Our Game

Our game is coing along. We alomst have the first level of the game completed. All that is left is the scene where you have to drive the truck down the road to make it home and you will have to stop along the way to check in your deer. Also, we need a screne for when you do not get the deer. Here is a picture from our game! It is whenever the hunter is trying to shoot his deer.

My Game

So far, the game has been coming along good. I have made the first scenes in it. These are just timple background information. On the actual game play, the hunter can look out all of the windows. whenever they do, that is where the problem starts. The mouse is hidden and a crosshair follows the hidden mouse. Whenever the hunter goes back inside, the mouse is no longer there. I am going to have to find a solution to this.

I forgot what the topic was...so here's one anyway

Okay, I think we had a blog post this weekend and u forgot the topic so I'm goin to post one on some random stuff. Tomorrow else are going to the middle school to help their Globaloria class. They need help with Flash I think. I hope they keep the questions simple because I'm not te greatest with flash myself. Bit the hear part of the trip is that it usbtaking place during first and second period. These are two harder classes that I will gladly miss. Well, this is my blog post about going to the middle school because I forgot the real topic.

Game changes

Friday, I had a great game idea. This was to change the hunter from in s tree stab to a grind blind with four windows. The hunter would have to look out the right window to sop the deer. Then the deer would move around the forest. The player would have to wait on the proper shot time do they would not hit a tree or another object. I feel that this game design will be more fun for the player. Tomorrow I will finish making the ground bound so the hunter can look outside. My partners will fin zone facts about deer relate accidents that will also be included in the new game design. Also the paper prototype will have to be changed.

Mr. Lucas Visits

Friday Mr. Lucas visited our class. He recently has went to a Globaloria meeting. He had heard from a video game designer while there. He told the group that a video game producer made about $80000 a year on average starting off but it is average to make around 120000 a year. Since I like the class, this has made me think about my career.

Presentations

Today in 4th period Globaloria, we experienced the greatness of presenting the game. The people on the other end of the phone were making our lives very complicated. They suggested topics that we never thought of before. These seemed to help; however, this was hard becasue they put us on the sopt! This really gets on my nerves. I can't stand whenever they do this to me. But, I guess it went okay and I did it any way. Also, during the extreme fun that we were having, the camera decided it was funny to turn off. We did not get the presentation on film. I suggested that we do it now, but Gunnar strongly refusing to do so. Thank you Mr. Curry for extending our pain.

Some People Need to Learn to Teach

Some people need to learn how to teach a class. If you make a 98 A on a test, then your grade should go up. But, no! It goes down to a B instead of an A. If anyonw in the world can explain how this works, please tell me.

SOUNDS!!!!!!!

     Sounds are the dreatest thing on earth. Today, we had to make a button make a noise whenever you clicked it. Since my game is about hunting, I used a gun sound. Every time you moussed over the button a loud BOOM! went off. I think i spent way too much time playing with my little yellow button andmaking a lot of ramdom gun sounds. But overall, this halped me and my game.

The Team Mess Up

     A few days ago, our teams got messed up. Two people had to leave the class due to a mess up in their scedule and had to take another class in the 4th period class. With out them, two teams were left with only one person. The teams split up into other teams. Our team, FRA, gained one team member and the other went to another one of the teams in our class. This wasn't that big of a deal to me, but it messed up a lot in our class.

Tracing

The trace bitmap is a good feature. Since I can not create images in Flash to save my life, it allows me to legally steal images. This will make my game look a lot better. Hopefully I will be able to use this in my game to make it better.

My Computer Hates Me!

Well, I think it's official, my computer hates me. It decided to almost crash with all of my game information saved on it. This wouldnt be to bad, BUT IT ONLY TOOK ME TWO WEEKS TO MAKE! So, I have come to a conclusion. This is that HP computers are junk and should not be bought by anyone who isnt willing to waste a few hundred dollars of their money. I have been beginning to think this after not only my computer has crashed, but like every other one in the lab has to. So, my words of advice: always save more than once so you dont loose it and only buy Dell computers.

Flash

Flash is getting easier. I learned how to trace objects which makes drwaling a lot easier. Also, Im working on making the game work. This may be complicated. Wish me luck.

The Excitement of our Class- Jay Castle

     Last night, our school had our rival game againsst Chapmansville Regional High School. During the National Anthem, Jay yelled "THE HOME OF THE WILDCATS" near the end. Within five seconds, the whole place knew who Jay Castle was. Our class is now fanmous in Logan County.

The Game!

     This mini game has killed me! My button in the game will not show up! I dont know wahat to do with it. I think that before this year is over, I'm going to kill this computer.

Flash

     I have learned a lot about flash in the past few days. One helpful thing that I learned was that you can put stuff in folders. This makes life so much easier. It keeps stuff organized too. I can now make buttons change colors. This has no real point, but its as fun trick. Overall, flash is getting better, but drawling is still killing me.
