Finally...

Here is a quick update on what I've been up to this week. Earlier this week I was working on the Grape Juice Box game design and trying to figure out how to add coding for character affects, like making them run,jump, etc. Also trying to find coding for buttons. One of my team mates have been out of school a little this week so I had Derekh to work on an office scene and its starting to look great. Today has been a good day for me, my teachers and team mates have been helping me on the game coding that I have been looking for. So finally I'm getting a little better at flash with the coding.

Being All I Can Be

To start off this week has been a little rushed for me. Monday the whole class finally presented the tutorials that we were assigned to make weeks ago. The class had to grade each others tutorials like how User Friendly it was, was the Topic Covered, etc. I think I did OK on my presentation, but I would have done better if I would have more experience getting up in front of people and speaking about a certain subject.

Anyways, today I was on hunt to find a teacher who had some sports uniforms that the class needed for the film we have been working on for the BOE. I went to the library and didn't find the teacher so I went to "C" building and still didn't see the teacher. I finally got back to "A" building and I was told to go take the Writing Assessment. So you probably guess that I was wore out. Hopfully the rest of the week will turn out better.

1 Quick Update Coming Up

This week the class has been compromising on our assignments. The whole class has been working on a new film for the Board of Education, to show them what our school has and somewhat of what we need. Another student and I have been working on giant letters for our film that represent our school (GWHS). Another thing we have been busy with is our game designs in flash, and I have a good idea of how my team's game is going to turn out. Now I just to get crackin on it ASAP.

Comment for Homework

I read a post that said some games pertain to a players experiences. There was a request to comment on it and to explain if it pertains to our own game.



To start off that does make a lot of sense for a game to expose the player to the real world with their own experiences. My team's game does pertain to this, our game has to do with your health and what you can do to help yourself stay healthy. If the player never washed their hands they could get sick and by playing our game it could influence them to do so. Also if they don't like to eat healthy maybe our game could show them how much better off it would be for them to eat right. I just hope that our game does influence others to do whats right for their health.

Keeping My Pace

Today Ellie and I started on word designs for a new video. We had a little trouble starting off, considering that we didn't like the version of Microsoft Word on the computers, but then Ms. Neal said that she had the version we liked on her laptop. Then we got back to business when Ms. Neal said she remembered it wasn't working even when some teachers attempted to fix it. Even if others might not think today was successful, I found out what computers NOT to use.
