Game Proposal

1.  There is no story to the game, the point of the game is to be the first to get to 20 points and the game requires 2 physical people to play.
2. The 2 Slenderman balls are going to be created through a jpg image,the 2 paddles will be from scratch and the background will be a jpg image.
3.  The coding process is going to first be the music then the background and after that it is going to be the 2 paddles and finally it is going to be the 2 Slenderman balls.
4. The plan is to day 1 to get music into the game,day 2 is where I find all my images and start programing the background and the two paddles, day 3 is where I continue programing the to Slenderman balls, and finally on day 4 I will put the finishing touches on it and test it before posting it.

1.  The problem that I was having was that only player 1 was getting points so I fixed the problem by duplicating it and changing the center point to the far left side on one of them and far right side of the other.
2.  The changes that I made to the game was adding a second ball and adding sound to it. I did this to make it more interesting because you don't know which ball will actually give you points and the music was to make it creepy themed.

Video Games: The Movie

1.  Some reasons that video games were successful was because it was a new and interesting thing   to do and it eventually became portable. One of the important thing to make a game popular is having a story.
2. One of the reasons that the game industry crashed in the 1980's was when they rushed the release of the game "ET-The extraterrestrial " to have it out when the movie came out.
3. Yes, I think video games are a type of art because the creators use their imagination to create digital worlds and then basically bring them to life along with the characters they create.
4. The next generation in video games will most likely be almost life like. More interactivety is something that should be fixed in the future generations of video games.

Game Designer Skills

  Three skills that I can do are animation,brainstorming and creative writing.

    My experience with animation is done through my digital animation class to help me with learning how to animate. I also have experience with animation through my game design class as well. I've been doing animated pixel art in my game design class. I am also doing gif's and stop motion in my digital animation class. I also now have experience with using Photoshop as well.

     I've done a lot of brainstorming throughout my years at school. I've done brainstorming in a bunch of classes as in English,Social studies and Math. I've brainstormed for class project's. I have also brainstormed for writing assignments and essay's. I've also brainstormed ideas for group chat's at school as well.

      I have mainly had experience with creative writing in English class. there have been times when I have had to do some creative writing in Social Studies as well though. I've had to write short story's, poetry and essay's. There have been times where I have had to do some creative writing during a novel study too. I have also been having to work on my writing skills in the past too.


     The skill that I am finding very challenging for me is mathematics. I have a grade 11 experience level of math, but it was apprenticeship and workplace math though. I've never really been very good at mathematics.
