My Gaming Habits

What type of games do you enjoy playing?

I enjoy playing adventure games and strategy games , because I like to have a challenge involving solving puzzles and making to a certain place in a certain amount of time.

What are the titles?

I play Super Mario Sunshine on the Gamecube, Brain Age on the Nintendo DS, and some fighting games like, Mortal Combat and War games like Call of Duty.

When did you begin playing games? On what system?

I don't exactly remember, I guess because I started at a young age.

I started playing games on the Super Nintendo and the Nintendo 64.

Do your parents/guardians limit the amount of time you play?

No, because I don't go game crazy and play for more than an hour and a half every other day.

Do you think it's possible to get completely addicted to video games?

I do think that it's possible. I don't know why exactly I think that, but I do. I suppose I think that because, I feel that you can get addicted to anything.

Gamification, Game Design, or Game Mechanics- What????

What do you learn in Globaloria?

I learn how to work in Flash and how to create animations. It also teaches us about Game Design and how to look for things in games pertaining topic and graphics.

5 Skills I have learned in Globaloria.

1) How to use Flash.

2) How to properly use a computer.

3) How to plan out a game.

4) How to use codes off of the Wiki.

5) How to present a game.

How can you use these skills learned from Globaloria in a future job?

I could use the skill of learning to type correctly, presenting ideas, and planning out projects ahead of time and then taking the time to follow through with them.

Gamification: Means adding extras that weren't there before like, awarding badges, adding a point system and even adding a highscore page.

Game Design: Is what the game hangs on. Is the skeleton of the game. Also encompasses all aspects of the original game idea.

Game Mechanics: How the player interacts with the game. What they hear and see during the process of playing the game. Also how the game works (arrow keys, mouse, keyboard, ect..)

About My Topic

My topic is about Greek Mythology.

This topic interests me most because: A lot of Greek architecture have stories behind it that involve Greek gods or goddesses. These stories help put the history behind the building, like when it was built or even why. Also it interests me because of how long these buildings have been around, and by the way weather works a lot of the building has been eroded. I'm also interested in this because, instead of having high tech things in these buildings , they are just made out of stone.

I want people to learn about the history behind these buildings down to the stone that it was made out of and how they differ from the buildings we have today. I also want people to learn about how the Greek gods and goddesses tie into these buildings.

This topic needs to be recognized because: There aren't many people who know about Greek architecture or even Greek history, a lot of our words come from Greek roots and also Latin roots.

This is why I feel that people should learn more about this topic.
