Choose Team Game Topic

The topic I'm going to focus on is healthy eating specifically on the calories needed on a daily basis.
I want the player to learn how to be bale to balance the calories but still be healthy and not going overboard with the amount needed.

Game Learning Topic

How will you use game mechanics - such as moving, scrolling, avoiding, collecting objects - to educate players about your learning topic?
This kind of mechanics such as scrolling avoiding and collecting object are going to be really necessary and will make the game entertaining for the player. I really think that this will make the player realize ht things that are necessary and what are not really necessary to the body. Keeping in mind that when people play while learning it is more probable that they are going to keep the facts and information in their head because thye are learning without noticing.

Learn To Design For Mobile

Describe two designs for your Side Scrolling Action game – one for mobile and one for console.
My game will have a scoring system which the player will have to collect things through the platform game. My console game will have more things that the person could do because of the controller.

Explain the differences between the two and why you made those decisions.

To be able to collect the artifacts on the game the player is going to have a very easy way to control the character. Ont he other hand the player playing on the console is going to have a harder controller because of the various more things you can do when a controller is bigger. If i did the same thing for both them then the controller for the phone would be too big and wouldn't be able to play it.

PlayStation 4

The new PlayStation has come! The graphics are amazing and they are expected to be released during the holidays. I am not really a big fan of PlayStation I'm more interested into the Xbox. I think that the PlayStation looks amazing. I wonder how much would it cost, I am expecting it would be expensive.

Black History Month Game

I created this game on Jesse Owens. It's Black History month and it needs to be acknowledged.

Jesse Owens

My game about Black History month will be based on the famous Olympic medalist James Cleveland also known as Jesse Owens. He was the youngest of ten children and he was raised very poorly. He was raised along with his siblings and  he went to Ohio State University. He won four gold medals on the Olympic games; 100 meters, 200 meters, the long jump and as part of the 4x100 meter relay team. He was a very successful man and he made history in the track world.
