Imagine Team Game

We are making this game for kids ages 9-13 because they start to understand more about legal services. I thinks this is a good age group because younger kids care more about toys and having fun. I don't just want to make this game for Mexican immigrants but for all immigrants in the United States that don't have paper. I want this game about immigrants and the problems they face. I also want this game to have information what some legal services that people face here in the United States.Our game is going to be made in Laredo, Texas. Laredo has immigration officers because they are next to the boarder, but there has been immigrants that lived there for years, but have never broken the law. They fear deportations and they only work to put food in the table for their family.The game is going to be a game where you have to make smart decisions where you go too or do.We choose d American Gateways too be our organization for our game because many of us have parents that don't have legal documents.

Legal Services

American Gateways
Texas Fair Defense Project

The TFDP organization helps poor who cannot afford commercial bond feeds that works here in Austin, Texas. The american gateways organization helps immigrants to make their dreams come true. They help the groups of ages 16 to 31 and they provided them with legal services.The crime victims first organization helps victims providing them with right enforcement, and quality education.This organizations help out people that have been a victim of crime and immigrant to make their dream come true. These organizations help people out in their needs or offer them protection after they were a victim.

First Game Idea

Bone Shaker
This week we have been searching for organizations to make a game with the organizations mission. The organization that I liked the most was bone shaker because kids can stay fit by playing sports or just in the play ground. They don't need to do special work outs that often is not one of those organizations were you have to eat healthy foods each time you eat.
  The way I would make a game for this organization is have a character that is obese but he joins this organization and start to loss weight. He plays soccer with friends he makes.He decides he is going to run a marathon for him self to do a benefit for him self. After a year he was in the organization and did out activities out side the club he was skinny and join his schools soccer team.

I live here, I give here websites

Colorado River

American gateways
I like this topic because am a Hispanic and I want to do a game were they understand why us Hispanics need to study and have a good job

Austin Zoo
In some zoos they mistreat the animals so I want to make a game were we need to protect the animals.

Active Life hq
The United States is the country with more people  being overweight.

Austin Community College
Helps students out that can't afford to go to a university and acc helps them with scholarships and to be accepted into a university easier.

Animal Trustess
Animals are a banded left to buy and  I thinks it is not right for people to do that because they are still living animals.

Bone Shaker
I thinks this would be a good topic to a game on because many kids are obese and are at a higher risk too get sick.I like being active playing soccer with my friends.

Bgc Austin

Mini Game

This mini game has been the best one I done. I made it in soccer because I love to play soccer. I also made the game a little more challenging so you won't get so many points.I made a line so when you get to close to were the soccer ball appears it throws you back from where you started. My game has two decoys in the bottom so you have to dodge them to get points.If you touch them you  loss points.I also like that I added a start page to play the game. This helps me understand that I can make a game in a week so I have too be able to finish my own game that I will make later.

Play to Learn Part 2

What I learn from this games is, if you want a fun and educating game I think action would be the best genre. For example the game math sports its a fun game but at the same time your learning math and also to see how fast you can solve the equation. The game features that stood out I think were that in the game flood escape is that after the first level the character jumps higher and falls down slower also what I like about some games were that they had a movie clip or story that goes with the game. Another thing that I like where that the character move his feet on two of the games that I play. One questions that I have for the creators is what was their first idea for their game and how they made it better as they thought of new ideas?

Present your hidden object game

My learning topic of my game is history, I want the player to learn the weapons use in the civil war and the items. That's the most important thing for me for the player to learn. I research the uniforms use in the war, the weapons, and ships. I learn that at first the confederate side didn't have an official uniform, and many were sometimes seen as the enemy because they would wear navy blue clothes.The unions official uniform was a navy blue color that's why confederate army soldiers who wore navy blue clothes were seen as the enemy.The idea that will make this game fun is the objects are hidden pretty good and one moves through out the screen. Before I made the complete game my first ideas were good but I found better ways to make the game  more challenging.One of my first ideas was to have a ship in the ocean, but then I decide it would be better without it because it would take to much time to draw and take to much space.
        I think the best game ingredients for me was the timer.The timer was very helpful because they would have to make the best effort to find the objects before the time ran out.
        For me the most difficult part of the game was the timer going to the lose screen and staying there. The problem was that the time ran out and go to the lose screen then after a couple of seconds it would go to the win screen.I couldn't over come the problem even after I move the layers around and check the code for errors.It frustrate me because it would keep on changing screens.
        The  best features of my game are the clouds moving form side to side.It was very simple because I only needed to create a motion tween for it to move.I also think one of my best features is that the objects are camouflage with the background so they are hard to see.
