I didn't complete the tile steps correctly last week I saw this was a necessary part of the game so went back and finished them off before I started the new tutorials.  The first tutorial was really just about pacing the world together creating a map for the player to play on. putting boxes on and things like trees and houses on the map. Below is an image of how my game setting is looking.

How they make the player feel become more attached to the character making them feel like they have control like they’re actually in the game.    The third piece of writing I chose was an article on the importance of stories in human behaviour.
