Preparing For Our Presentation!

We're preparing for our presentation by creating a PowerPoint! We were each going to read different slides. Destiny is in charge of actually crating the PowerPoint. We just give her ideas on how to make the Power Point better for our actual presentation.

Catastrophes in Our World!

Haiti Earthquake


It's unbelievable how much damage the Haiti earthquake has caused. When I first heard about it I was shocked. I never knew how much damage an earthquake could do. I felt pretty bad for the Haitians. A lot of Haitians are homeless now because of this tragedy. Many people lost their families and homes. Itis a blessing how many people have come together to help out another country.





Mine Explosion



When I first heard about the miners tragedy I was shocked. I couldn't believe any of this really happened especially in our state. A lot of students from my school had families involved. It was a hard time for our school. After the memorial service things lightened up a little and I'm sure our school and other families will pull through.

Adding Sound!

Its important to have sound because it makes the game more interesting & lets you know where the buttons are!

The majority of games have sound! Games are boring without sound. If you go to a teen website with games they most likely have some type of sound in them.

I haven't really learned anything from the blogs I followed except this is a little frustrating and difficult.

Adding Interaction

So far the class has been good. It started out boring and confusing but I've got the hang of things.

Yes I like flash for the reason of being able to make a video game. Sometimes I get really frustrated and I don't even want to mess with flash. But at the end of the day I do what I have to do.

Our Game Topic-School Dropouts!

Drop out rates increase everyday! We decided to a quiz game. If you answer all the questions correctly you graduate. If not, you fail. The purpose of the game is to see if teens will make the right decisions to graduate.

Adding Animation!

The coolest thing about adding amimation is being able to make it move. When you first start out it seems plain and boring, but animation can make your game unique. You can make it move where ever you want!

There's not really a specific animation I admire. Actually, I admire it all!

Buttons!!

This video was very helpful. It was also confusing! Adding navigation is somewhat easy, but it's the scenes that make it difficult. Also, adding frames and keyframes on here is harder then I thought. Creating buttons is here is interesting. I like how when the mouse goes over them they change colors!

This Globaloria class is getting tougher by the day, but I'm going to try to stay in it.

Frames and Keyframes

You use frames and keyframes to create a animation movie.

Frames
When a frame changes from white to black it makes it a keyframe.

Keyframes
Changes the animation from it previous state.

I'm going to use frames and keyframes by timing then to make my animation move.
