SWF FILE! :)

Well its time to blog again and this time we are blogging about an SWF file that we like. Ipicked the following SWF fiebecause it has sound, it has motion, and also buttons. The SWF file was created by Alyson and Alyssa. There team name is "The Amazing A's" if you want to check out their other progress click here! Thanks for reading my blog!

Adding Input: Keyboard ! :)

Well its time to blog again and this week i'm blogging about reflecting on what i've done in flash so far. Well this week has been a sort of challenging week, but so far I really like working in flash. I think flash is very cool and interesting. Sometimes on flash things get difficult, but eventually everything works out. I really enjoy working in flash. I have made a lot progress in flash. I can't wait to learn more cool stuff in flash. Thanks for reading my blog.

Animation ;)

The above video is a great example of animation:

The picture above is an example of animaton in flash: This week in Globaloria my class learned about animation. Animation is one of the easiest topics we have done so far.  I really liked working with animation it has been a really fun week. This video animation really stands out because it is complex and takes alot of thought. This animation probably too forever to make but it is  a wonderful  example of animation. I can't wait to start using animation in my game.  If you want to learn how to use animation in flash click HERE!

Adding Buttons! ;)

This is a picture from the game link:

 In creating my game so far their is one one game that really helped me in what i've done so far. The game is called WV Animal Rescue Squad. . This game has really helped me overcome some really diffucult stuff. Without this game I have no idea how I would have made it this far. This game has great graphics and animation. The best part is it is educational and really fun to play. Other people who are having trouble I suggest the look at the following video about adding buttons and the link above. Thank you for reading my blog! :)          

Progress!

This picture is an example of a keyframe:

     Today we are blogging about our progress so far and what we struggled with. Also what was easy for us to learn, and how we like Globaloria so far. Well as of right now in Globaloria I am working on the keyframes 1-12.  The hardest part is probably the coding. Especially the coding for the buttons. The easiest part was creating the title screen. The title screen was really easy with the drawing. Creating the key frames aren't that hard either. this is usually fun, but sometines it can also be really frustrating.

Adding Scenes! :)

     In my game on adding a scene I will use alot of visual storytelling to make sure the player understands it completely. If a player doesn't understand the game they won't like and won't ever play it. The game Medical Mysteries used a lot of visual storytelling to help the play understand the game. Also the game Drift Runners had alot of visual storytelling. Even though it wasn't educational it  was still fun to play because of how they set the game up. The video below is a bad example of visual storytelling. It doesn't explain anything about the game they are portraying!

Drawing a Scene : Plotting Points

Plotting Points

 A concept that I learned about plotting points was what the most commonly used graph was called and what the difference was between different graphs. The resource I used to understand the concept was wikipedia and google. These resources really changed the way I look at plotting points. Not only am I making a learning game, but I am learning new things as I make the game. The graph that is most commonly used is called a Cartesian coordinate graph. This graph has the grid that you plot points on.

   This project has been really cool. In doing this project it has really changed the way I think about my game. I changed the game setup, the concept of the game and, the way you play the game.  I have changed alot of things about my game to make it better.  I think it really will help my game and make it more interesting. At least I hope so anyway. The video below is about paper prototyping. 

  The Rocket Racers

 First of all our team name is the Senoritas.The game that we want to make will be about plotting point on a coordinate graph. In our game the player will work at NASA. They will have to guide the rocket to get it safely home. They will have to use a coordinate graph. They have to plot the points the screen shows to make the rocket move to that point without missing one.The  player will also have to make the rocket dodge:

*asteriods

*other rockets

*Planets

*aliens

If they get a question wrong then it is game over. Our main goal for this game is to make it fun and educational as well.

By making a plotting points game that is fun we mean by like making it interactive and very exciting to play so you can learn about  plotting points. So, that is the game that we will be making!

I hope we achieve all our goals in the end! 

     I am excited about almost everything in Globaloria. I say as I make my game I will be most excited about learning new things for the first time! I think it will be an amazing learning experience.  I can't wait to learn alot of new stuff in Globaloria. Mosy of all I think it will be educational and fun!

Do you play games in your your free time like at school or at your house? Well I do all the time! One of the games I like to play in my free time is called Bloxorz In Bloxorz you have to use your arrow key to ket the block into the opening on the board. The further you go in the game the harder it gets. They will start adding switches the will take away or add some more pieces to the board. However I really love this game when I have nothing else to do. I like it because it is challenging for your brain and it really make you think to come up with strategies for this game!

Another of my all-time favorite games is Mario Party for a Wii! In Mario Party you choose a character and on your Wii it gives you a gameboard such as Bowser's dungeon and you go around the game board trying to get the stars. You get coins from doing certain things, you buy stars with your coins. At the end of the round whoever has more stars wins the game! Whenever you win you have to try to defeat Bowser's castle. The reason I love this game is becau it is so exciting and totally awesome!   

    

My first Globaloria blog!

recently started Globaloria this year so i'm new to it. I am really excited about being in Globaloria this year! However, in Globaloria I hope to create a game that everybody loves! I will make a math game for Globaloria I want it to have something to do with being a nurse or doctor. I am most excited about learning how to create a game. I'm not really scared about anything except people not liking my games. I can't wait to get started!

My Game Genre!! :)

     I think my Globaloria game genre is going to be a racing game.I want a racing game because racing games are really exciting and fun as well. Though, I played one racing game that was really fun but it wasn't educational. Everbody thought the was setup really well with good graphics but it since it wasn't educational it wasn't very good, it could have been better. However, my game is going to be fun as well as educational because I think since you have to go to school you should have some fun!
