I feel that Globaloria has been a good experience so far. I enjoy playing games so learning how to make them has been interesting and fun. Working in flash was kind of hard at first, but once I learned, it has been enjoyable. Globaloria is a great experience, and I think I want a second year.
My group, The Head Chix In Charge, has chosen to make a game about healthy foods. It's a race, and the larger unhealthy kid is trying to collect healthy foods and avoid the unhealthy foods. If they collect enough healthy food, they reach the finish line. For reaching the finish line, they are rewarded with a game of Family Food (like Family Feud). They are then asked questions about food, and they can earn bonus time for the next race.
So far in Globaloria, we have worked in flash with tracing and making game clips, got in groups, made paper prototypes for our games, did surveys, blogged, had visitors, and learned many things we didn't know. We learned more about HTML codes.
THE SNOW <333
It has been great, because we all enjoy days off of school.. but it has made Globaloria a little harder because we have gotten behind. The snow though is beautiful, and fun to play in. It has helped some, because we need breaks sometimes, but it is taking time from our games and Globaloria plans.. other than that, I love snowwwwwww. :D
