Animated Pixel Art

Making my animated gif, I used several tools including the move tool, rectangular marquee tool, lasso tool and Pencil tool. In the GIF, a man throws his wii remote at a T.V causing it to brake and allows one of the aliens from space invasion to attack him. I used a total of 56 frames, each changing the character's position.

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.

GameMaker - Asteroids Part A

I began making a game based on or similar to the game Asteroids. There is a link in this blog post to see what I have done so far. Making this game there were a few issues I ran into, one of which was the coding the actions to the events. To fix this, I asked for some help, after which I learned that you could look at the tab that would pop up for where to make the fixes. I also, had found that the concepts that the tutorials introduced were fairly confusing, which I solved by going back and re-watching it.

Pixel Art

I decided to recreate the Delorean from the Back To The Future trilogy in the form of pixel art, as it was this school that honours Michael J. Fox and his donations to this school and as he stars in the movie. Making the pixel art, I used skills from last year and used an image of the modified Delorean and a picture of lines of fire that is iconic with the vehicle. Pixel Art: the images I used as inspiration:
