!Globaloria!

I'm 12 years old and a student at East Austin College Prep Academy. I have been in Globaloria all school year. Globaloria is about working in flash and making a game that is about world causes like pollution and health. My group game is about pollution and has been about the effects about pollutions and how it is harming the world. Globaloria is about working in flash and how it would help someone like me to make a game about the economy and living organisms.
Working in flash is about drawing levels for our game and adding animation and navigation and much more. Adding navigation is hard to work in because there is a lot of codes and information to handle and use in it for it to work. That's what globaloria is all about.

Working in Flash

The topic in flash was adding navigation, It was very confusing and interesting to me because it was hard to follow along with the teacher and get our stops in and our navigation. Adding navigation is complicated to learn and add to flash pages. Adding the navigation was hard to do to the button like frame labels and instants names. It was fun and hard to do because drawing in flash is creative and making a game is too, while doing the work for it all to happen is very frustrating and confusing to understand. Adding navigation codes are easy to find and paste while getting them to work for your game is complicated and making sure you have the right code while trying to follow along with the teacher. Following along with the teacher is hard because working in flash can get you lost easily and make you fall way behind. This topic we worked on was interesting with all the navigation we had to put in. My flash file didn't come out the way it was supposed to my game didn't stop for the buttons to be pressed to proceed to the next scene in which was our assignment.
working in flash was a great thing of someone to learn how to do in such short time but it was fun because we will be making our own game.
