Outlaw Riders

I created a new team page. Riders' page 

We haven't really talked about who has to do what with the game quiet yet. My partner, Rayce, is new so he's starting close to the beginning. We'll talk about what we're going to do but all I know is that I'm good with the organization of things and doing the research. So maybe he'll be the creative one between us because I'm having a little bit of a hard time to imagine my game and how the set is and everything is going to look like. I don't think Flash is going to be too much of a big deal to deal with.

Saving the Tassies

I got a partner today and I found a game name, Saving the Tassies!!!! I wrote down some game plan notes. I thought of some things to use in the game and figured out what I can do to make it an adventure game. Here's a link that I came across while searching google to make sure I didn't steal any organization names that already exist.

Gathering my ideas......

So today I played around with my wiki and added some more pics. I've been doing some research about the Tasmanian Devil Cancer and what the government is doing to help. I've found interesting facts and all, but now I'm thinking about how I could turn this into a fun and educational game that people would actually want to play and could get some public views. It's kind of hard for me to think of a genre to my game that wuld go along with the topic best. I kind of want to do an adventure game, since I'm definently not allowed to do a quizz game, but I'm not sure how to encorporate everything I want in it so that it'll be an adventure game. I've never dealt with stuff like this ever before, so I've got to try my best to be creative and come up with something good and enjoyable. So until then, I guess I'll brainstorm when I get the chance and do more research and I guess it'll all just come to me in a matter of time. If I get too stuck, then I'll ask around and get an opinion from different people that may help me out to make a game that some type of age group would like.

Done with the MiniGame

SOOO.... I didn't like the minigame too much at first. And I kept getting irratated at it. I was pretty aggitating. So it takes ALOT of patience. The tough part was really figuring out how to type of the code and everything so it understands exactly what you want done. I had a little bit of an arguement with the computer about where the brackets were supposed to go. But i ended up getting a hang of it and figuring out what was going on and what I needed to do. This wasn't too hard, but it'll help me out a good bit for my game now that I knida know how to do it.

First Time With Flash!

Goodness Gracious Golore!!! Flash has already gotten to me! It's something I probably won't be too good at because everything little thing has to be so precise! But I'll just have to have some of my classmates help me and read the tutorials over and over and over again! Once I get this down, then I'll be on my own and have to do all the codes to make up my own game. That'll be fun! Since I'm so complicated, I really can turn the simplest thing into something so complicated.

My game and this cancer

So I've decided to go all out on the Tasmanian Devil facial cancer. I've done some research and have some links to put on here. I think they're pretty interesting and help me with relating the cancer with the news right now. There are some organizations going on right now that are trying to help get rid of this cancer and help the wild population since it's drastically decreasing.

Tazmanian Devils In Australia!

Well, I think Tazmanian devils are cute! They got their name in the 19th century from the way they grunted while feating on a pray. But they are the target of a terrible diseade now known as Tazmanian Devil cancer. Its really contagious and effects many species. This has been the cause of a 70% decline in the population. Here's some pics and links!



This is how the disease effects the face. It creates tumors around the face and mouth, making it hard to eat, making the animal stave.....

Safely using the internet

Internet safety is extremely important. You NEVER under any circumstances want to put anything on the internet that could lead someone to you or get you in trouble. When posting pictures or videos on there, you never want to put something on there that could show someone where you live or where you tend to school. Leaving trails like that on the internet could let someone know how to find you and you don't want some types of people to be able to find you. Another thing is to not put something on the internet you wouldn't want your mama to see! And don't message people and tell them like where you live or anything because that person may not be who you think, remember that some people desguise themselves to be different ages, different peronalities, and even may put their opposite gender! You can't really trust the internet very well, so don't be too forward on the internet and you'll be fine!
