How They Went!!!!

I think that the game presentations went well besides the fact that I used the wrong PowerPoint. I learned that our game needs a lot of work done with it. Yes we are going to probably rename our game and we are going to focus on one amendment.We realized that we need to focus on one amendment, change the title, and finish the game scenes.


We have two or three different topics, but the game presentations made us realize that we need to narrow it down to one.Like I said before we have two or three different topics, but we are going to narrow it down to one, but we don't know what one.We still need to do a little more research about the amendments and peoples rights.We might change our name, but we think that our name suits our game because it is a trivia game.We will add more scenes.

My New Year's Resolution

My new year resolution is to finish my game demo with ten levels.I would like to finish my game with ten levels because then I would have a better chance of winning the competition at the end of the year. I also want to win the best game competition at the end of the year. I would like to win the competition because I would get a free laptop with flash updated on it. If I win the competition I will thank Mrs. Barker for helping me in Flash and for never letting me give up.I would like my new year resolutions to come true so that I would get an A on my report card.

My Research

These last two days I have been researching.I have been researching really hard. I have been researching about citizens' rights.Here are some rights.

Every citizen has right to vote if you’re 18 or older, the right to a fair trial, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, right to national security, privilege of traveling, and every citizen has the right to be eligible to work in all areas.Here are some more rights.Freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, to keep and bear arms, freedom of the press, and protection for those accused of crimes. I got my research from http://www.wikipedia.org/.

People have problems or questions about citizens rights everyday.

I did my research so that I could figure out some facts and I also done it so that I could make my game better.

Assasination of Abraham Lincoln

The presidential party arrived at Ford's at about 8:30 P.M. Armed with a single shot derringer and a hunting knife, Booth arrived at Ford's at about 9:30 P.M. Joseph Burroughs, a boy who worked at the theater, held his horse in the rear alley. Booth went next door to a saloon for a drink. He entered the front of Ford's Theatre around 10:07 P.M. Slowly he made his way toward the State Box where the Lincolns were sitting with Clara Harris and Major Henry Rathbone. Lincoln's bodyguard, John Parker of the Metropolitan Police Force, had left his post. At about 10:15 P.M. Booth opened the door to the State Box, shot Lincoln in the back of the head at near point-blank range, and struggled with Rathbone. Booth stabbed Rathbone in the arm and jumped over 11 feet to the stage below. When he hit the floor he snapped the fibula bone in his left leg just above the ankle. Many in the theater thought he yelled "Sic Semper Tyrannis" (Latin for "As Always to Tyrants"). Mrs. Lincoln screamed, Booth flashed his knife at the audience, and he made his way across the stage in front of more than 1,000 people. Everything happened so fast that no one had time to stop him. Booth went out the back door, climbed on his horse, and escaped from the city using the Navy Yard Bridge.

Adding Animation and Sound

I'm going to blog about what I've done in the adding animation and sound units.

So far in adding navigation I have made a square move, then I made the square move about half of the screen and then it will change to a circle and keep on moving, the final thing I done on this unit was, I made my house move from side to side on my title scene.

So far in adding sound I have made a man walking across a brick wall doing a front flip and then stopping after he finishes the flip and he will stick his hands up in the air.I haven't added sound to him yet, but I am going to put a zoom sound while he's in the air and then when he gets done I will have a background sound going hooray or something.

I have been working really hard and if you want to see look at my projects page.
