Today in Gamestar Mechanic, we learned how to create our own games.  After completing all of the levels, we drew on paper what we envisioned our personal games being.  We could have any sort of game that we wanted, as long as it met the requirements.  Then, we played them to make sure that we could beat them before letting others play and rate them.  It was really cool to be able to make the video games that kids play all over the world every day.

In technology, we designed our own games using an app called Scratch.  Scratch allows you to write code to make games.  In my game, the goal is to get to 10 points.  You get one point every time that your polar bear hits a snowflake.  You lose one point every time that your polar bear hits a sun.  You can move your polar bear my using the left and right arrow keys.  Have fun!

In technology, we used an app on the computer called Turtle Art. Turtle Art allows you to use code in order to create different images.  I used a wave background and made my initials, A and O.
