Designing a Game

Above - Gamefroot Logo
In our DGM class we have been creating platform games on a game creator called Gamefroot, Gamefroot is a 3 - D game Creator. Good things about this game creator is that you can go between, editing and playing your game.
The three things we are working on are Art, Characters and Game play. 

Art Work
The art I have chosen to go with is the desert (Thar) scene. It wanted to create a effect that the character is running through a desert trying to find a cross. I added a desert background and golden pathways (Terrain) to give it an adventurous feel 

Characters/props
My character is a guy with a bandanna, he has to trek through the Thar desert and over come various obstacles. And he has to find the cross and retrieve it for the man. 

Game-play
The aim of the game is that, The character has to overcome a series of challenges and reach all of the tomb riders hideouts to try and find and retrieve the cross for the man. In lvl 1 the player has to trek through the desert go across a pit but the man escapes

Photoshop Photo manipulation bulb water - What is a Pixel

Water wave in light-bulb

I used images off Google Images 
I manipulated a water wave into a light bulb on Photoshop
I decided to manipulate more that one image and try different things like the light bulb and the water

For Photoshop we first had to watch videos about pixels
If you grab a magnifying glass and put it up to a digital screen you can see tiny little squares, The little squares are called pixels. In the pixels there are even more little squares. The Pixels are made out of three colors Red, Blue and Green and they are called RBG's

The more pixels you have the clearer/denser  the image, every single pixel can have approximately 16 and a half million colors

Anti-alias allow images to look smoother for example you cannot make a circle out of square pixels so you can use a tool called Anti-alias allows you to smooth the edges by, adding different shades to the circle

Failure as a Way to Success

Failure Changing into Success 

What I think about failure into success; I think that it is good. I think of failure as a mistake and if you have a growth mindset. You can learn from your mistake and try again and again until you succeed. 

Stephen King 

Stephen King is famous for his novels in horror, Supernatural fiction so forth. now been made into movies. He has sold over 30 million novels. His first novel 'Carrie' was rejected 30 times. He even through the manuscript into the garbage. But his wife found it and in his dream in becoming an published author. 

From learning about  failure into success I know know that not all famous people had a good childhood and they had to learn from there mistakes

Don't Give me a Winter in Aratika (Prose)

Don't Give me a Winter in Aratika

Don’t give us a winter on our farm. Your cold blistering wind freezes our hands, when we drive our quad bikes. Your rain make our paddocks wet and splattered with mud, your rain is so bad that our cows suffocate in your mud and makes all the creeks rise and drown our newborn calves, Your loud and crackling thunder storms scare the newborn calves to death. In the mornings your white cold frost covers everything, causing all of our animals water to freeze. Why do you not give us long hot days with a gentle breeze. And only have small amounts of rain so the grass can grow, and let us have nice warm nights, so our calves can cuddle up to their mothers, before they are taken away the next day. And let there be less mud so our cow don’t suffocate. Winter have it less likely for there to be accidents on the machinery by giving us nice fine weather. Give us nice warm breezes so we can go out to the lake on weekends and go for nice swims in the nice cool lake. Although you may give us nice sunny days, so work is made easier for the workers on the farm.

Run

On a cold, cloudy day the air felt clear and crisp as I ran through, the deserted streets of London. My boots thudded as I ran on the cracked pavement. 8:50, time was running out. It was 5 minutes until the train leaves the station. I was like I was running down a cold endless hallway. I skidded around the corner. 3 minutes. I put on a extra boost of speed. I push through the stations front doors and leaped onto platform. As I jump into the train it started  rumbling down the track. Made It!
