Presenting Your Demo

  • The Big Idea: Provide an update on your team's game topic. What is the most important concept you want your players to learn? I want my player to learn that we can't waste trees.  





  • Making Decisions as a Team: How did your team's ideas about the game topic change over time? I was thinking about doing recycling, but I've seen games like that and I wanted mine to be original. 





  • Roles & Responsibilities: Tell us more about your team process. Please each talk about your specific roles, and how you work together. I’m the only one in my group so I did all the drawing, coding, answering questions, and blogging on my own but with the help of classmates and teacher. 





  • Research: What kind of research went into your game topic? What did you learn about your topic? What message do you want the player to understand? Well I didn't know a whole lot about my topic which is what made it interesting to me. I want the player to understand why it is important to save trees. 





  • The User Experience: Explain the actions players take in your game. How do you play it? What decisions were made about features to include, and how did you decide? The player has to use the keyboard controls to move a squirrel around a maze and plant trees by answering math questions. I didn't have to decide a lot of things because I'n on my own.





  • Mastering Flash: What Flash resources have been most helpful in your learning so far, and why? How did you locate these resources? I think the flash videos have been helpful during the process of my game because it shows me step by step how to do things.





  • Overcoming Challenges: What curriculum topic has been most difficult for you so far? How did you overcome this difficulty? What programming features are you most proud of in your game? I think that the most difficult thing was my maze scene. I had to convert each line to a symbol and put a hit test for each line.

    My Globaloria Game Story

    Okay listen up boys and girls. We have a special story prepared for you. It is a true story and it's called Theresa's Globaloria Story written by Theresa. Once upon a time in a magical fairy princess land, a girl in the seventh grade named Theresa was in a class called Globaloria. That is a class where you make a game on the computer. The end of the year was approaching and she was almost done with  her game. But one day an evil leperchaun snuck into the school and deleted her game. The next day she went onto the computer to work on her game, but it wasn't there! She searched every file but she had no luck finding it. She then came to the conclusion that an evil leperchaun from Leperchaun Land had stolen her game and hid it on Jupiter. So to this very day Theresa's Globaloria game is on Jupiter with slimy alien babies slobbering all over it. The End!

     
    This is the evil leperchaun who stole Theresa's game

    Proof That I Know Grown Up Words

          As you have noticed, all of my blogs are multicolored. However, this blog will NOT be colored due to the fact that some people are chromophobic. I am sorry for this inconvenience. I am also trusting you to not quidnunc BECAUSE this blog is not colorerd. I am not trying to be sesquipedalian but this is a very serious blog! I truly apologize if you are hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobic, so if you are please restrain from reading this journal entry. If you are also epistemophobic do not attempt to learn these monumental terms. This blog is considered new until I post a newer blog. It's probably good I can smell you because you are most likely jumentous. It is most likely that you don't know most of these terms so feel free to be dactylonomy. If you are kainolophobic do not read this until a post something else. In fact, I don't want you to even read this blog because you will sue me for all these injuries. So the phrase after the following phrase will make up for it. CAUTION: IF YOU ARE LALOPHOBIC DO NOT READ THIS POST OUT LOUD TO ANYONE! P.S. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INJURIES THAT HAS OCCURED BECAUSE OF THIS BLOG! This concludes my journal entry for the evening.
