Prezi Game Design Walkthrough Reflection

My prezi described the steps on how to make a game, and how I made my game. Prezi is similar to Powerpoint where you create a presentation, but instead of having separate slides, there is one big picture and the screen zooms in to certain places. Prezi how many different backgrounds and templates to choose from to match your presentation. Prezi also looks cooler than Powerpoint because of the big picture and the zooming in that it can do. Some of the challenges of using Prezi for me was finding the information to write in the slides, typing all the words in, then presenting it. To make my Prezi better, I would add more pictures to make my presentation more interesting. Prezi would be useful for presenting a book report in English class.

Animoto video game trailer


section2 animototrailer

For our trailer project, we had to make a trailer of one of our gamestar games using animoto. Animoto is a website that allows you to make videos or trailers by uploading videos, pictures, or tying in titles. Animoto is a good tool because it allows you to do many things to your trailer, can upload pictures and videos very fast, and lots of themes and songs to choose from. The three challenging parts about making my trailer was thinking about what to put in the trailer, taking all the videos and photos of the game, and making the video interesting. Making a presentation that only has pictures and making a video for history. If I could change my game trailer, I would add more scenes from the game, more videos, and more text.

Educational Game

Rin need to enjoy hard games. To help him do that, I made a game that was hard and challenging but with lots of lives. There is a walkthrough on how to beat the game, goals to win each game, there are platform & flat stages, there is a lot of space. If I had more time to work on this game, I would make the game more complicated with more space.      https://gamestarmechanic.com/game/player/1517535

Game Design with Gamestar Mechanic

When I created this game on Gamestar Mechanic, I wanted to make it hard to beat. But, when I actually played it, it wasn't as hard as I expected to be. My game has a sprite that is harder to move and also has a lot of enemies and they all fire. The starting point in the game is the only safe place in the game so once you move out of that space you can get hit. I hope you enjoy my game.

Design Thinking - Redesigning the Gift Giving Experience

Tiffany wants to have a good relationship with her mom but doesn't have alot of money. She could use the money she had, to see if she can win a lottery ticket and use the money to either buy her a gift or give her the money. I made a prototype of a lottery ticket and some money. If I had more time, I would make more gift options for her.
