“The best way to learn games is to play games. The best way to make games is to work.” – Alan Emrich
Optional: Weekly Homework
1. If we did not complete Game Maker Tutorial 9 (Super Rainbow Reef) in class, you are urged to complete that tutorial lesson on your own. You should have downloaded this lesson (along with all of the other Game Maker Tutorial files) from Mr. Emrich’s space on the school server, but if you didn’t, send him an email requesting this lesson and he will send it to you.
2. Extra Credit can be earned if you send me a modified version of Super Rainbow Reef. Add features and mod existing ones (there are suggestions at the end of the tutorial lesson document itself). In particular, this will be judged for good level design practices as explained in this week’s textbook reading assignment (below).
