VIDEO GAMES: THE FILM

Q1: What are some of the reasons video games were successful? What makes a game popular?

The video games makes you go to another world, when you play it you don't think about what is happening outside the game and you don't think about your problems, this is good but it can be bad also because a lot of people get in trouble with addiction.
One of the reasons is that you can do a lot of things inside the game you can change the history you can create you characters as you want.
One other thing very important is the graphics, a lot of people what they want is to think that they are inside one world as I said so the graphics is too important depending on what type of game are you playing
Another thing very important now is that all games must have an online part, then you can plkay with your friends and it's not that bored.

Q2: What are some of the reasons why the video game industry crashed in the 1980s?

The crash occurred because off the saturation of the market, all the companies were doing poor games. They didn't put much effort doing this games so people started to see the games boring things and bad things. Also the competition with the computers is one of the reasons.
The price of a computer was the same that a gaming console but with the computer you could do other things not only play video games so people choose to buy computers instead of gaming consoles.

Q3: Do you think video games are a form of art? Why or why not?

Yes, I think that video games are a form of art because you have to create new things and draw and animate the paintings, it's a hard job with a lot of types of art, not only draw, you have to imagine and create what are the characters doing why are they doing this , create a story that have to make sense.
So yes I think that doing video games it's more than a form or art video games are life.

Q4: What is the next evolution in video games? What are the challenges that need to be solved in the next generation of games?

The next evolution in games is the virtual reality called (VR).
Now they have a type of virtual reality but it's not good at all, you can't play a long time because you get dizzy, the graphics are not good at all and you can't do a lot of things like in normal video games.
In general I think that this evolution is going to be good because you are going to be able to form  part of the game more inside, they are trying to do all more realistic.
One thing that I don't really like is that in some games you have to play in a very big room because you have to move yourself to arrive to another part and in small rooms this is not possible.

Final Project Proposal

Today I just started thinking about my project I'll started searching tutorials that I could use to create my final game, I'm thinking about making something like the first game that I created in this class when we were using scratch and see the progress and the new things I learned this year.            The game that I created was called Ninjaso, you had to try to avoid the figures and those were            coming faster and faster all the time.           What I want to do now is to change the characters and give the game a good image and also                put a shooter mechanism where you can shoot the objects that are coming, I would like to                    create  a boss too but I don't know if I'm going to have enough time. I'm going to use game maker and I'll be following one tutorial at ...

GameMaker - Asteroids - Part C

- What difficulties did you have?  I didn't have any difficulties at all, I had a problem because i putted a + instead of an = but It's because he Spanish keyboards are different. - How did you solve them? I opened the project and it said that I had a problem inside obj_asteroid, obj_player so I went inside it and I just saw that I had a + that was supposed to be a =. - What did you change in your game to make it unique? How do these changes affect gameplay? I changed the sounds the font and the design of the asteroids, it doesn't affect the game but I would like to change the way the asteroids re spawn, only when you kill them all the spawn again and that's easy I would prefer to add 2 asteroids every time you kill one or something like that because it's getting harder. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1VByVKLU9x7FHCKsw1AHwFZ40yupf3X1b

Game Designer Skills

Game Designer Skills 3 skills from the list that I feel i would be the best at: 1- Business: I think that the business is very important inside the world of video-games because you have to know all the things that are more attractive to buy: how the game should be and the people that are going to play.  This is one thing that i really like to do, i really like to sell things I like to think about how sell it. 2-Brainstorming: I think that the best important thing at the time of making a game is the ideas that you have. One game can be good if you have good ideas but if you have a bad idea but all the other is perfect people won't buy it. I have a lot of imagination so i think that i'm good at brainstorming. 3-Sound game: I played a lot of games and it's too important the sound game it makes you feel inside the game and in shooter games for example the sound of the guns or the steps near to you are so important. I played a lot of shooter game and I know ...
