Add Scoring

I personally like a game where if I collect the collectible, I win. It's just a personal preference for me.

Create A Collectable

My player will earn points if they collect the collectable. It will make my game more educational by getting the player to be more cautious and pay attention.

Prototype & Trace

All the paper prototype helped me with is, to give me a mental image of what I wanted my game to look like. I pretty much knew what I wanted my game to look like. It didn't really help me with anything.

Add Keyboard Control

Some ways to make my game more interactive are: adding an enemy and a collectible item, it will make the game more fun for the player. I also may add another level to my game to make the game longer but fun.

Move With Game Loop

I just want my player to jump and move side to side. Right now my game can do that.

Program First Action

Since the value of x moves the player side to side, I think the value of y determines the height the player can jump. The code I used was perfect for my game so I didn't want to change it. 

Create MovieClip

My player is an African American women since my inventor was an African American woman. I want the player to be some what like my inventor, Sarah Goode. I want the player to feel as if they are in that time period.

Plan Game Scene

For my game I have an idea in my head that it will take place in a bedroom in the late 1800's. In the bedroom there will be a cabinet bed folding and unfolding gradually from a bed to a desk. The player will have to collect the pencils around the folding bed. The pencils will increase the players score, but if the player is touched by the bed their score will decrease. 
I think what excites me is that I have my game pretty much planned out already.

Choose A Learning Topic

My learning topic is science because any invention is science related. My inventor is Sarah Goode. She made the cabinet bed. My game will have the bed opening and closing into the desk, which will be the enemy for the player. There will be pencils to collect while the bed is turned into the desk. If the player is hit by the opening bed they will lose points or die. The pencils will be the points they can earn if they collect them.

Action Games

While playing these action games I saw many game ingredients being used. Some ideas I got were they maze and walls.

Just Like Me

Lily Collins is in a book as Kelsey. She is very timid without her friends. She can also be very out spoken when say you something that offends someone she loves.  She is very protective just like me. We are very similar in many ways. This is her..

Were I Want To Visit

The place I want to visit most is, Stratford. I was to go because it is where Justin grew up. I just wanna see where he came from and how it all started. I for sure want to go to his star by the Avon Theater. The Avon Theater is where he would busk when he was younger. I also want to visit all his favorite restaurants. I really want to see where his grandparents lived. Stratford is on the top of my list of places to visit.

Do The Right Thing!

          One time I was asked to skip class with a few other friends. It was hard telling them "no" because they were my friends, but I knew skipping was the wrong thing to do. I was thinking I would upset them if I said no, and it was pretty weird that they didn't. They understood and I went to class.
          I'm glad that I didn't let myself fall into peer pressure that day. I was just happy they understood instead of making me do it. I learned not to give into peer pressure easily and always stay true to myself. Some people are afraid to say no, but I think no one should ever be pressured into something they do not want to do. 
          This day was a learning experience for me. I think I will always remember how I didn't fall into peer pressure that day.
