Paragraph:
Meow Academy is a unique wild-ride that just keeps on giving. It is a game that lets
you explore the world in which it is set in to your hearts content, and it will always
ensure that you don't explore without any purpose or drive. With all of its bizarre
themes, interesting surprises and heartwarming moments, Meow Academy is precisely
the kind of visual novel that you'd want to replay over and over again.

Sentence:
Meow Academy is a positively bizarre game that succeeds in encouraging multiple
playthroughs with its anime charm, funny surprises, in-depth lore of the titular
academy and satisfyingly heartwarming moments.

Word:
Charming

I found an image of an illustration of Dracula's Castle from the Castlevania series, saved it to my area and opened it in Photoshop. It consists of dark colours such as black and dark blue, as well as a foreground for the main gate drawing and a background for the castle drawing itself. There is also a source of light coming from the moon.

Team Meeting

19/9/18 Team Meeting Today, we were working on ideas for games. Jordan came up with the idea of making a game called Meow Academy, a parody of dating simulators. In the game, you choose whether you play as Adam Sandler or Kevin James, and the story is that the high school that the two have to go to after making too many bad movies has an accident, so they have to be transferred to a different school over in Japan called Meow Academy (since all of the high schools in America are full up), where the students are all anime cat girls. I contributed to this by attempting to draw one of the cat girls. This was my first time drawing anime, so it did not come out very well.   In our PowerPoint, I am going to be explaining the story/plot of the game. Depending on the choices you make throughout the game, you will build certain reputations with various cat girl students/teachers which affect the outcome of the game. The attitudes that the girls will have towards Sandler and James w
