Answer 6

Carmen is working in the **post-production** stage of the production cycle. This stage typically includes tasks like releasing new content and updates for games that are already published.

Answer 7

Deshawn should assign deadlines based on **smaller milestones within the project instead of the entire project**. This approach is well-suited for the iterative design method, which emphasizes continuous improvement and allows for adjustments based on feedback at each stage of development.

Answer 8

I apologize for the oversight. Among the provided options, the best choice for Deshawn as he utilizes the iterative design method would be:

**"Deadlines should be based on smaller milestones within the project instead of the entire project."**

This approach aligns with the iterative design methodology, which focuses on completing portions of the project in cycles and refining through feedback.

Answer 9

The correct answer is **production cycle**. The production cycle outlines all the stages that games go through during their development.

Answer 10

The correct response is: **Different types of hardware and playstyles can be tested with the game.**

The beta testing stage is important because it allows developers to identify and fix issues in a diverse range of gaming environments and user experiences, thereby ensuring that the game performs well across various systems and meets the expectations of different players.

Answer 11

Quinn would most likely be **designing the user interface**. While a 2D artist may also be involved in creating 2D assets for characters or scenery, designing the user interface typically relies on 2D art skills and is often a suitable role for someone with a background in 2D art when working on a 3D video game team.
