Final Thoughts

Today is not only my last day of high school, but the last day of Globaloria and I must say that it has been an interesting time. I had no idea a class like this was out there until I heard about it last year. It's a very nice idea although slightly confusing at times. I really enjoyed getting to play with flash and making animations. It's something I've been interested in and have never had a chance to do. I never thought I could be doing anything like this, but I've made a couple of cute animations.
I feel like I've kind of failed though. I wasn't able to finish the game we spent so long planning about, or even a nice looking functional game demo. I know if I worked harder I would have been able to do it, but what I've put forth I'll have to deal with. It's not very good and I'm sorry I didn't work harder. If I had to go another year of school though I would take this class and do better I think.
I really enjoyed my teacher, my classmates, and the work. I just hope every thing will go smoothly next year. :'3

Updates

My teacher went over some things that we needed to do to bring our grades up, but I had every thing updated and what not so I'm ok for this class. I worked with the game demo a little while, but I still can't figure out how to get those stupid buttons working on 2.0. I've watched the videos a thousand times and have done every thing the person told me to do, but they just aren't working. I guess I'll leave this class being one pro button maker, but a very lousy navigator. Can't win them all I guess.

Visitors!!

On Friday some people from Globaloria came by to talk to us about our games. They taught us a little bit more about what civics are, which was really helpful, but they really didn't help with anything technical. They really should have came at the begining of the year so they could have shown us examples sooner. I don't think our game has much do with what they wanted them to do.
On Monday Ramey Barker came to talk to us. He mostly went over censorship and not getting frustrated or anything, but it was an interesting talk.

Focusing...

So after a whole eight days off from school I'm slowly picking back up on work. I'm pretty sure I didn't get any blog posts published last week which means I'm going to have to work double hard to bring every thing up.
To bring anyone up to pace with what's happening we finished our game demo in 3.0, but the back button wouldn't work. Having no where else to go we got a hold of the globaloria help desk and showed them what was going on whith it while I successfully managed to put sound on it. They got back to us and said they could fix it, but it would be a lot easier to just publish it in 2.0 and work on fixing it there, so here I am, working on recoding buttons that could have easily been done a long time ago. There's nothing I can do but keep working on it and hopefully get every thing done in time. I really hope I won't have any trouble with 2.0....
