Stupid Game in I.T. Class.

Here's a nice little preview of our up and coming game that's really dumb. Please show some respect for it. It's really nice. :3

This is the First Racetrack Level.

This is the little box you click on
if you wanna know what to do.

This is the car you play as.

This is the Next Level (level 2).

This is the Third Level, now with obstacles!

Close up of Obstacles.

The start line, and the restricting line.

Some programming actions for each level.

The sound the car makes when it moves.

The main programming actions for the Car.

Some extra programming actions.

A close up for the finish line.

The Border Line.

The flag button that you press in order
to play the game.

The programming panel where you
add the programming blocks.

The different categories.

The different levels & backgrounds.

The sound Panel.

That's pretty much it for now, stay tuned for more!

How does this combination of design elements impact
communication?

In many ways. For example, one of the only reasons why we bother listening to the Typographies, is because of how they actually present it. In Kinetic Typographies, the way they present what they're trying to say, is by getting a bunch of words and moving and shuffling them around on screen. And out of curiosity, we will want to watch it more. It's kind of like how we prefer watching informative animations rather then reading it of paper.

Here are a few examples that I found that use this presentation technique -

I-Pads are slow.....nothing else said.

1. Internet Access. Something that is usually expected in most electronic internet surfing devices. Unfortunately for I-Pads, that concept is somewhat left out. That meaning you can HARDLY surf the interweb. I'll tell you this, if you want to go on youtube, check you're E-Mail, or do anything that requires internet in a easy go service, then I would suggest sticking to the laptop.

2. Consistency of Signal. BAD, VERY VERY BAD. This might be because I sit in bad areas, or because the people I sit with are sucking up all the signal with the twiddling of there computers. However, back at home, I actually own an I-Pad, and it is still REALLY slow.

3. Tips & Tricks. Not much actually. Considering that I actually have an I-Pad, I pretty much know almost everything about the I-pad and it's tips and tricks.

4. More Apps? Well, not that I know of.

5. Problem Solving. Some things that I can't do on the I-Pad is that it doesn't really have a good internet connection.
