Game Presentations♥

So, our game presentations on Wednsday went pretty well. They told our team, (as well as the other teams), that we did a fantastic job. They told me, along with my team, that our game is great, and they loved watching us present it. They said, it's not completely done yet; which we already know that. They told us all we have to do is polish it up like, the spelling and codes. We messed up on a page but, other than that, it was fine. They gave us suggestions like, not to write in light colors. If you do, then you can't read it and it's no point.

Our Progress This Year (;




So, our game is coming along good. All we need to do is add a couple things. But, other than that, it's going pretty well. Right now, we are finding a background for level 4 in our game. I like working on my game but, I'm glad to say were almost finished. I guess you can say this class went by fast because, to me it did. Oh, for next years' class, I would tell you to do this, If you want to stress, and work hard. I'm not saying it's a bad idea to join Globaloria, I'm just warning you how it's not so easy all the time. I came in here thinking that it's going to be easy. Well, I'm going to tell you right now, it's really not. Even though it's fun, that doesn't mean that the work isn't hard. So, if you are thinking about attending Globaloria, think a bit before you decide.

The Final Days of Addition Man, (:

Well, it's getting close until we have to complete our game. Next month is when we have our game presentation. I'm nervous but, I have my team to help/support me. Dustin is the artist in the game. He can draw very good. Alexis is pretty much the leader and, she knows a lot about flash. I'm the sound manager. I look for good sounds for our game. It's a little difficult trying to find the right sound. It's very fun as well. I am going to miss globaloria but, I'm excited to finally complete my game. This has been a very fun and, interesting experience. There has been times where I have wanted to just give up but, I held on. I love my team and, how well our game is coming out. Not just my team, The other teams as well. I can't wait until game presentation. Good Luck Everyone(:

Eastern Greenbrier Middle


Eastern Greenbrier Middle has some impressive game ideas. Their games look alot of fun, and very educational. I looked at the game called, Farming Math. It was okay. It gave me some ideas for my game but, I might just stick with my game plan for rigt now. I have a suggestion for that team. They could be more creative. It was good and all but, creativity is what mainly attracts the viewers. But, my whole opinion about the Eastern Greenbrier Middle globaloria is really neat, and great ideas. So, they did a great job.

Our Game Presentation

I say the hardest part of the game presentation for me was trying to get our demo done. That was difficult for me, because I had so many problems with the action script. As soon as I fixed one problem another one came along. When you do one little thing wrong with the action script, it will completley stop working. We figured it out though. The easiest part of it was creating the scenes. It was easiest, because it brought our character to life. We really enjoyed it. Watching the 7th graders' presentation helped us get an idea on what to expect with our own. So much effort was put into our demo and presentation, we hope they like it. Addition Man is a game for kids in kindergarten to 2nd grade. We hope that when we have our game finished they will like it. I'm nervous about our presentation, because I'm worried they won't like it. I don't really know why I'm worried about it I just am. Well I guess I shouldn't let my nerves get the best of me.

Assembling Our Game

So much time has past. The fun part of assembling our game was just trying to recreate everything and get it to work. That just might have been the best part. The hardest part was remembering all the codes and trying to fix things when scenes overlapped. Who knew so much work went in to creating a simple game, yet alone a complicated one. I'm looking forward to actually having our game done. Even though it is ment for kids around 5 years old it actually looks fun now. Globaloria is a very fun, interesting, and learning class, I hope the school keeps the grant that allows us to have it.

Game Presentation


I think my presentation went great. My team did a very great job. The listeners said we did amazing and they love the idea of our game. They gave us tips and told us what they honsetly thought about it. I wasn't nervous speaking in front of the class. I was nervous of what they thought about my teams game. I didn't want them to say they didn't like it. But, i wanted to hear their opinions considering they know a lot more about this game thing. Other than that, I wasn't nervous at all. I was actually really excited to do it. Mr.Lester said I did great and I was happy he thought so. I'm proud of myself, and my team members and all the other teams. They did very well. Most people was nervous at first but, when they saw that it was no big deal, they lightened up. They did their best and suceeded.

Jordan Wayne


Jordan Wayne McClanahan. He was the best at everything he did. Ecspecially basketball and football. I am still hurt and sad about his passing. I know that he wanted everyone to be happy that his soul is set free. But, it's hard. It really is. Jordan was the spirit of the school. He was the class clown. He was very funny, smart, handsome, nice, outgoing, sweet, and amazing to have around. He'd always have a smile on his face. That's what everyone loved about him. Gosh, I can keep typing and typing all day. Ecspecially if it's about Jordan! I loved him so much. He was my best friend. I'm holding up better than I thought I would've. No matter how much I want to cry, and just crawl into a hole, I have to be strong. I feel like Jordan is still here. I know he is. That's what gets me through the day. My heart goes out to his family. If I could see Jordan one more time, I would say, "Jordan, you meant allot to me and everyone else. I hope you know that you were loved. I miss you bub and I wish I could get you back. Because, trust me, I would. And, I'll be strong for you. There's always a place in my heart for you. ALWAYS! I love you so much and you were the greatest 'Jer-dan' :) I'll miss you forever. r.i.p bubby." I know that Jordan is in a better place now, but, I just didnt get why he passed on for. Now, I know, that I shouldn't question God's plan. And, there's a reason for everything. I just don't know what the reason is. Well, this blog is getting kind of long. Maybe I should stop here. I love you Jordan Wayne! R.I.P bubbby!

Love Brittney.
