Self Reflection

Overall, this has been a meaningful and memorable project for the three of us. We have investigated into the subject English, and have realized the power of it. By designing our game, we have learnt some methods to increase our interests and to master our language.

Throughout the whole working process, we learnt more about teamwork and cooperation. Although we faced a lot of obstacles in the process, we helped one another, and solved several difficulties. In conclusion, this is absolutely a fruitful project for us, and we really enjoy participating in it.
