Mid Term Survey

When I took the mid term survey from globaloria I was suprised by how close the questions related to me. The questions were very easy to answer because they were very closely related to the things we have already done this year.

Action Script

As the year moves on we are preparing to start out game project. We will need to know many action script coding strings.

I think the minigame has helped prepare us for coding. Already I have memorised some lines of code that can be used in games. We will have to look up how to do certain things in our games on the internet.

I have found that the Adobe Comunity is a great place to ask questions about coding.

I look forward to completing our game.

Games for this year

I have recently read a game idea of another student. The game was about the enviroment and global warming. Durring the game the student will be taught about the effects of global warming and how to respond to it. I think the ame seems pretty cool and will efectivly teach the student how to make the right choices to help the enviroment.

I look forward to seeing the game in comletion.

First Nine Weeks

The first nine weeks are over and we are off to a great start!

We have learned some basic flash and have made a minigame. We have started work on our full game project. I cant wait to see our game in action

Cheers to a great year!

Teams In Globaloria

Today I we picked teams in class to work on our main game with. My team name is the QWERTY Keyboards. My team partner is Forest. Hopefully we will be able to come up with a pretty cool game by the end of the year.

This is my first completed flash game. For now the name of it is Metero Showers. The object is to stop the meteors from hitting Earth. If a meteor get past you you will loose 5 points. I think I am going to change it t three later. The only major promlem right now is that the game starts before you are ready which I will be fixing soon. All you need to do to play is use the arrow keys.

I think making this game has readied me for future games we will be making. I now understand the basics of action script and think I could make this game agian without any tutorial help.

This is my first flash minigame. It is a work and progress and it is not finished yet but I think it is pretty neat.

My Game Review

'''Game 1: Bullseye (point is to shoot arrows into a target)'''

'''Game Concept: 2'''

The game has no true educational value or moral to the game. The game play experience is decent but it has been done before. The visual design is actually pretty good for the game. These observations led me to give game concept a two.


'''Creativity: 3'''

The games creativity was surprisingly good. The cartoonish scenery went well with the game. It looks like they spent a while in flash with the drawing.


'''User Interface Design: 4'''

The UI was incredible for a student made game. There were many tools such as adjusting the wind speed and moving the target. There were also tools that showed you the angle of your shot ect.


'''Graphic Design: 3'''

no comments


'''Interactivity and game play: 3'''

The game has no instructions and you are left to figure it out yourself but it is still easy to catch on to.


'''Functionality: 4'''

Coding seemed flawless.


'''Educational Value: 1'''

The game presents no obvious source of education

technology in school helping in real life.

The things we learn in school sometimes help us directly in our everyday activities. I like to do the things we do in globaloria at home too so I think it is great that I get to do something fun at school for once. Learning how to do things in school will help me to do the things I like at home too and I am really looking forward to a great year!

My first Blog!

Just set up my first blog for my globaloria class. I am looking forward to updating everyone with future blog posts!
