Our Final Games 4-22-11

Game Presentations are right around the corner. We are working very hard to try and complete our games. I don't need a lot for my game to be finished. We're having an activity today, but I'm going to try and finish my game while everyone else is having fun. The only thing that needs accomplished on my game is adding the fractions onto my squares. It shouldn't take to long, but with the luck that I'm having it could take all year.

What I Need To Finish 4-15-11

We don't have but a week to get our games together and finished. It's going to be sketchy, but I believe that we can do it. I don't need a lot for my game to be finished, but it's going to be hard to get my game complete. The things that I need to complete is score, I also have to put the fractions on the blocks, and then I have to correct the hit test for it to go to the congrats scene. I don't know if I'm going to add score or not, I'll mention it in my next blog.

Changes Since The Start of The Year 4-11-11

I've made a lot of progress on my game since the beginning of the year. At the beginning of the year I didn't do anything in flash, but lately I've locked down and got my head out of the gutters. The three main things that I've done lately is hit test, timer, and navigation with the arrow keys.

The first accomplishment that I had was hit test. One of the most important things in my game is hit test, so if I didn't create a hit test my game would be nothing. It took a couple of days to find the codes for it, but once I added them to my game it brought the game to life.

The second accomplishment that I had was timer. I still haven't figured it out all the way. I've got it counting down, but after the scene is complete it still counts down and makes my game glitch BADLY!!!

The third and final accomplishment that I had was navigation with the arrow keys. Navigation with the arrow keys is one of the most important things in my game. Without navigation of the arrow keys the football player wouldn't move. If the football player didn't move then it wouldn't be an original football game.

So these are the accomplishments that I've made to my game.Hit test, timer, and navigation with the arrow keys only took me about a two weeks to create all of these.
