Week Four Update

During the fourth week of their build season, DNA continued to work on the Game Design Challenge. As DNA starts to narrow down the game elements that they will use in their game, they have been able to start structuring the elements. This is an important part in the game design process because DNA has been able to poke holes in the design and improve on them. Additionally, DNA has been making sure every element fits with the chosen theme. In the coming weeks, DNA is going to be working on building the game field in Solidworks and working on the other required elements for the Game Design Challenge. 

The awards sub-team has continued to make significant progress on the FIRST Chairman’s Award, and has now gone into the editing phase. DNA hopes to keep up this progress as they continue work on the Game Design and Skills Challenges.
