My Research








I did some research on Lewis and Clark and learned a lot about them.








Meriwether Lewis:


Born August 18, 1774, Meriwether Lewis was only 29 years old when he was asked by President Thomas Jefferson to head the expedition. Lewis accepted and, in turn, asked his army friend, William Clark, to act as the expedition's captain.


William Clark:


Born August 1, 1770, Clark was the youngest of six sons and the youngest brother of George Rogers Clark, the hero of the American Revolution in the West. He was 33 years old when asked by Meriwether Lewis to help head the expedition.


Through a website, which I will put in a link right here, I learned enough information about them that I can shape the game based on the information. I learned about how the journey started, how the journey went, what they did, how, how they met Sacajawea, and how it ended. I hope I can learn more soon. Oodbyegay!

What I've done so far blog (Iay amay adsay aboutay hetay Pellingsay Eebay ecausebay Iay ostlay. Iay suallyuay inway.)

So far I've gotten to the title screen and finished the loading screen. I'm working on adding sound to the title screen so it looks cooler. When it comes down to it, I've just started on the process of creating the game into it's true form. My units have been going well. I've made quite a number of buttons and animations. Right now I'm on the Adding Sound unit and I can't figure out what sound to put on the title screen. It's hard to find the right sound for people like me. I hope we can win the competition at the end of the year because I'm really getting down to business on our game. Well, good luck to everybody! (Boil'em Mash'em Stick'em in a stew. POTATOES!)

Adding Navigation


Good day mate! I'm so close to the halfway point on our game but I want to take my time and make it awesome. I've finished the Adding Navigation assignments and I'm moving on to Adding Animation... which I've already almost completed. I learned how to create buttons to move from screen to screen and it really isn't that hard. I've added motion tweening to my game and that's not hard either once you get the hang of it. Oh well, I hope everyone does ok. Oodbyegay!

Drawing In Flash


Ellohay! I am still here and doing great! I have just finished my Drawing In Flash assignments and starting in my Adding Interaction assignments. I have learned how to trace using Flash and use frames and keyframes. It is very fun and the tutorials help... trust me.I love using the brush tool because it's fun and I'm used to it. The smoothing on the brush is very fun to use and it makes everything a whole lot easier on me when I'm drawing. Flash is confusing and like I said earlier... tutorials help. So, I wish you all good luck. Bye! Go, Parkour!

Citizen's Rights

Iay ikelay Avenray Ennedykay! He'ssay a eerleaderchay. If you can understand Pig Latin, you can read everything that I write. Hello! I want to talk about citizen's rights today. It only takes one person to change the world. Bill Gates did it, Rosa Parks did it, and so many others did it. It would be cool if the same happened for every problem in the world. Then everything would be perfect, too bad it can't. If only gas was cheaper... (sigh). ) Oh well. I hope everyone makes a difference and has a good day! Bye!

Ritneyay umpedday emay astlay Ridfay... Iay inkthay. Tiay uckssay, utbay Iay otgay veroay tiay. So far in Globaloria, I've learn't how to make things move and appear, stretch and disappear, shrink and reappear, and so forth. It's very fun and I'm looking forward to the competition. Ogay Lipfay Amerascay!I've also learned how to design in Flash using smoothing and the other tools like the brush. It's just awesome! And the cool part about the smoothing is that when it's on 100, it looks kinda like Chinese or Japanese writing so I can make it look culturalistic, if that's a such word. Oh well, the last thing I want to say is... Globaloria Rules!

I otgay a ateday! Erhay amenay siay Ritneybay. He'ssay wesomeaay. Nevermind that, today I want to talk about my team's game. We are planning the game and have just finished the paper prototype. It looks pretty good and is being perfected, but I need to see what people learn from it. I guess that they are learning that everyone has their own rights to do the same thing as Lewis and Clark. It also shows how much work they really did on their journey. If it wasn't for rights, we'd all be dead. It's as simple as that. We should all be thankful for rights, even if they aren't all great. Our game is also teaching kids about who Lewis and Clark were in case anyone doesn't know. Our game connects to civics because it is about history. History and civics have a close relationship, like butter and toast, it takes history to make history I think. It will be awesome! Oh well, see ya!

Game that I played blog oredbay saay rapcay anmay... not really.


I played some game on Ms. Barker's blog and learned that it depends on the situation who is right and who is wrong. I was playing as someone who was helping the justice by solving the case in court. Not much to say, it was fun and I learned a lot. I am glad to be in Gloabaloria and I hope everyone has a good weekend. Bye! I eednay aay ateday.

Game Idea for The Dancing Goombas of Doom!!!!! oday ouyay eakspay igpay atinlay?


Hello! Ellohay! I have learned to speak Pig Latin and I am good at it! It's very fun and I might use it in the game... maybe. But that's beside the point, I want to talk about our game today. We are going to call it, "Lewis and Clark: The Great Journey" and it will be about Lewis and Clark's adventure with Sacajawea across the early United States. We will research the journey and figure out what the levels will be like so the game will be very similar and realisticly close to the actual trek. It will be awesome and I hope it works great. Good luck everybody! Oodgay ucklay verybodyay!

Civics


I chose two blogs that discuss different rights and responsbilities. The Plucked Chicken's blog that I read was discussing concealed carry licenses and what is the reasons behind it. It sounded really good and is the kind of civics blog for me. Then, there's the blog that talks about educational rights. The guy who talked about education was discussing different rights students have and how they can use them, and something about a guy who's been working with the rights of education for 17 years. They both are good and both discuss different rights, which is why I picked them. Oh well, good luck everybody!

Awesome

Yo! Globaloria is pretty fun, and I can't wait 'til we finish. I've had to catch up on some of my work because of Gifted, but otherwise I'm having a good time. I'm hoping to make a game as good as those games on Y8 and Andkon, which would be a great experience to me. I've always played video games and wondered how they did it and how they created it. I guess this is my way of finding out. I'd best finish my work, otherwise I might have a C. Best of luck to you all!

I'm on a boat

Hello! I'm on a boat!!!!! Nevermind that. Today, I want to talk about Internet safety. The only reason people are afraid of the Internet is because it is used for crimes half the time. People get on chat rooms and meet with people so they can murder them. But it can be used for other purposes. It's just like the force... it can be used for good, or for evil. The Internet doesn't have to be feared, you can use it for the greater good of mankind. It makes a huge difference what you choose to do with the Internet. To prove it, I'm putting a link on here that takes you to the WV Internet safety site. See you in my next blog! www.wvcybersafety.org

Going Mad


I'm starting to lose my mind... my sanity is taking the midnight train to nowhere. That or I'm just hyper. Playing games in Globaloria is pretty fun. Havin' a blog isn't as bad as I thought it would be. Still, sometimes I can't keep up because I'm having problems with my assignment and I can't figure out what to do. Being a student has it's responsibilities and it's limits. We students have to do homework, do chores at home, and keep up with our classes to name a few. I'm just saying, we have quite a number of things to do and sometimes, those things get in the way. Not to mention we have to obey the rules. Anyways, I'm having fun in Globaloria and I hope it gets better. Oh, and remember 9/11!

Yo

My first blog post on here. Hopefully, I can create a game where you can choose what happens based on what you do. My games will definitely have action and fighting. A selection of weapons will be put and I might make cheat codes just for fun. All of this I hope to expect in Globaloria.
