Do I want to design video games or just play them?
Creating a game is similar to storytelling. You can make a way for someone to get something done. There are various video game creating sites and their are also video game creating software. The difference being the difficulty in coding. In this section you will have the choice to design a video game using the Unity software or develop one using a web based program. Research and see what you can find. If you choose to use a web based program, you will need to create five levels and will be graded on difficulty. Unity is a more difficult program that may take you more time to figure out, but hey if you are interested in what it takes you should definitely try and take a look at it.
In this section, you will be creating a simple game. From a ball that knocks over blocks to a cube that climbs up steps, the sky is the limit here, but make sure to do something easy to start to turn in and if you want to do more we can talk. This is a more difficult project, so this may take more time than other projects (notice the points).
You can also use game makers for this project. These games are worth less points, but I am willing to give more points for creativity. Some of these are called flolab or sploder.
Point Value: 40 (based on creativity and complexity)
***Using the game makers are worth 30 points
Timeline: 5 days
Expectations:

REMEDIAL
Research what makes a good video and find out how developers come up with their ideas and how they put them into action. Find at least 3 developers videos about their game and create a summary of the process. Make sure to put the link to the video with you summary.
