Scratch Level 4 - Create Your Own Game

link:https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/192449491/


1.       What difficulties did you have with programming this game? How did you fix them? Be specific.             

    I had troubles with the characters moving motion, the background motion, and making the winning and losing background appear. I asked Ms Vesik for the character and she said that the character is not placed in the position that I wanted it and instead making it move back and forward. So she adjusted the position of the character and it worked perfectly well. I was confused of the background motion so I found a game on tutorial and it worked just like the tutorial showed. The losing and winning background was a issue when it showed up when I clicked the green flag even if it is not suppose to do so. So I went back to my previous assignments on scratch and found out the problem that I need an another script for the command to work. So, I tried and it worked perfectly as I wanted after through many testing.

2.       If you used tutorials or another person's scratch project for reference, tell me what changes did you make to YOUR project?



I used Furybird's game to have a basic start. I added speed up bar's to increase characters speed and added chocolate bars so the player can earn points. Also, I added that the character needs to have 10 points to win and if it's is 0 then it losses.

3.       What feedback did your beta testers have for you and how did you implement their suggestions?     



The beta testers told me that I need to get rid of the background and fix the motion of the game. So, I tried my best on getting rid of the background and the beta tester saw the fixed version of the characters and said it looks better now. For the motion, the tester said how the characters move are weird. So, I changed the “change x by” tab into different numbers so there would be balance between the objects. The tester gave another try and said it is working fine.



4.       What would you improve with your game? What would be the next steps with your game if 

          you had more time? 

           I would have added a platform to make fun and possibly a weapon so the runner can kill the

           chaser so that would also include a health point for the enemy. I f had more time I would have

           just looked for tutorials on platforming building while others are fine since they have similar

           movement like other characters and object.
