Final Project Reflection
I used a lot of blocks in my final game. I used a lot of sensing blocks to switch from level to level, especially on the boss level.I also used a lot of costume changes, to change all of the storm trooper skins to create a challenge in the game. I also used a lot of glide to blocks to make the storm troopers move, and use go to blocks to make the boss move. I also had to mess around with the scoring blocks so you would gain or lose points if you click the storm trooper. I had to persevere through a lot of things, especially getting the boss level to work. The boss wouldn't teleport to where it was supposed to go so I had to go through my code for a long time to see what's wrong, the problem being that the Sith and Jedi buttons that connected to the boss weren't activating properly. I also had a problem in importing my storm trooper drawings, because I drew the pictures on my iPad, making the importing process more difficult.

Final Project Blog Post
My final game will be star wars themed. There will be storm troopers going back and forth on the screen, and if you click one, you'll get a point. You cannot click them if they are holding their shotgun because you will get hit and lose a point. There will be 3 levels, each getting harder. On the 3rd level, you will be asked if you want to join the dark side or the Jedi, and your choice will determine which boss you fight, though both are the same level of difficulty. I will create my own sprites, or get pictures from the internet. There will be three different types of sprites: storm troopers, Luke sky walker, and Darth Vader. The background will have a galaxy-ish and futuristic theme, and it will change every level. You have to get 10 points before advancing to the next level. If you click on a storm trooper while they have their gun, you will lose a point. If you click them, you'll get a point. If you click Luke or Darth Vader, you'll get a point. If you click them when they have their life sabers out, you lose 3 points. Luke and Darth Vader will teleport across the screen, making it difficult to click them. If your points reach the negative at anytime, the game automatically ends and you lose. You will have 1 minute to complete each level. You win by passing all the levels, and defeating the boss in level 3. As each level will go up, the storm troopers will move faster , that is until you reach the boss.
