May the Twenty-First 2010

~It's coming down to the time when our games need to be finished. We've gotten so much further at this point than we were last year. Last year we tried to do videography in this class and do globaloria too. This year we mainly did globaloria. We got with our teammates and figured out what we needed to do. We didn't fool around with our tasks like we did last year. It also helped this year since we have teams of 3 instead of 2. It's too much work to only have 2 people working on a game. At this point if our game isn't finished, then it's not going to be finished. We're getting down to the wire and we have so many other things to do on top of this. We are going to work as hard as we can to get evertything completed, but I guess we'll have to make due with what we have. We're only lacking a part of the penguin scene and part of the coal scene. I finished my part of the game which is the house scene. I think our team has created a really great game. I think our game reflects the effort we put into it. I'm excited to see everyone else's completed game. I think their's will be really great too. We still need to set a date when we can all stay after school and practice our presentations. Last year CEKeener and I worked really hard on our presentation and I think it turned out great. All of the presentations went really well. I hope they go that well this year. It's a bittersweet feeling to know that I only have a few days left in high school. It disappoints me that because of my health problems I wasn't able to come to school more often. I'm excited to get the presentations over with and then we can celebrate the hard work we put into creating these great games.~

May The Nineteenth 2010

~I didn't get to post a blog two times last week. I only got to post one time. I added all of our team progress together into one file. That's what I've been doing for a while. It's not a hard thing to do, but it's very time-consuming. I think tomorrow I'll start on the powerpoint. Today I added the rest of my team's progress into the game file. We're almost finished with our game. There are still some things that need to be done in the coal and penguin parts of our game. Once those parts are finished, I can add them into the final game file and we'll be finished.~

May the Twelfth 2010

~Today I am going to continue merging the files for our game. It's not really hard to merge the files, it's just really time consuming. I think our game will be finished in time, if not I think it will be close to being done. I'm excited because it's finally coming together to show how hard we've worked throughout this year.~

May the Seventh 2010

~Today I finished putting our game together. I added the title screen and the about screen into our game. I'm waiting for the rest of our game to get finished. Once my team members are finished with the rest of the game, then we can add it into my part of the game. It's exciting to see how it's all coming out.~

May the Fourth 2010

~Today I am going to finish making the facts screen for our game. We're getting down to the time when our games need to be finished. My team needs to get together and add all of the contents of our game into one file. I went on the WIKI and got some of the game files on our team page and put them into the game. I uploaded the latest file of our game onto my team page.~

April the Thirtieth 2010

~I was excited on Monday because I found out that a photo I had taken is going to be published in the "Best Photography of 2010" book. My biography will also be in the book. I haven't been to school for a while. I've been really sick. It's good to be back and now I'm ready to continue working on our game. Today we are going to finish presenting our game progress. I don't know which teams have gone yet, because I wasn't here.~

April the Twenty-Sixth 2010

~Today I uploaded a "Facts Screen" for our game. Our players need to know the reason for our game. We want to teach them good habits that will help the environment. If children learn habits early in life, the habits will more than likely stay with them. Wednesday Mrs. Neal is going to have each team present to the class what we have completed so far. I think my team is on the right track. I think we will have a nice game by the end of the year. I'm excited to see what all the other teams have completed.~
