About My Topic

My topic is about Teen Drug Abuse.


I want people to learn that drugs is an addiction and it is very wrong to do and that drugs will make you do bad things. I think that because I know people who do heroin, weed, coke, and bars and they do many crazy things.


This issue needs to be addressed because many teenagers use drugs and it is a serious problem because drugs make you go crazy.

Game Idea Reflection


  • Who are you designing your game for? (Include the player's age, abilities, and prior knowledge of your topic.) I am designing my game to teach teenagers like myself to stay away and don't get addicted to drugs.
  • What will your game teach the player about your topic? (Be specific!) How a lot of kids do drugs and what the use and how it is bad.
  • Where does your game happen? It happens one a black background i made in flash.
    • Describe the world you will design for your game. It just will be a black background and i will put everything else in bright colors.
    • How will this setting add to the learning experience? I don't think it really will but it might hep them learn more with bright colors.
  • How does your game world teach the player about your topic? It will teach the player about drugs and teen drug addiction and stuff with a facts page.
    • What happens in the world that helps the player learn? They will have fun and to keep playing they will have to answer questions.
    • How does the player use what they learned to make something happen in the game? They will have to answer questions to keep playing.
  • Why is a game a better way of understanding your topic than a quiz? It is better because you learn more by playing and having fun not just a boring quiz.

March Of The Penguins

1. I think they have to over come the walking to mate, like that is far to walk to mate 70 miles is far. I think they need to also overcome the weather because they carry the egg and they could die and kill the egg to.


2. The challenges they have are food they have to go like 4 months with out food that is crazy. The predators are also another challenge for them because when they get food they can get eating by their predator. 


3. They can get together and all huddle to get warmth, and they can all team up against the predator so they can in a way jump him and fight back and he just might swim away.


4. There is a period of time where there is no light because the earth is tilted and orbits around the sun.


5. It has to be a thick layer of ice because if not the baby penguins could possibly fall in the freezing water.


6. It  can negatively mess up the whole process of mating and making baby's because it can be too cold for the baby or something.

Game Review

What did you learn from your choice of games and genres to review?
I learned a lot from some of these games, actually helped u learn about things while others just want u to have fun and play the game.
Name any game features that stood out to you, either because they were interesting or because they could be improved.
The game that stood out to me was the one where its actually how life it is and how money is tight now and stuff like that.
Write down any questions you have about the game or genre you chose. You might answer them yourself later!
Who made the game? Can anyone win the game?
