Adding scene links

 

The story that my game tells is going through the different foods and finding how healthy they are.  By doing this you learn what good choices to make at the fair are. The example of the game that had a good story to it was “Medical Mysteries”.  It led you through and you did many levels that were based on medical things. I have also played many games on not just the computer that goes together and makes a story.

My Thanksgiving Traditions

     My Thanksgiving tradition is all about my family spending time together. Every Thanksgiving I am able to have meals with my mom's side of the family and also my dad's since all of my grandparents live close by. The whole day pretty much starts at my dad's parents because they have their meal at noon. We try to get there early so we can see everyone and help in the kitchen. It is a fun filled afternoon of over eating and visiting. Then later in the day we get in the car and drive to my mom's parents. My grandma always makes a different spin on the meal beacause she knows that we are filled already with turkey. That is where we always finish the Thanksgiving meal(s). I really like seeing most of my family on one day.

Paper Prototyping

      I really liked making the paper prototype. After making it I am sure what will happen and what everything will do. I think that I was able to make my social issue (fair food) and my math concept (range) come together. After working on it I feel that I know all of the details that my game will have. I felt that I had a well working game so I had someone play my game and they seemed to enjoy it. I had many ideas of what my game would have in it but with the paper prototype I was able to make them come together. So in the end I think that the paper prototype was used so that when you sit down to make the game you don't take time thinking of what to do you just start.  

Planning Your Game

My team is named the pirates. I am the only one in my team. I will make and finish my game all by myself. I have worked on two of my scenes for my game on flash so far.I think that what I look forward to the most is the codes that I will work with. I really like working with flash and I think that I have learned alot from it.

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.
