Interpretive
I think the most important thing I learned from this was seeing the final end product of a video game get reaction from gamers. Sure, this experience didn't teach me how to design in-game art or concept art or how to code language but I think being here was the best place to start. What game developers strive to achieve, and have people enjoy their game. What I should be striving for when I do my senior project. It gave me a sense of what video games mean and what it should do to people.
Applied
This experience set in stone what I wanted to do for my project. I want to do video games. I am the happiest when I play video games. After all, video games is basically the sum total of every expressive medium wrapped into a nice package. (It's pretty cool when you think about it.) I want to be a part of it, to learn about it. I think video games is only really looked upon as a childish toy that rots away children, but that's only looking on the outside of it. Video gaming opens up worlds you could never reach before to the point where it's almost tangible and lets your imagination soar. Watching all the people that walked in to play, play for the same reason I do. They have fun. I want to create something that not only brings joy to me, but joy to everyone else.
