What is Overwatch? Overwatch is a video game made for console and pc. It takes place in the future after an event known as the"omnic crisis" occurs. The omnic crisis is when the robots (aka omnics) start rebelling against the humans for control. A team of heroes arise, a talented group of misfits who have the skills necessary to battle the omnics, but they are not welcomed by society. The game is primarily PVP but you can play against bots in some of the training modes. The modes include, escort the payload, a game where you have to stay near a moving object to keep it going forward until it reaches its goal, and the opposing team must stop you by killing your teammates to keep them off the point in a set amount of time. Another game mode is the capture points mode, where the teams must either A) capture the point before the other team in order to win, or B) stop the opposing team from capturing both of the points in a set amount of time. This game has become a major eSport and even has a competitive mode that is taken very seriously by players. overall the game has a total of 25 playable characters with more likely to come, the characters are spit into four categories, A) Attack, characters with less health that are quicker and deal more damage, B) Defense, characters that have more health and are better at holding their ground and slowing down the enemies, C) Tank, characters that have a lot of health and are good at defending their own team and clearing spaces, and finally D) Support, where the character specialize in healing their team. It is important to use all of these strategically in order to win. Overall Overwatch is an excellent game that is something I don't think i will stop playing anytime soon.

What is this blog? Well, this blog is primarily about all the stuff we go over in game art and digital design. Most of it will be for a grade so don't expect it to hold the most interesting and lively posts. Occasionally you will get a treat, a special post made only for myself and a portfolio check. These will be the posts any other visitors will want to see. They will include but are not limited to, game reviews, thoughts about game design and related things, and other ideas i may have at the time. This blog will be awesome. Thank you.
What is graphic design? And why is it so important? Well, graphic design is what makes the world interesting. When you are walking down the street, would you stop and notice a poster consisting of only a blank sheet of paper with simple writing on it? probably not, because without graphic design, you wouldn't have the awesome fonts, and cool pictures, and intense logos for the things you interact with each day! In fact, it can all date back to the start of the printing press, which was used to mass produce bibles! Graphic design helps with so many things, and can even be used in other fields, such as photography and marketing.
