Evaluating Game Platforms


I think that game looked quite cool. It looked more for 5-10 year olds and it looked fun for them. Journey looked pretty well done. The music made the game sound and look cooler and has some good notes/quotes for the game. The character looks mysterious. It was made by Sony Entertainment. Quality was quite good. I don't want to play it because I am more of a shooter/first person gamer. Journey is a good game, not for me though.







Unity is a really good platform and has a brilliant market level, helping lots of programmers to program and create games. Never Alone is quite a exciting game to watch, but again, not my style. It has a great adventure theme and won lots of awards. the two main characters, the human and wolf were quite good together. The Alaskan community had a bad reputation, drugs, kids dropping out of high school and lots of them sitting at home and playing games. The arts, music etc was designed by most of the kids. The attendance at the school was between 54% and 91%. The curriculum is still at that school now.

Error Control

To find the error in this, you must count how many blacks and how many whites. To make it even, you add the even black/white on the eighth line. Parity Cards are just like matching and patterns. You have to go in groups and make the square 8 by 8 and make them so the blacks and whites even. Then, get someone to turn around in your group and switch out one of the cards, making one of the horizontal/vertical lines odd. The person then has to choose which one and flip it over again. Try this with all the group. You could make it bigger, make it more of a challenge.

Decomposition is when you pretty much have to find the odd one out and flip it over. With Parity Cards, you have to find the odd card out and flip it over. You have to memorize where it is, where it's supposed to go etc.
