Keeping score

        I really enjoyed doing the keeping score tutorial. I was really good at it, but had to use the mini-game for some extra things. Besides that I just used the prior knowledge I had and was able to get my little orange rectangle to be eaten by my big blue guy. I know that my real game will have alot to do with numbers and things like that, but I am figuring out how to get it in. I enjoyed working with the codes on this one because it had the different layers.

Collision Detection

       I really enjoyed doing the collision detection on flash. Even though I was not able to get the collision just right. I don't know if I will have any collision in my game, but it was still good practice and I was able to learn more on flash. Also I like the coding for the shapes and what you have to do to get them not only to move but to hit and know when they hit to move back to there spots.The one thing that interests me is how the mini-game goes right along with the things we do.

imagining your game

Unhealthy food at the fair for me is starting to become a big  promblem. I think that it probalbly has somehting with obessity. In my game I will have my sorry little alien that doesn't know what to get at the fair . but with your smarts you can help him get past a day at the fair. Choosing healthy options that benifit him. You will  run in to the different  stands and and choose with the range 1-10(1 healthy 10 unhealthiest). Getting a better number choose will make you loose the most wieght once you loose a certin amout of weight you win.

Tutorial/moving shapes

    When I started working with it, it didn't make alot of sense. But after looking at the codes and some advice from others I started to get what to do. I think moving the shapes is something that I will need to learn how to do. It made me think and for some reason I liked that. It was my first real taste of what my game will hold. I can't wait for what the rest of the tutorials will show me to do.

Mini-game

I really enjoyed doing the mini-game. I think that it was very detailed and also gave alot of information. The thing that I liked the most was when you take all of the codes put them together and are able to have everything work. I can't wait to start my real game so I can put alot of the new/ cool things I learned. I did think that there was alot of saving that you have to do, but it really helps out in the end.

my first flash scene

Doing a flash scene is more hard than I thought it would be. I am guessing it is because it is my first time making one. Coding will hopefully be better. I did think that everything was really cool and I also go a big kick out of just how hard it was to move the mouse straight. In my scene I tried to make a sunny day and a billboard showing some of the unhealthy foods at the fair.
