Photoshop Intro

In creating my header with Photoshop, I used images of Pong, Flappy Bird, Ronald McDonald, Mr. Poopy Butthole from Rick and Morty, Mothra clip-art, the crowbar from Half-Life, a "vote for Pedro" picture and log of the loading screen from a mac. With these images, I made several changes to allow them to fit together. The Pong image I used as the background had to be adjusted to size and properly cropped to show the main section of the game. Ronald McDonald and Flappy bird had to be colored in as they were transparent images with pencil and paint brush. the image of Mr. Poopy Butthole, Mothra and the crowbar required me to use the magic wand or quick select tool to select and remove background so that it would allow for the look of "one setting" in the header. The loader logo had to be worked on as well as the image's quality was not the best, requiring me to color in a little with the pencil tool. The "Vote for Pedro" image was placed onto the shirt with the regular move tool and was properly bent and angled with tricks using Ctrl. All of the images required the use of the move tool to move and properly place the images in a place I found was appropriate.

Kodu - intro

1: Working with the program , I had difficulties remembering to switch between the tools to allow me to edit the map. I often added objects onto the map instead of dragging across to see a different section of the map at a different angle. I also had difficulty with the programming of the Kudo and the bots as many of the tiles I read as doing the same thing when they meant the difference between gain one point for one apple once or gaining a point per apple each. 2: After receiving advice from a couple student, I made the game a little more challenging and made the map a little easier to maneuver through. To do this I made the bots faster and made the map have less boundaries, allowing the Kudo more open space to run. Bot programming:  Map layout: Kudo programming:

Scratch Level 3 - Pong

Project page:  https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/185441294/ 1: While putting together the game, I faced a couple of problems. One of these problems was with how fast the ball started off and did not allow me to react quick enough, to fix this, I lowered the starting speed of the circle. I also found the game would take too long to get someone to score, so, I increased the rate at which the ball sped up. The coding was hard to keep track of at times, which I remedied by watching the tutorial and looking at the code often. 2: To differentiate my game from the tutorial, I first made the game a multiplayer game with two players as it was simple and allowed for more fun. I also played with the background, paddles and the circle. For the paddles, i used trampolines as it made sense with the circle bouncing around. I also used the button from the Watchmen, a graphic novel, and the background was just of a country I want to travel to. I also created a point system that allowed made the...

GameMaker - Asteroids - Part C

I've now finished the Asteroid and the google drive link is  here . Like before, the tutorials were a little fast paced for me but I managed to keep up by asking for help or re-watching the videos. I also, again, found that I made several typing errors especially when I though I knew what I was doing and did not follow the tutorials.This time however, I had problems with trying out some new ideas that were not used in the videos and which I came up with myself. I wanted to assign different image indexes of the same sprite to different on objects. This was a little confusing for a while, but with a little help and eventually realizing that I couldn't use a shortcut got me to get what I wanted. Other than that I made some artistic changes in the way the background, spaceship and asteroids looked. I also tried to change the mechanics of the game, in this case, by making the bullets that shoot out of the ship what propel the ship.
