Globaloria has not caused me to become more engaged. I am not saying Globaloria can't help students get engaged in classes, it is just that I am just to the point of Globaloria not being able to get me any more engaged. I am already a great student in classes like Biology and Algebra II, STEM related subjects, so I don't think I am able to get much more engaged than I right now.
If I had to choose a career in technology to pursue, I would be a game developer. I am inspired to become one by Square Enix and Game Freak. The developers of the companies have made games that have stood the test of time and push the genre of gaming with each new game they create. The success of these companies is what gave me the idea to make games that could potentially rival these companies. This job has to do with our game because our class introduces students to the concept of creating a game themselves

Today, we finished the character effects for our game. Character effects involve changing the properties of an object. The character effects we made changes the color of an object as you scroll over buttons.

We finished the timer yesterday, but I had no time to start the blog. The timer counts down from ten seconds to zero, but a problem occurs that make the timer start counting down negative time.

I have just completed the score keeping section of the development topics. This topic involved changing the variables in Fly Catcher and Go Rabbit, Go! games. I also created a simple "game" that involves pushing a button to raise and lower your score.
Here is the link to the "game" I made:

The green button raises your score by one hundred but the red button lowers your score by seventy-five.
