Play to Learn

 What kind of ideas did you get for your own game? 

What differences did you see between the 3D and 2D 

versions of Malaria Prevention?

     The Ideas I got for my own game is it could be like the

 character can be running away from the terrible hold of 

their terrible home and then running into a better one. 

The diffrence between the 3D and the 2D is the 2D 

wasn't as detailed as  the 3D one. The 2D is a great one 

to play yet the 3D is better. Being as unexperienced as I 

with games I'm not very well with these. But the games 

where both good yet i like 3D better. It was as if YOU 

the character.

Course Overview......

    What i'm excited to work on......? Hmm... Well I guess it would have to be trying to make a better game this year, well that is if i can, but i have enough confidence to do me well so it shouldn't be too hard. I'm really hoping my game will be really cool. It would be nice to play a game I made that works so well.  I think it would be a challenge but i can try to do it well, It shouldn't be a huge hassle. Yeah so that is pretty much all. =D

Diffrent Ways To Find Help In Globaloria.............

How might your classmates or friends help you with your 

projects? How will you help your classmates with their 

projects?

      The way my classmates or friends help me is by explaining things to me that i might have missed or don't understand. Help me find codes for a game or questions to a blog. The way i can help classmates with their projects can be the same way. If they are having a hard time not being able to understand and i understand then i can explain it much better for them.  

My Blog

            Who are you? How will you use your blog to help others understand you work with Globaloria?

    
   Hello I am Andre'Nae . I will use my 

blog to show others how I am progressing in my work 

and what i am struggling in. I will show how my game

 is coming along and if there are  any problems others 

can share what they like. I will explain what i am doing 

and try to upload codes , but yeah that is how i can 

probably explain things. =) 

Choosing Game Topic

            The reason I choose Child Abuse as a topic is because I think it's very wrong to hurt little kids no madder how old they are. I hate to hear or see anything that has to do with abuse on innocent. I would like to see a humongous change on how people ( Adults) treat the future of our economy and world (in a way). This topic means a lot to me because I love to see little kids laugh and be happy. I do not like it when kids cry, it makes me sad. So that is why I choose Child Abuse as my game topic.

            Well I really didn't have to ask my partner if it should be child abuse we pick. She basically already had picked the same topic. So it's okay but my other partner she just came in. Technically new to the team.

My # 1 Organization

      My  # 1 choice is 

http://www.preventchildabusetexas.org

   I think it's good to help kids who have been ( or who are) abused, by parents, foster parents, or even older siblings. Even if it is by someone they don't know, either way it's wrong. That's why I picked this website.

  My ideas for a game dedicated to this website would be..... 

 Right now i'm not sure, I'm thinking a character that runs around. they'er late for school and are taking a short cut. But then they run into a man who is abusing his daughter. the character avoids the man and saves the girl by taking her and running. then the character runs to the police station and reports the man using his daughter as evidence. Then in the next level the character is at home and sees his father beat his little brother for no reason. the character has no way to get a phone so the character goes to find help. he has to stop and ask 3 people before finally finding someone to help the character save his little brother.

       Yeah but that's pretty much it. that was made up fast. Really i'm not sure what would be a easy way to make my 'story' into a game, but we'll see.
