Action Game: Move Player With Game Loop

I would also like for my player to jump in this game. Also, I want mp player to be able face the direction he is going when he move left or right. I would also want my player to be able to climb ladders. I could do this by putting a hitTest on it and then have the player's x value go down until it reaches the top.

Action Game: Set Start Position

When you change the x value, the MovieClip either moves left or right. So, when you change the y value, the MovieClip moves up or down. When I change the x value to be greater, the MovieClip moved to the right. When I changed the x value to be smaller, the MovieClip moved to the left. Same for y. When I made the y value bigger, the MovieClip moved down the screen. When I made the y value smaller, it moved up the page. The x and y coordinate plane in flash is like Quadrant 4 of a regular graph, except the y is absolute value. None of the results really surprised me because I knew what would happen when I changed the x and y value.

Action Game: Make and Trace Paper Prototype

My paper prototype is of my background. My background it supposed to make the player feel like he is in the inside of a computer. My paper prototype helped me solve how the layout of my game would work and it also helped me finalize how I thought the player would move and interact with his environment.

Action Game: Plan Game Scene

I plan for my game to take place inside a computer. It will be a platform/scrolling game and you will have to defeat different types of malware on your way to my collectable. Each malware will look different like viruses would be like bugs, worms would be computer worms, spyware will be a spy, etc. My collectable is an anti-virus cd that the player then takes to the cd drive so they can disinfect their computer. What really excites me about this game is the coding that I will be able to put into it.

Action Game: Choose Learning Topic

My game is about malware. I researched different types of malware and what each type can do. What surprised me was that there are lots of things malware can do and also that a single malicious program can be spread to millions. There have been major malware software that have caused major damages to google chrome and even caused the pentagon to ban thumb drives. I can use my game to help people learn what malware is, what it can do, how to prevent malware, how to find out if you have been infected with malware, and also how to get rid of malware.

Action Game: Play to Learn

I learned information about evolution, littering, parasites playing the games they picked up. I noticed that the link that was supposed to go to a game about bullying went to the wrong game. Some of the ideas I got for my game were having one of the levels being a maze. Also to add animation to the character when it moves or turns around.
