The Big Idea: Provide an update on your team's game topic. What is the most important concept you want your players to learn? The most important concept I want my players to learn is pet safety because I feel it is important for kids to understand how some things found in their own home are very dangerous to their pets.
Making Decisions as a Team: How did your team's ideas about the game topic change over time? I wanted to have 3 characters to choose from in my game, but I ended up only having one, the dog.
Roles & Responsibilities: Tell us more about your team process. Please each talk about your specific roles, and how you work together. I have the role of doing everything in my group because I am the only member.
Research: What kind of research went into your game topic? What did you learn about your topic? What message do you want the player to understand? I looked on the internet for exponent equation solving tips and common hazards for pets. I learned different ways to solve exponent equations and different things that can be harmful to pets such as apricots, etc. I want the player to understand that it is important to keep hazards away from your pet and that it is also important that you know how to solve exponential equations correctly.
The User Experience: Explain the actions players take in your game. How do you play it? What decisions were made about features to include, and how did you decide? The player takes the action of eliminating the hazards out of the home and answering exponent equations correctly. You play my game by dragging the hazards to the pet so it can dispose of them, answering a variety of exponent equations, and then visiting the pet's local veteranarian so the player can learn more exponent equation solving skills/tips and why the hazards the player chose are proven hazards. I made decisions about animation features. I decided only to use them on the main menu because I didn't have time to complete any other animations.
Mastering Flash: What Flash resources have been most helpful in your learning so far, and why? How did you locate these resources? I think that flash, itself has been most helpful in my learning so far because it has helped me to create my own game using different drawing tools and codes. Therefore, the mini-game was the most helpful flash resource because it contained most of the basic codes I needed later on in my game. I located this resource on my wiki.
Overcoming Challenges: What curriculum topic has been most difficult for you so far? How did you overcome this difficulty? What programming features are you most proud of in your game? I think that pet safety has been the most difficult curriculum topic because it was hard to come up with hazards just concerning dogs. I overcame this difficulty by doing more research and asking other classmates about their opinion. I am most proud of my "vet" scene because I love how when you click on the "vet," the scene that comes up looks like notebook paper!
