Kodu Pac-Man

Map
Pacman Code
Part 2
Ghost code

1.How close is your game to the original? What is different? What is the same?
I would rate 6/10 on how close my game to the original. The differences are that one of the power ups make you jump high and that there's more ghost. The similarities are that there's apples and pacman is faster than the ghost.
2.What extra or creative details did you change or add to your version of the game? Why did you create these changes?
I added the blue apple, but when you eat it kodu says "I'm Blue da ba dee da ba daa". I added it because I find it funny
3.What difficulties did you have? How did you fix this?
I had difficulties on making the map. I fixed it by actually counting the pixels and not estimating. 
4.What feedback did your beta testers have for you and how did you implement their suggestions?
One of my beta testers say that I should make the jump higher. I implemented their suggestions by adding high on the code
5.What would you improve with your game? What would be the next steps with your game?
I would improve the path for the bots. I would make the map bigger.

Video Games: The Movie

1. What are some of the reasons video games were successful? What makes a game popular?      
 Some of the reasons that make video games successful are the story line, easy to control but hard to master, and the different style that you can finish the game. A game gets popular if it has a trailer that hooks people to play it. Also, if it has a multiplayer, so you can play with your friends.

2. What are some of the reasons why the video game industry crashed in the 1980s?
The video game industry crashed because the company kept of making new games that were not well made.
3. Do you think video games are a form of art? Why or why not?
In my opinion, games are a form of art because you need to draw a character, background and the materials that goes in the game. Also, the purpose of art is to show emotions and the mood to the person.

4. What is the next evolution in video games? What are the challenges that need to be solved in the next generation of games?
The next evolution would be virtual reality. They need to solve how to move without using V.R. sticks.

Photoshop intro

with image adjustments

Description: I used Photoshop and used the lasso tool to outlines the pictures I wanted, then I made the sides more smooth so it wouldn't look rough on the edges. After that I copied them in to the iron man suit and resized them.
