Game App Design

Final App Blog

Introduction
This Term, we were put into groups to choose which app we should make. Me and my group chose to make a game app. Each group used a app design site to help create the app they're choosing. My group made our app using the site Code.org. Code.org is where you can code your app/game and design. Before we made it, we planned our game using the site called Coggle. I already posted my group's Coggle on my blog, you can scroll down and have a look at it. The game we chose to create was a scary, action, adventures and survival game. It was interesting because at the start of this term we were going to plan on doing a regular game, but ended up planning a scary game. How we ended up with a scary, adventures, action, survival game was by sharing our ideas and thoughts which we combined.  Hillary liked make-up, anime game and me and Selena was like "Yeh nah", then found out that hillary liked adventures/survival game, then we ended up with the game we ALL wanted.

The game we did, we didn't do that much, throughout the term when we started creating our app, we were only able to create the settings and the background.


Reflection
While we were coding the game, I've obviously learnt how to code, and different types of coding. I've learnt how to change screens to screens, adding images, and sounds, how to change the sounds and turning it off. I've done some coding and I was surprised what I just created. It was amazing but then, I looked at my groups planned and I thought to myself "that's no way near done" but at least we've done some coding. The reason why we couldn't finish it because, to be honest, we didn't know how to add videos and other things. Planning is easy ,but actual doing it is hard. We were just staring at it and just keep adding images in settings. 

My group has done some coding, well just me and Selena. Hillary was just giving us some ideas of what to code. She didn't really code that much, I think because we didn't talk that much. Sometimes, Hillary or Selena would be away from school and it's kinda hard coding with one away, but me and Selena worked well together when Hillary was away. 

We couldn't finish our game. I wasn't really happy because, some of the things we wanted for the game couldn't download. We also couldn't find some of the other instructions of how to code. It was pretty disappointing because, we really wanted to make this game just like how we planned it, but instead we only ended up with just the settings of the character and weapons and how to put the sound on and off. Next time, when we do something like this, we need to know how to code new things and look at other sites instead of one.\

Question:
Is planning worth it, if you don't know how to put it into action?
Are you ready to create an app?
Are you willing to make it?

Country living is good for young people

In my opinion, country living would be the best. You can have horses as a pet, and ride on them. Country living is also beautiful. I love the nature, it has lovely bright colours, but then once you find out that there is a whole different world, you would want to go there. Town is another lovely place. Well sort of. It's pretty loud and big, but there are tons of different things. Different stores, different food, different colours. At night you can almost see every single colour because there is a whole amount of light using power. You can also explore new things you haven't seen back home, and would love to take it back.

What is HART

In English, we had answer question about what H.A.R.T is. We are learning to identify what impact have they done? who was one of it's leader? what is HART? when was it formed? etc. I learned that my form teacher John Minto is famous. He was the national organizer in 1981. Still famous.

Thoth (God of the Moon, Magic and Writing) Ancient Egyptians

In Social Studies, My class 10Mn had to pick a God of Egypt (All different, cannot be the same) and we needed to do a poster about him/her.

In this poster, it tell's you information about the God I chose, Thoth.

He is the god of the moon, magic and writing. What I found interesting about him is that the tale books about Thoth can teach a person and led the person to become the most powerful magician in the world.
