The Outdoorsman

Congratulations to Daniel for his outstanding work on his final game. Working alone, this student from Tygarts Valley Middle School has done a phenomenal job. For working alone this game has went a long way. The concept of using trains and math is genius. The minigame level at the end is also very amusing. Working with code is hard to figure out and working alone with no help from a team member is very complicated. The graphic are neat, and the controls are easy to understand. Daniel's team page has a cool, simple animation on it that I really enjoy. If anyone is intrested check out Daniel's team page---->http://www.myglife.org/usa/tvms/index.php/Team:The_outdoorsman

Fish Game

The game Fishie Friends! that was created by team Pink Fluffy Monsters is a really nifty game that has come really far since the begining. In the game the player discovers how to keep the environment clean and ways to understand and stop the causes of bullying. The great graphical work that has been put into the middle school game is very impressive. Also impressive is the teams coding skills. I see a bright future for team Pink Fluffy Monsters and cannot wait to see their results. http://www.myglife.org/usa/tvms/index.php/Team:The_Pink_Fluffy_Monsters

Great Graphics!

The graphics of team Cute Is What We Aim For are amazing. The team consists of two Elkins Middle school students named Autumn (Autumnpems11) and Nicole(Nicolebems11). The graphics and art work that was put on the paper prototype are stupendous. The sketch that was made even better by the production of their game demo. This game demo has a lot of graphic detail. Some could call it gore but the theme is to collect and use evidence from crime scences. Everyone needs to check out this creative work! http://www.myglife.org/usa/ems/index.php/Team:Cute_Is_What_We_Aim_For

Check out this demo by team "For Sparta"

Team For Sparta from George Washington High School has created a demo for their game "Battle for Central Park". Their game lets you enjoy learning while playing reenactments of ancient battles throughout history. The art and animation in this game already looks so great in the demo, so we can't wait to see what they come up with for the final version. Great job!

Great Game Demo from "Team Try Hard"

Team Try Hard from Riverside HS has created a very detailed and strong Game Demo that includes a first level of their game, called "CASS" (short for "Create A Solar System" This is a clever game idea, I hope they are able to develop this demo into a strong game at the end of the year. This concept is a perfect fit for the STEM Game Design Competition. Great job guys!

A Clever Game Idea from team "Brostache"

Team Brostache from Liberty High School has a paper prototype explaining the difference between wants and needs. This can help you understand which items we need to spend money on, and what things are wants that we can do without. The basics of finance!

Check out their Paper Prototype below. This game looks fun, I look forward to playing it in the spring.
