Final Interview

 1. Comment about your work ethic in this course.

My work ethic was good for most of the course until the very end, when I kind of gave up on SketchUp.

 2. Which assignments did you enjoy and why? 

I enjoyed the Minecraft and Game Journalism assignments, and I was satisfied with Thunkable, even though it was really annoying dragging and dropping blocks of code when I didnt understand what they did. 

3. Which assignments did you struggle with and why?

I did not like SketchUp or Photoshop because I am not artistic at all and I don't like using design programs like that.

Game Journalism Play 4

If I were to start over I would...

1. Gather more resources at the very start
2. Upgrade my raft quicker
3. Make a farm as soon as I could so I could have a steady supply of food
4. Make a fishing rod.
5.Craft a spear
6. Harvest seaweed
7. Make a second floor for my raft
8. Build a ramp to climb onto islands.
9. Make an upgraded hook.
10. Make an advanced purifier and grill.


The best tool for survival is the fishing rod because it can give you food without having a farm.



Game Journalism Day 4 - Upgrades

The metal spear does more damage to the shark than the wooden spear and makes it stop attacking your boat faster.
The larger grill can cook 3 things at once unlike the simple one.
The advanced purifier can purify 5 cups of water at once and doesnt take planks.
The Scrap hook can be thrown farther and harvests things faster.
The water bottle can hold 5 cups worth of water at once.

Game Journalism Play 3

Built a new Birds Nest
The Bird Nest allows you to get feathers and eggs, but I still can't figure out how to use the eggs.

Eggs can only be eaten raw in the game right now and they restore a large amount of health and some thirst.





I built my raft in no particular way, I just kind of expanded it when I needed to but I'm slowly starting to organize it into sections.
