To begin creating this game, I had to think of a concept. I wanted it to be easy to explain and fun to play. I immediately had the idea of creating a game that had to do with sports because I enjoy sports and I know that many other people do too. As I worked to make this game, I ran into a few problems. To work through these, I ran through my game to see what the issue was. I then checked that part of the script and tried removing and adding things until the problem was fixed. As I made each block of script, I tested it individually. I also played it myself a few times as I went along to make sure everything was going together like it should.

Final Project: Purpose of My Game
When playing my game, the goal is to touch the tennis ball while avoiding the soccer ball. If you are hit by the soccer ball, you will lose one point . If you touch the tennis ball, you will gain two points. Once you reach 300 points, you advance to the second level. To advance to the third you must earn 800 points. To win, you must earn 1300 points. To play this game, you must jump over the ball or, in the more difficult levels, move away from the ball when it comes from all directions. The levels get increasingly difficult because of the speed and location of the soccer ball and tennis ball.

Levels Reflection
What are different ways of increasing difficulty in a game?
You can increase the speed of something or the amount of obstacles.
What blocks are used to implement levels?
"Switch Backdrop To ______", "Next Backdrop", "If ____ Then", "Broadcast Next Level".
Variable Reflection
What is a variable?
A variable is something that can be changed while playing the game.
How would you explain variables to young learners?
I would describe it as something like the score or speed that can be changed.

Week 2: Debug It Reflection
What is one debugging strategy that you used?
I thought of things that we've learned like "Broadcast" and "Make A Block" that could apply to the problem at hand.
How would you help someone else learn how to debug a project?I thought of things that we've learned like "Broadcast" and "Make A Block" that could apply to the problem at hand.
I would tell them to think of everything they know how to do and all of the blocks and out of these, try to figure out which one could solve the problem. I'd tell them to try multiple things because not everything you try will work the first time.
