On Monday of week 4, we had started to learn about programming games. We first started off with something simple. The game we had to make is called Pong. Its basically ping pong on the computer. We had to use our keyboard to move the "paddles." I did not complete my game. I looked at a student model's game and read how they did theirs. I got the hang of it. Here is the incomplete game.
Another thing we did on Monday was creating our own "Story Game." Basically, making a game with a storyline to it. For example, a character will appear after a few seconds and will ask you something. Depending on your response, the program will go according to your reply. Its an interaction game. You could decide your own fate. Here is mine. It is also, not completely finished.
On Tuesday we did an activity called Multiplayer Meshing. We created a game where other people in the class could have joined if they had the IP address, even if using different computers. You could also choose your own character (Sprite). The program we used to this is called BYOB. It is based on Scratch by MIT. We had to do a command, which was Broadcast. It was used to show on others' screens. Here are some pictures.
Here are some Sprites we used. We tried making it a Mario Theme, but someone added the computer pics. I am the character Yoshi.
On Wednesday we create our own quiz using Scratch.
My game was fairly easy. It took some decent amount of time to create. I used the same format for each question. I used many "ifs" statements. I also used forever statments to keep asking the question until the user got the answer correct. I used all the tools necessary. Here is a tiny proportion.
