Adding Interaction

This very hard and somewhat confusing, but it is nice to see that you made a object move by using the arrow keys.   I think it will get easier to do this the more I do it.   Interaction requires multiple steps and if you mess up on one, you mess up the whole thing.

Sound

Adding sound was fun and very easy.  The hard part about adding sound was what sound you wanted to use.  How to put the sound on your object is very easy, and so of the sounds people put on objects is very funny.  I made a laser ball.

Game Presentation

I thought our presentation was very good since we only had 1-2 days to prepare for it.  Almost everybody's presentation was very good.  This is the part where you can tell the class who is doing what, and how the game plays and looks.

Animation

This was very fun because you got to play around and see what can make you game cool looking.   Also, I can get an object to move without messing up my whole scene.  I was very happy with that because I did not wanted to start making my scene all over again.  I could also see if my animations was better or worse than my group's animations.  My animations weren't the best but at least I know how to do them.

Navigation

This was hard at first, but the coding is a lot easier once you use it a few times.  I have learn it really quick and I have gotten faster at it.

Drawing in Flash

This part was fun because you game draw a couple of scenes about your game and see if it looks cool or not.  Then you can compare your scenes to the scenes in your group to see which is the best or combined them together.  I am learn more about flash and it is getting a little easier to draw objects. 

Planning your Game

 This section was boring, but it helps to plan ahead about what and when something is going to be put in the game. It also helps you to plan who is going to do what part.

Paper Prototyping

I did not like paper prototyping that much, but did help understand what is going to happen in the game.  This process was not very fun.  I wish I could skip this stage, but I know why it is necessary to do this.

Working with Flash (Imaging Game)

Flash is pretty easy to use, sometimes.  Sometimes you can try to make a curved line and it straightens it out and messes up your picture.  Putting a background on is pretty easy.  In flash it helps if you can draw very well (not me).  I hope to learn more in flash, and I hope I can become a better drawer.

Social Issue Games

I played Ayiti The Cost of Life and that game was fun and hard, but it was easy to understand.  I learn how hard life can be if you not have a lot of money.  I also played Dufur is Dying where you have to fetch water and grow a garden.  I thought the game did not give you very clear directions, but the game was fun.

Social Issue and Learning Design Games

I think those games were fun and hard. I like games that are hard so I don't get bored with the game. Also, I learn some things from the games like how bad living conditions are in some countries. These games were educational and fun, and they were not boring.

Game design

 This should be a fun class, since I am a game player.  I think we should be able to make decent games because we are limited on we can make.
