Underwater Challenge!

Kia ora, this is my game. Our class has been going to Tonui Colab for 4 weeks. There we learnt new concepts, game development, and learnt about makecode arcade all in a collaborative environment. There we were split into 2 groups; rotating between 2 rooms. With the time split in half we spent 1 hour each week doing challenges and the other hour coding our games. 

On scratch we made our games. Designing the background and the player, I struggled to find a player relative to the game. Finally, after that and many other steps including coding on scratch, we ended with a completed game. I learnt a lot of new things doing this exercise. Unfortunately, we only had four sessions to build our games, they could have been better.

The concept of my game is set under water. On the top of my game there is bubbles; at the bottom is seaweed. With black ”rocks”  you have to jump on you have on to complete the game, collecting the little fish on the way.

What would you do if you made your game? What colour would your background be?

I hope you enjoy my game, click the link below to play -

Can You Win?

In class, we were learning about making a game to teach younger kids about maori. Enjoying doing this activity, I thought it was a cool opportunity to teach other students something. This post and game was aimed at younger kids. Unfortunately, you might not learn as much because it is at an easier level.

Sarah and I created the game on scratch, using lots of different blocks to code. Finding it easy to find music to put in the background when you get it right or wrong. With pixel I created the bird and Sarah created the butterfly. In a process, we upload pictures then put colour on top of the original colour to make it look better. After that we made the images png. Finally, after a few more steps we had completed our game. I hope you enjoy it, Good Luck!

Blue Bird!

In class during manaiakalani, we started designing a character for our game. We created these characters on app called piskel. This bird is blue, white, and yellow with a black outline. Struggling to make the outline a bird shape, I spent more time trying. After many tries this was the best outcome. I hope you can branch of my idea. 

Unicorn!

Today in class, we started using piskel. Piskel is an online app that you can use  create characters like mine or moving images for free. Using this app we had to design a character for a later project. My idea was a unicorn that pink, white, and grey. I hope you can branch of my ideas to create your own.
