Mini Game

Mini Game
It was hard at first because i was getting distracted by other but when i stayed after school i payed more attention and i got all my work done and got it turned in on time and got my full grade without  that much help from a teacher.
The best part for me was when i got the whole game to work and move with out messing up the whole thing the first time it messed up but i did it again and it worked.
The worse part was when i did it wrong and uploaded the wrong things to the place it didnt go to and i never changed the names to the flash after i was done with one scene.

9/11/11

How old were you on September 11,2011?

I was 3 years old.

When did you first learn about the attacks and  who explained the event to you?

When I was in 6th my brother  explained it to me .

What kind of impact did these attacks have on your life or your parents lives?

It didn't effect my life but it changed my mom and dad life they always get involved with this date and they teach me more about it.

Was the issue with this game?

It doesn't have a lot of facts about it and it is making fun of the whole thing.




How do you feel about it?

I feel  very bad and they shouldn't make a game about it because it is really bad.They are just making fun of the 9/11.




What is the problem with portraying on such an awful violent event though a video game?

Because it might effect other people and the remembrance of the people that died.




How can you make sure that your web games tell the whole story or teach a lesson in an honorable way?
By making the game just the truth and how people die and why they die and who did it.

2 Single Story 2011

Danger Of Single Story

What does it mean to have a 'single story' about a place or community?
when you think something before you even get there.You think it might be a bad place but when you get to stay there or get to know the people there they are sort of like you and that was a stereotype about someone or some place.


Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is missing from that story? How could people learn more about that community?People think that the East side is a bad place and that is were all the drugs and gangs and all the killings happen and they think it has bad schools and they don't want people to live there.People don't realize that people in the East side can be regular people that don't do none of them thing and some of the schools has good attendance and they pass with a reorganization .People outside the community can either ask questions or visit the place and ask people what they think and how they know it is a safe place to live and they can also go to the schools like the one I'm at right now.




Describe a single story you have heard about another community. How did you learn that story? How could you find out more about that community?Once i heard that the West side is with white people that are red necks and they only listen to country music and they have big houses and they have a lot of money.One day i decided to go to the West side with my dad and sister and we went to visit my cousin that i didn't know of and he  told me that not all people out there is white and rich only 50% are and the rest are like Mexicans and others and they don't really have big houses or listen to country music.I could find out more by my cousin that lives out there or i can ask someone that has lived there before.


How could a game let players experience many stories about a place or community?
The bad games that people think are real they are really not they just think that those parts of town do that when they really don't.The game that i will make will have details and they will be facts and no stereotypes about other Country's or the people that live there.
