how pollution kills animals

Pollution hurts everybody so don't pollute because you are just hurting yourself. I hope that every one the people who play our game will not pollute ever again because it will be the most serous helpful fun game any one will ever play EVER. the problems with plastics are that they don't break down for a long long long long long long time. So don't ever just throw out plastic.
              diapers are some of the worst things to throw out because their made to hold water  and not fall apart. So they don't biodegrade for years and in that time animals could hurt or kill themselves. 
              plastic rings kill so many animals because they get stuck around their necks and suffocate themselves and even when people cut them animals can still choke on them.

play to learn 1

Temporal Taxonomy was my favorite game on play to learn. I was looking for a game with a good story and lots of levels. Yes it was fun but it only had one level which is boring but had a good story and was challenging. This game teaches us about the bugs we have. It does not have any rewards thats why I stopped playing. To show where they would be. The age limit i would put on  this game  is 8. To make it better by adding more levels.




* Name of the game:
* What were you looking for?
* Was the game fun to play? Explain why.
* How does the designer reward you and keep you playing? 
* What does this game teach you? 
* How does it use hidden objects to teach you?
* What age group would find this educational?
* How would you make this game better?

spirit of a marathon

A marathon is a race were tons of people meet up to race. I think people run in marathons because of all the glory they get after the race. Deana kaster's because she was an underdog for most parts of the race and did not give up and beat her competitors.

My game

One of the three things i liked about our game is that the hook moved up and down and moved with the boat. Another thing is that it stayed above water. I also liked that i was able to put a barrier n the ground so the boatman did not go past the ground and not fall .finally I liked that it caught the fish and got the lives too.

One thing i didn't like about it is that I did not get the timer in there. Also that i could not get the cutthroat trout in there. Finally I had a bug were the boat man falls.

final game reflection

I learned about flash and that it existed and that i can solve a few problem but not all of them. I now know lots about flash because of the final game. It taught me about tweens and that you can make really good games on it. I got way better at buttons and codes because once you got the hang of it you know it for a long time. I learned that bears are losing a food source because lake trout are eating the cutthroat trout which are one of the main food source of food for them from the topic. I learned that I love flash.

video games in Somalia

I think it could be kind of good for them but not how much the play because they play for hours an some times waits for hours to get their turn on the gaming system. They should get a lot more exercise and spend less time playing games. Maybe even go outside  and play real soccer with her friends. If they play more sports outside they might not even want to get in the military.

food inc.

Chickens are treated horribly in chicken farms because they are fed corn and caused them to be fat and not able to walk and sit face to face in their own poop. Chicken farmers are treated with out respect and are not allowed to talk to anyone about the conditions. The most likely reason is it will make people not want to eat their product anymore. To stop it we could eat allot less of their products and they will lose money or we could protest. cows are just as bad as chickens because they are fed corn which makes them fat because they are supposed to eat grass. They stand knee deep in poop and the run off from that contaminates the vegetables and their meat. they probably do this to get more of a product from them. We could protest and not eat beef. I think minorities have a higher chance of getting diabetes because they get less money and have to go with cheaper less healthy food such as fast food and it causes the diseases. The people working there are probably illegal minorities and are treated bad because they are illegal and don't want to get caught and if they get caught the companies don't get in trouble only the minorities. The Monsanto company has genetically modified the soybeans to not be killed by their pesticides and that makes the farmers have to buy both and they cant save the seeds or the person who collects the seeds gets in trouble and so does the farmer even thoe the seeder did not know that  they were Monsanto's seeds. Because the Monsanto corporation put a patent on their seeds. This is important to us because it hurts the farmers. You could make a game out of this by being a farmer and you got to make a farm that does not go bankrupt. The hero would be the farmer , The enemy would be the Monsanto corporation. Your gole is to make the perfect farm. To collect points you would to raise money.
