We decided with a team of mostly inexperienced coder to keep it simple in terms of the program we used to code. So we decided scratch would be the best option for us. Then I came up with the idea to kick it back retro from the guy who worked at NASA. 8-Bit gaming. It was fun going into paint meticulously painting in one pixel at a time but we were more than up for the challenge. Then we also were short on a computer so i opted out of using mine to go and sit for two solid hours fueled by a ridiculous amount of red bull and monster, and wrote out the whole thing. I also semi-oversaw the guys i left to talk and socialize every now and then. But in the end we all stepped up and worked really hard. And with limited experience created a excellent (in my opinion game/simulator). Witch is supposed to help retrain and train crew members in leadership,problem management, and to fix problems in a stressful situation. It went through several stages and was very elaborate and very simple, but ended just right. We did cut alot of content though. I'm proud of what my team did and accomplished on limited abilities. We ran int alot of problems such as coding issues and spites that needed to be removed and re-done. I learned that mainly the abilities of team-mates is not in their level of skill, but in how hard you can inspire them and get them to work. The next thing i guess would be to finish the game with the total amount of content desired. When our game plan finally got put together we had limited time. So we had to ditch a bunch of content. But all that standing in the way of the content is a few lines of code we didn't get to finish. But again, We still have alot of content and a project that we took are time on to make sure it was adequate and worth putting our names on. I happen to ramble as those whom talk alot do but this was a great project and in victory or defeat im still very proud of what we did.
