Timer

Timer I think is like an automated score keeping. At least thats what I got out of the lecture that I had listened to. I don't know if I will be getting Timer project posted this weekend or if I will get to it Monday. I know I'm behind on projects.

Sound Effects

Sound Effects I am lucky to have plenty of sounds to use thanks to the giant sound effects book from WMUL. I did post on projects but I am not sure how well it came out. I was in the library and couldn't hear it.

Preloader

Preloader I miss this class and I haven't posted any projects yet for this topic. May not get to it til Monday. I have listened to the lecture from class.

Collision Detection

Collision Detection isn't easy and I am not liking it. I am not doing well at coding. I don't know how to incorporate this into game without something else that will make it easier.

Scrolling Backgrounds

Scrolling Backgrounds. Mine looks more like a nuclear holocaust. I am not good at coding. That is all I am saying on this subject because I am not sure how to put this in game.

Score Keeping

Score keeping is what games have. Or at least most games have some form of score keeping. I am not sure how I'm going to incorporate score keeping into game yet.

Special Effects

Special effects are cool. Special effects are hard to code, or they are for me to code. Actually, I think coding is hard for me. I want to explode zombies, artifacts, and maybe an archeologist in my game. I like explosions. I also want to use my hachet-machette to chop off heads.

Learning with Others, Finding Solutions, Navigating the Timeline

Learning with others is better for me , I need help with coding. My biggest problem is Time. It seems that I don't have enough time to work on items or coding that I want to work on. I do my best with time management but sometimes I feel overwhelmed. Anyway, I enjoy the class and I am glad and thankful for any help I receive. This is not the career field that I'm going to school for but I wonder who among classmates will be the big-time gaming monster machine. I know that sounds silly but I wonder who it will be. Finding solutions ism't easy especially when I'm not sure of the problem. I think I get irratated when i can't figure out things, this is something I need to work on within myself. I still have no idea how I'm going to use time in this game idea. I still am not sure if I can do this or not. I want to because I want to learn, I don't want to play games without knowing how they were made. So, I know that my timeing as far as I can tell is way off and I need to work more on game work and ideas.

Moving on a path

I have no idea why my moving on a path is on my wrong page. I uploaded to what I thought was the projects page but apparently I uploaded it to my homepage. I'm sorry. I like the blue ball. I think my path is wierd though, I think it is to scriggly. I find coding hard but I enjoy seeing how things are developed. I am not good at coding and would be better at it if I had more time to practice it, this is something I am working on. I don't know how the path is going to move in Anceint Zombies, I find it hard because I made it a harder concept than I wanted to. So, I need to work on a better path for the archeologist to go on. This is causing me problems.

I hate crutches!!!!!

I am going to go crazy!! I hate being with crutches, stupid foot I wish I could walk on my hands. No one's fault but my own that I got behind, at least I have excused absence papers ready. I know that I am behind and that I will not be all caught up in one day but most of it will be caught up (so I just do the best that I can with the circumstance that has happeded). I still hate crutches though!! So, here is what I know I will have done, blog posts, I have already listened to the classes that I have missed, I will have the learning log finished, the project area is the part that will not be finished (mainly Im not that good with coding, but I am working on it). So, the projects are not going to be finished but I am working on them. I can't wait til I can blow up the crutches!!!
