How do you plan to use sound in your game? The sound will allow a better understanding for what you're doing and whats happening around that.

 

How will it help enhance the game play and learning experience of your game? The sound may or may not enhance the learning experience the way it is intended to be presented, but the game play may be enhanced because it will cause a better understanding for what's happening. For example, if you get used to hearing a certain sound when an event occurs, you will be aware of what is happening while you are playing.

I would like you to think about your game and answer the following question:  Can your game be both a Civics and Stem Game?

It can't relate to a Civics based game but it can relate to a Stem game because you are learning about technology and viruses in the computer world.

In order for you to make an informed decision and answer the above question, I have added links to the definition of Civics (Civics Definition) and Stem (Stem Definition). In addition, please list five game ideas that could be both Civics and Stem Games.

1)A game about how technology can be used to benefit the government world.

2)A game that shows the pros of using technology to vote on election day.

3)A game that requires both knowledge of government and science/technology related topics.

4)A game that can help you learn how government and science can be used together.

5)A quiz game that requires the player to explain how technology is used when it comes to government actions.

I like this class so far. Learning about code and programming flash files answered a lot of questions I had about online flash games and how they work. It helps me a lot with creating a game in the future.
