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!
