Final Reflection

This project was more challenging for me.  Having never used scratch, the idea of creating a game was a whole new concept to me.  My original idea was not working out for me, so after some trial and error runs that continued to operate different that I wanted, I decided to switch up my game.  Originally, I wanted to do a maze, but I wanted to use snowflakes to go around instead of the blocks.  A big frustration with this was my sprite, Anna from Frozen, was not moving with the arrows like I had programed her to.  Instead of wasting anymore time simply getting annoyed, I decided to redo my plan for the game.  While I stuck with the Frozen theme, my layout was completely different.  In level one, I made the player build Olaf the snowman.  In this, I had to break a picture apart into pieces and cut it up perfectly so that it would nicely fit together in the end.  This worked a lot better than the maze type of game I had started.  Since that was level one, I made it sort of easy.  I decided all you would have to do is click on the piece, and it would build itself.  I also added directions as you go, making the game easier to understand.  The next level was more challenging because you only have a minute to click on as many snowflakes as you can.  While this sounds super easy, I made sure the snowflakes were moving pretty fast to incorporate more of a challenge.  After every step I made, I hit the green flag and stimulated playing the game to make sure everything was going smoothly as planned.  If something did not work correctly, I would immediately delete it and try something else, or try to find an error with my script.  After a few changes to my first layout and some de-bugging along the way, my game turned out exactly as I envisioned it.  I am most proud of the fact that I uploaded other images, rather than the ones provided in the scratch library because I feel this makes my game more unique.  Also, I love the movie Frozen, so it made this experience more exciting for me.  I am, disappointed there are only two levels, but seeing as we had limited time to create this game, I believe it turned out fantastic!!!
