Bullseye-The good game

Name of the game that taught you the MOST about its learning topic: Bullseye

What social issue or educational topic does the game explore? Trigonometry and trajectory

What can you learn from this game? how force and angle can affect the flight of an object

What game genre is it? Do you think this genre is a good choice for creating a learning game? Why or why not?  It is a sports game and it helps sports oriented people understand math

Design Analysis (Does it look good? Does it clearly illustrate the issue or learning concept?) I looks good with good animation

Usability Analysis (Is it clear what you need to do as a player? Does it work well?) The control for the bow is sloppy but the rest plays fine

Suggestions for improvement. How would you change the gameplay to make the learning and play experience work together better? If there was a better way to pull the bow back from away from the edge of the screen

List 2-3 things that you would like to learn how to do (in terms of functionality, design or content) It has shown me a different style of art for flash, with a better quality of design

Almost the whole class is finished with the aesthetics of their pages. Now we will move into actionscript. Fun Fun Fun.

Cracking the html

I haven't had too much experience with coding, other than basics with forum posts and signature creators. I'm trying my best to keep ahead of the class enough to help them. Most of my activity on the wiki is from a different location than my home school. Oh well gotta work. Until next time...

Day 7, no progress

Other than creating Gmail accounts for half the class, my progress is minimal at best. I'm trying not to let myself get to far ahead of the class. This is all that I will be posting until the rest of the group catches up.
