★Game Design
To make our CyberFair website more interactive and interesting, we decided to make a simple game to be included on our website. We thought Mr. Huang, the computer teacher, could make the game for us; however, Ms. Yang, our teacher, thought this was the perfect opportunity for us to learn something new. Even though we were short on time, she still arranged for Mr. Huang to come and teach us how to make a game using Flash.
When we heard about the chance of making a game, we were all ecstatic! We thought it was a nice break from all the seriousness of CyberFair work.
On our way to the computer lab, we were chatting with excitement; however, we soon regretted this idea. During the game-making process, there were a lot of important steps we did not understand at first. We failed many, many times, but we tried and tried again. We encouraged each other along the way, and this gave us the faith to succeed.
At last, we finished making the game, and Mr. Huang even said our computer-skills are comparable with those of students in high school. Our lesson on Flash ended with laughter in the computer lab.
