Game

We have been working on our game all this week in globaloria. My game is coming along great so far. I hope to add a link in it later next week. Mrs. sheppard is seeing if ahe can make two things move  on my game. After that I will begin working on the next level of my game. The level I am currently working on is a queestion were you place a hotdog on the right bun. Then if you get the right bun you move on in the game. I am trying to make each level better than the last so that my game gets better as you get further into it. If the timeline goes as planned the game should be done towards the end of the year. Good luck to everybody else whon is working on there game.

Intro to actionscript

Intro to actionscript was a little helpful I would say. It some new codes for flash but some of them I new already. The video showed you how to use a thing in flash where is you type 'on' it will bring a list of actions. After completeing the actionscript I felt that I hadn't got a whole lot accomplised but overall it was decent to use for flash. Next we will be doint pragramming practice I haope that will devlop my game even more.

Development plan


Today in globaloria I worked on my devlopment plan. The development plan is where you review your game and replace the old scenes you had before. There were alot of changes in my game so far. In part of my game I had no animation at all and now I am planning on having all my scenes with aniamtion. Also there has been less text in my game so instead I draw my words mostly to make it more creative. From the time to the paper protoype there has been an enourmous amount of changes. I think my gmae is more fun and interactive now from when I was plannning it to be. The one major thing the development plan shows you is your progress overall. I like it because it gives you a sense of accomplishment. I have learned that you have to have patience and a understanding of how to work with flash. Once my game is done I will work on the next development plan and by that time my game should be over

Game

Explain where you are in your game. Are you headed in the same direction that you started or have you taken a detour? What is the most exciting thing about your game? What is going to be the most difficult thing in making your game? Do you need help in any part of your design? Are you planning on adding anything that was not included in your paper prototype? If so, why did you change your mind? Right now I am still working on the first level of my game. I am trying to get all my scenes to navigate correctly. Now I am going at a stedy speed on my game it was due this friday but since we missed two days of school so it will probably be extended. The most difficult part in the game is when the scens do noot navigate and you can't figure out how to fix it. The bet part of the game is the creativity and design of your game I need no help with either. I have added a lot since my paper prototype the ideas are completelt different. I changed them because the first ideas didn't seem right to me.

least favorite math concept

What is your least favorite math concept? Why do you dislike it? What can you do to improve it? Find a link that will help you with the concept. Find two games that will help you with the concept. After playing the games, are you more comfortable with your skills? What else can you do to improve your skills with this concept? Make sure you link the research pages and game links.

My least favorite concept in math is graphing. I dislike it because it doesn't seem really important because it is so simole that you have learned enough by now to not learn it anymore. To improve this I think you would only need about 1-2 weeks on the subject. Here is alink about my theory. http://www.groupthink.com.au/2009/12/03/does-you-like-pointless-graphs-to-illustrate-your-point/ There are graphs that are helpful but learning at a certain excent is pointless unless youa re planning to use in your future.
