Final Project


The game I created for my final project is a "Scrolling" game. I feel I deserve anything less than a "B+" or higher. I've really, I mean really, tried my best to do this game and get it done in the matter of time. It was a lot of hard work. I did miss a couple of things that were suppose to be in my game, but it was little tiny details. I didn't add an extra room....But overall I did the best of my ability during busy weeks. A "B" is a average grade, though my work done to this game would be above average :-) It's only fair. My overall course was okay. I think that game design is meant for some people but I'm better off with Web Design lol. Most of my games were simple, but what can I say??? It's difficult to learn about sprites, objects, events, controls, and alot of technical game terms. From this course I've learned you have to motivated to actually have some great work behind what you do. Maybe if I strongly had a desire for game design, my games would be A-1 but I don't really fit well in creating my own games. It's a fun process once you've completed your game, it;s like -->HEY I MADE THAT, REALLY? NEVER THOUGHT IT WAS POSSIBLE! First day advice, BE EXCITED ON WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO LEARN! HAVE FUN AND MAKE THE BEST OF IT!

Assignment4


THIS GAME WAS THE FUNNEST GAME WE HAVE EVER MADE THIS SEMESTER, IN MY OPINION. IT IS A PLATFORM GAME AND THE OBJECTIVE OF MY GAME IS TO GO THROUGH EACH ROOM AND COLLECT BLUEBERRIES. FOR MY GAME I'VE USED A GIRL CHARACTER IN A GREEN DRESS TO KEEP UP WITH THE FLOW OF THE GAME. THE ATMOSPHERE OF MY GAME IS IN THE WOODS, AND SHE LIVES IN A HOUSE CLOSE BY. I GUESS YOU COULD SAY THAT SHE HAS HER ON LAND, AND SHE LOVE BLUEBERRIES. TO PLAY THE GAME YOU USE THE ARROW KEYS TO JUMP UP OR DOWN ON FLOWERS, GRASS, MUSHROOMS, ETC TO COLLECT A BLUEBERRY, AND MAKE IT TO THE END. I HAVE USED A VARIETY OF COLORS FOR THIS GAME BECAUSE THE BACKGROUND IS MOSTLY GREEN. THIS GAME EXPERIENCE WAS A LITTLE DIFFICULT BECAUSE MY COMPUTER WAS ACTING UP SO I HAD TO SAVE AND RESAVE EVERYTHING TO A FLASHDRIVE AND GO BACK AND FOURTH WITH IT TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IN THE GAME WORKED APPROPRIATELY. THE FASTEST PART WAS FINDING MY MUSIC, AND SOUND EFFECTS. THAT WAS FAR MOST THE EASIEST PART BECAUSE ANY MUSIC CAN FIT IN THE WILD.!

1.) SUPER MARIO GALAXY
2.) SUPER MARIO ADVANCE 2
3.) SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2
4.) SUPER MARIO LAND 2: 6 GOLDEN COINS
5.) SONIC ADVANCE

In the game Super Mario Galaxy it's an gravity-defying adventure. He explore new worlds, get a boost with exciting new power-ups, and traverse the cosmos like never before.

In the game Super Mario Advance 2, the game takes place across the colorful expanse of Dinosaur Island. The dinosaur the island is named after is of course Yoshi who appears in the game as your fearless sidekick, capable of swallowing enemies whole among other unique abilities.


In the game Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Sonic runs and jumps his way through a series of increasingly tricky platform and enemy-strewn environments, collecting rings as he goes.

Super Mario Land:6 Golden Coins objective is to reach the end of a level, defeating or avoiding enemies while doing so. The enemies include several returning enemies from the Mario series, such as the Goomba and the Koopa, and introduces several new enemies.

Sonic Advance is a fun game. The player must play through 6 normal zones, followed by the X-Zone and the Moon Zone. The game features four playable characters; Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy. Each character has a special ability.

Assignment3


THE ENTIRE PROCESS OF THIS GAME TO ME WAS IRRITATING. FOR SOME REASON, THIS TIME OF MAKING THE GAME, I DIDN'T HAVE THE MMOTIVATION TO ACTUALLY WANT TO MAKE THE GAME. IT WAS HARD TO THINK OF AN IDEAL GAME BECAUSE SOMETHING HAS TO SHOOT OUT OF YOUR MAIN CHARACTER/OBJECT AND THE SCREEN HAS TO MOVE VERTICALLY OR HORIZONTALLY. ONCE I FINALLY FIGURED OUT THE IDEA, I INSTANTLY KNEW WHAT CHARACTERS I WAS GOING TO CHOOSE. I'VE CHOSEN TWO CHARACTERRS FROM SHREK THE MOVIE. THE GINGERBREAD MAN AND LORD FARQUAD. I THOUGHT IT WILL BE COOL FOR THE GINGERBREAD MAN TO GET A LITTLE REVENGE ON FARQUAD AND KNOCK HIM OUT WITH GUM DROPS.! THE MOST DIFFICULT PART OF CREATING THIS GAME WAS FINDING THE RIGHT BACKGROUND. IT WAS BEST TO KEEP YOUR BACKGROUND IMAGE PLAIN OR SIMPLE BECAUSE TOO MUCH DETAIL ACHES THE EYE AND IRRITATING TO PLAY THE GAME. ALL IN ALL FOR A BEGINNER I FEEL I'VE DONE A PRETTY GOOD JOB.

-This game is very bright and simple. The objective of this game is to move the Gingerbread Man around and knock out Lord Farquad with gum drops.! You will be able to move the Ginger Man by using the left, right, up, and down keys on the keyboard, and you shoot the gum drops by tapping the space bar. Good Luck & Have Fun.!

Fairly Odd Parents Maze Game


I HAVE CREATED A MAZE GAME BASED AROUND THE FAIRLY ODD PARENTS. THIS WAS A CHALLENGE FOR ME BECAUSE ONCE AGAIN, I DO NOT LIKE GAME DESIGN AND I WASN'T UP TO DO IT, OR UP TO COMPLETING THE ASSIGNMENT. FOR MY GAME I HAVE GOTTEN A FAIRLY ODD PARENTS SPRITE LAYOUT. I HAD TO INDIVIDUALLY CROP EACH SPRITE TO USE THEM FOR MY GAME. I CROPPED THEM IN MICROSOFT PUBLISHER, IT WAS TRICKY TO DO THAT BECAUSE I DID TERRIBLE CROPPING THE FIRST TIME AND BACKGROUND COLOR OF GREEN WAS IN MY CROPPED PICTURES, SO I HAD TO START ALL THE WAY OVER. THE HARDEST PART OF CREATING THIS GAME WAS KNOWING WHAT ALL THE EVENTS MEANT AND WHAT TO DO WITH EACH DIFFERENT OBJECTS. SETTING THE LIVES ON MY GAME WAS HARD. I ALSO HAD A PROBLEM WITH MAKING MY ENEMIS SWING AROUND ONCE THEY COLLIDED WITH THE WALL. THE FUNNEST PART OF CREATING THIS GAME WAS FINDING MY MUSIC. I LOVE THE THEME SONG OF THE TV SHOW "FAIRLY ODD PARENTS" SO LOADING IT INTO GAMEMAKER WAS AWESOME. OVERALL MY GAME TURNED OUT EXCELLENT FOR AN BEGINNER.!!!!

Maze Game



The five popular maze games I found were all similar to the origninal maze game "PAC MAN". They are called:

1.)Slac Man
2.)Baby Pac Man
3.)8 Bit Rocket Pumpkin Man
4.)The Simpsons
5.)Burger Man Pac Man

all of these games were created by PAC MAN. All games on "thepacmangames.com" are copyrighted or trademarked by their respective owners or authors.In Slac Man there are 3 characters the teacher, student 1(Bully), and student 2 (Nerd). In this game you have to control the slack man to eat all the donuts before the teacher awakes and gives him a slackin'.... In the game baby pac man you follow the maze to collect points. You get points by collecting diapers, bottles, and etc. In game numbers 3 and 4 the are very similar to the original pac man but instead you use pumpkins, and the Simpson characters insteard of ghost and fruits. In burger man pac man you have to eat the buger before time is up, and make your way to cheeseburgers.


Pac Man games were first created and made in Japan in the year 1980.
