At the first day of this week and term, we have continued on the process of making our games. In which we are now testing to see how the rules will work out when we are playing our own game. We have been paired with another team and played their game "vice versa" with only looking at the rules that have been made by the other team. It was a terrific time and we have gotten feedback on what we could improve in our game; most of it has been great, the only problem being is that the number of people that should be playing our game should be minimized. However, there was not really a major problem in our game that any of the team can think of; It has been in all quite enjoyable and exciting seeing and observing how our games get to piece together.

Rules
Mechanics of the game:



You may pass the ball by kicking the ball to your teammates, or you pass the ball like how you normally pass the ball in basketball and netball.



However, you can only score by kicking the ball into the goal post or by throwing.



The balls always start in the middle of the court, which is half court.



You are not allowed to hit other players during the game, that means no pushing, no tackling, no kicking the opponents, otherwise, if this does happen, the player who did the “foul” will be taken out of the game until the end of the round.



The goals are placed in each of the corners.



If one team gets the ball out, same rules applied which will be settled by a jumble. That those teams cannot participate in.



No boundaries.



After the ball have been scored/have been past the goal a point is given to the team who has struck it to any of the goals beside from their own; then that ball will not be used until the second ball has passed a goal and in which case the game will start again with the 2 balls in the middle.



You cannot hold the ball with two hands simultaneously, you can dribble the ball or dribble it with your feet to the goal in which you may kick or throw it to the goal. You may not also throw or kick the ball above the goalie’s head.





We absolutely love the game that they made"Obstacle Ball", the rules were quite clear, yet there was a slight problem about a small part in their game which was pretty easy to fix with only a couple of words that could be added in one of their rules. It was about how and what direction we were supposed to move in.
