Hidden Object Quiz


Creating this game was easy or at least easier than it would have been when I first came to this school. I created this game by making 5 symbols and making them all graphic. I put them each in their own layer and gave them instance names. I also made a flash layer where I put all my code in and then published and saved.

Add Hidden Objects.

What was it like to program in Flash for the first time?
This is not my first time programming in flash I've been doing this for 4 years. 

 What kind of game action would you like to add next?
A noise to go along with the buttons

Drawing Background

It was difficult because the drawings are more curvy than the precise lines on flash. Also it was fun because I used the drawing tablet.

Plan Game Scene

My vision for my game is a lit up room, very messy and very compact. In this room there is a lot of healthy foods as well as unhealthy foods that you have to look around and find all the healthy foods. What excites me is I get to educate other people about healthier choices and that I might make a difference in another persons life and helping people out.

Obesity Topic

My topic is obesity because it is a rising factor in America especially among the younger generations. Also some of the people in my family are obese and they think it is okay but it really isn't.

Presidential Debate.

I thought the debate was mediocre to get and I got both presidents points. Somehow I got the debate down to a science because I knew that Romney was going to always redirect to Obama and not answer any questions directly and Obama would just shake his head and smile. They are alot smarter than me but they made a lot of not-so-smart decisions.

Danger of a Single Story

1. What does it mean to have a 'single story' about a place or community? It means the stereotypes are all bundled together to form a story about the community of people. 2. Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is missing from that story? How could people learn more about that community? I have never actually told a story about my community. 3. Describe a single story you have heard about another community. How did you learn that story? How could you find out more about that community? I don't think I have heard a story about someone else's community, but I have heard about my dads past. 4. How could a game let players experience many stories about a place or community? It could let them experience the community by telling other peoples stories about their hardships and accomplishments.

A New Year

How has your school year been thus far?
 My school year ,this far, has been pretty crazy. Especially since the first two weeks were just a mess of wrong schedules and not dressing in the right apparel.
How are your classes?
Most of my classes are nice but there are some classes where the teacher doesn't even rule the classroom. One of those classes is my Common Applications class where the teacher responds to the class talking with silence. Another is my World Geography class.
What do you hope to accomplish this year in Academics, Sports, Art, Music, etc..........
What I hope to accomplish is to pass all my classes with a 80 or above for the rest of the school year.

Forks Over Knives

1. What do you think this documentary will be about?
          I think it will be about eating more salads and fruits besides meat products.

2. What do you think the title implies or indicates about the film?
          It implies that killing animals is wrong since most meats have to be cut with a knife while most vegetables or fruits have to be eaten with a fork.







One out of five four year old's will become obese. One out of three people who are born will have diabetes at one point in their lifetime. 50 billion dollars of culinary bi pass disease.

Respect

What does Respect look like? To me Respect looks like someone trusting and listening to another person. Respect in the hallways looks like someone moving over for another person to pass by. In the classrooms Respect is all about listening and not talking while other people are talking and doing what your told. In the computer lab Respect is when you are being quiet and blogging or doing work peacefully and not playing games behind the teachers back. During breakfast and lunch is when respect is picking up after yourself and leaving when your supposed to and saying thank you to the lunch people. When we have visitors Respect is saying hello in the hallways and to not be afraid to show them your work. You should also have your shirt tucked in when they are here.

Nike

Tiger Woods makes 100,000,000 dollars for wearing clothes while workers in Indonesia only make enough to live. The CEO of Nike doesn't want to talk about the Indonesian worker .Meals in Indonesia are very valuable. Phil Knight is cruel and wont even donate more than 10,000 dollars. Nike workers or human rights people who try to overcome Nike get beaten,tortured, or even killed. Living conditions in Indonesia are terrible there are open sewers and toxic burning rubber wast's were children play that cause cancer. Flint,Michigan needs jobs but Phil Knight wont build a factory in America because he says no one wants to build shoes.

Globaloria and Gamefication, Game Design, & Game Mechanics.

1. I learned alot in Globaloria like how to blog successfully and how to use flash.

2. Redo button(Ctrl + Z),How to add other layers in flash, How to use advanced search, How to make things move in flash by code, and how to make a .GIF image.

3. They could help me get a better career because if I put this on my resume I would get a better job.

Game design means the base of the game or quote "skeletal frame work".
Game Mechanics are how the game works and what makes the game tick.
Gamification is adding things to the game like enemies or a new character.
