Using a Brain-Pad computer chip, I created a game where you have to move a character to avoid dying because it seemed like a fun game to try and program.
During this process, I learned how to code and download code onto a Brain Pad computer.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to computational thinker because I used a computer to code a game.
A challenge I overcame on this project was all of the errors in the code. I was able to do it by trial and error until it worked.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the game style by adding points of pizzas you survived. The reason why I would change it is because it gives you something else to go for instead of just staying alive.

Daily log of Project 4
I was learning how to code using code blocks in the brain pad website.
I started coding and tried to incorporate an analog stick to control the sprite.
3.I decided to make a game that has a bird flying at the bottom of the screen and has pizza flying down. The goal of the game is to avoid the pizzas without getting touched. If you get touched, one of three of your lives will be taken away.
4. I continued coding the game like making animation, and movement.
5. I made a feature that allows the pizza to pick a random spot at the top of the map and fall to the bottom.
6. I created a feature that if you touch the pizza slices you lose lifes.
I am working by myself. The materials I will need for this project is my computer, and the brain pad computer chip. The plan for this project is to make a game avoiding falling pizzas. The unique qualities my project has is the life system determining how many lives you have before you die.
This is the early stages of the code showing the animation of the sprite, the controls, and the overlapping code.
This is the video showcasing the game downloaded on the brain-pad and me playing the game. After about 2 seconds a new pizza spawns randomly at the top so its not to difficult.
This is the code that ends the game if you get touched by the pizza
This is the code responsible for making the pizzas spawn randomly at the top.
This code makes the jumper change images(animation).
This code resets and preps the game so it works fluently.
