Final Project Link

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/42927942/

I knew I wanted the game to be time based with the player avoiding obstacles. When I saw that there was a command to bounce off the edges I realized I wanted to make a controllable sprite with bouncing obstacles. When I worked on the game I realized that the circles would and would sometimes not return to their original spot. To combat this I rewrote the command and started with a
"go to x,y." I tested the game by playing it and occasionally removing the obstacles if the levels were too hard for me to pass. It worked as I intended however the original winning and losing sounds I wanted did not work. I was most proud of using the change color aspect command because I believe it makes the sprites look interesting and therefore gives the game more appeal. I was slightly disappointed with how easy the first level was but I feel that the game picks up enough to justify it.

Final Unit Project for Scratch

My project has a sprite that can be moved in all four directions while having to avoid objects bouncing around the screen. Each second it survives is a point. I would use a square sprite with circles bouncing around the screen. I would make the background black at first and change as time went on to make the level harder. ie swapping colors. To win you must survive two minutes. There will be three levels, with a new one appearing every 30 seconds. A new level will have more circles with different speeds. To make the levels harder, the background may flash and the sprites may change color to confuse the player in addition to the speed and number of obstacles being increased.

Alphabet Game


Alphabet Game Review

1. This game function very similar to mine. Letters A-J and clicking on them revealed a picture that started with that letter, (C = cake.) Their project also gave a speech bubble that stated the word.
2. This game worked by pressing the letter you wanted to see through the letter H. It was very interesting but, pressing the buttons out of order caused the game to mess up.

Scenes

The stage can have scripts for motion like sprites. Sprites initiate through event blocks. Scene changes are needed in stories, movies, and even slideshows. By looking at other classmates' projects I saw that their projects were similar in that they were different backgrounds pertaining to the sprite.
