Exit Interview

1. Comment about your work ethic in this course.
I enjoy working in this class, but sometimes I needed help a bit so sometimes, I usually like to finish my work on time just like my other class so I don't have to worry about it to much but I take my time to do it carefully so I don't get to much errors and mistakes. The most thing I like to focus on is the work I've be given to because it helps me concentrate a lot

 2. Which assignments did you enjoy and why?
I think I enjoy playing Minecraft because I like to build project with my friend Crystal and build the whole world together. but then we kinda destroy it at the end when we finish it which was the fun part 

 3. Which assignments did you struggle with and why? 
I think I kinda struggle with Photoshop and Thunkable but most likely Thunkable because they both had different version so it was a little hard to work on the older version to the new version because of the changes they had to the new version so I try my best to figure out how to work it and if I can't figure it help I either ask my friends for help maybe or the teacher

Game Journalism Day 4 Upgrade

5 things to Upgrade
1. What does it do better
The upgraded storage has more space in side then the normal storage. Now I can place more things inside my upgraded storage 


2. What's the difference 
The upgrade hook can go more further and it can pick up things more faster then the normal one



3. How does this help 
The upgraded fishing rod is much more stronger than the original one because it doesn't take to much damage after you caught one fish 



4. Why did you do it 

I wanted to plant more fruit such as pineapples and watermelon if I had seeds and the normal one just plants flowers which I don't need
5.  Was it worth it
Upgraded axe is more stronger then the normal axe, but I had to find bolts but it's worth it, nothing  to exciting but it doesn't take to much damage after you chop like 5 to 7 tress

My Raft



Thursday, January 17, 2019

Game Journalism Day 4- What would you do

If you were to start over, what will you do first

1. Collect items 
2. Build a shark spear
3. Craft your raft a bit bigger 
4. Build purifying water
5. Build a grill
6. Build a fishing rod
7. Cook fish and drink water 
8. Find metal
9. Build a cup
10. Build a research lab

What is the best tool to make for survival 


I would say the plastic hook and spear because you can use the plastic hook to catch things out of the water to build many things and the spear is good to defend your raft against the shark

Your raft to date. What is the best feature on your raft

My raft has a second floor now, that means I can catch things more easy, but now I might build the third floor so I can start going onto really high island

Game Journalism Play 3

What new things did you build today

I built two sides of triangle thatch sides and a stairs. I was going to built a roof but eventually I died because I died from thirsty and the shark so I had to restart again



How will these new thing help you play the game(Tips&Tricks)

If I built the second floor, then I can get more space to put more storage such as moving my researching table and my bed and downstairs will be the grilling and water purifier.

The triangle thatch sides will help me from falling down if I was catching things from the water

The roof will help me catch things more easy

The roof will help me get on to island that are really high so it will be easy for me to get on top

What strategies are you going to try to focus on tomorrow

I'm going to find metal

I'm going to built a shark bait so it will distract the shark because it's really annoying me when I'm trying to collect things and shark just appear out of no where and it will help me  collect more things for the research lab and upgrading me raft

Add a picture of your raft, Explain why you built the raft the way you did


The reason why I built the triangle thatch side is because sometimes when I'm trying to grab things near me, I always fall down over and over or it's better for me to built this so it will be easy for me to collect things without falling down

I built the stairs because it's better for me to catch things that are hard to get instead of swimming and it also helps me to see where the shark is attacking my raft

What specifically did you do today

What I did today was I just collected resource from water or Island such as food, water and materials like ropes, plastic or wood and not get killed by the shark, but this time I'm going to make my raft a little bigger that way I can place more storages such as fire to make food and fresh water, creating a research lab and a bed

What did you learn about how to play the game (Tips&Tricks)

Use Water purifier to collect salt water to change it into fresh water, if your thirsty then drink water and after you finish drinking, place another saltwater on the purifier, that way you can just drink right away after it's been cooked.
Collect more barrels if you see some because they contain more things inside such as food, leafs and ropes
Make a grill to cook your food like potatoes and fish
Upgrade your raft so you can put more stuff on it
 Use a plastic hook collect things instead of swimming to avoid getting attack unless if you can't catch it then it's risking if you don't want to get kill by the shark, unless you swim faster there and back.

What strategies are you going to try to focus on tomorrow

Probably going to collect more items first, then I'm going to build my raft a little bigger and I'm going to try to search for bolts

Add a picture of your raft. (include a caption) Explain what you have done to your raft and why

I added more wood onto my raft to make it a little bigger, I added a research lab, I added a grill for cooking food and I added water purifier to change saltwater into fresh water

Game Journalism Day 1

This the menu when you start your game


What this game is about
This game is about survival. Based on The long Dark another survival game, the character needs to look for supplies and items to build and craft stuff before the shark starts chasing you and bites you. Sometimes the shark might bite your raft, when it's night time you might not see any island around you and you might die from starvation or thirtys   



The shark really annoys me sometimes so what I did was I made a spear which you will get if you collect wood in the water and rope which you have to craft out of leafs which you can find in the water then once you created it, you can stap the shark if he trys to bite your raft again


These are a lot of things inside the barrel such as, ropes, scrapes and potatoes  


  Here I found a another raft which contains some food and items inside a contain but you better collect them quick or else it will sink and you lost them all



Here we have wood which you can use to crafts many things such as repairing your raft from a shark attack 

Plastic is a good item which you can use to create items like empty cups 


Leafs are use to create ropes



 Here we have a plastic hook which you can use to catch things from the water by holding left key mouse to hold the power and if you want to throw you let go to let it throw and if you want to drag it back you hold the left key mouse button 
  Here we have an island which contains fruit like watermelon  

Why did you die and what do you need to do about it
Well I died once to two times because I got killed by a shark when I was swimming and I died from starvation and thirsty ( don't drink saltwater because you will get yourself even more thirsty). So what I did was I build some equipment to make saltwater into fresh water o my raft and I also build cup too so I fire it, I waited for a few mins then finally I drank some pretty cool fresh water which increase my stamina which helps, but I also need to make a fishing rod to catch fish, cook it and eat it so I don't starve to death.
