The Making of a Video Game Easy for Everyone

The Making of a Video Game Easy for Everyone The Art of Video Games 2012 by: Blake PattersonQuote on wall: Games are a toolkit we use to create. -Henry Jenkins Wiley, who created his own video game studio called Hot Trouble, encourages all to create their own game with the help of friends. “No experience is necessary,” he said. “[You] just have to love games.” And consequently, know what you like in games â€" what works for you and what doesn’t. He said that you don’t have to be a programmer or an artist to create a game, since modern technology, and program-sharing people, have made it entirely possible to create a video game without prior knowledge. Wiley knows. With no previous programing knowledge, he made his own recognized game, “Lumpy Space Chess,” based on the Cartoon Network program “Adventure Time.” Who wants to play video games? by: JD HancockThis is Beemo, the friendly video game console from the TV series Adventure Time. Classically trained programmers are not needed for all types of video games now, thanks to the Internet. Wiley listed platforms that could be used to make games without knowing traditional game programming. They are: GameSalad, the worlds fastest game design engine where you can learn to make and publish hit games for free, with no coding; GameMaker: Studio, used for fast, cross-platform game development for non-programmers and programmers; and Flixel, a open source game-making library and coding community. Wiley also named where people with unsatisfactory art skills could obtain game art â€" not everyone is an artist â€" and a place to get game audio.   They are: OpenGameArt(.org), a place with high-quality, appropriately licensed, 2D and 3D  artwork; and Bfxr(.net) a flash-based sound generator used for game sound effects. He said there are many avenues to get involved, like game jams such as “the Global Game Jam” or “Ludum Dare.” The Art of Video Games by: Ryan Somma (Because Wikipedia can word it 10x better than a girl with no gaming knowledge can, “A game jam is a gathering of developers, artists, and other creatives over a short time during which a collective effort is made to make one or more games.” Thanks Wiki.) Wiley also said there are various meetings people can go to, to get connected to the gaming community â€" one being “Juegos Rancheros,” an independent gaming community based in Austin, Texas. “It’s the golden age of video games,” Wiley said. “Games are art, art creates culture and culture determines your life.” Go game.

2015 New Years Language Challenge Wrap-Up!

2015 New Year’s Language Challenge Wrap-Up! What a great way to welcome the New Year with the completion of the italki 2015 New Year’s Language Challenge! The Challenge was to complete 20 hours of language lessons on italki in 6 weeks (from January 15th to February 28th) to win a reward of 400ITC! (Click here for the Official rules) Challenge Recap! We did an analysis of this Challenge and it was similar to our previous Challenges (2014 October Challenge, 2014 World Cup Challenge, 2014 New Year’s Challenge). For this year: 48% of Challengers completed the Challenge! We had Challengers came from all over the world (representing 66 countries). These were the top 5 countries participating: 1. United States 2. United Kingdom 3. Russian Federation 4. Spain 5. Canada Wow! We had over 49 languages that were learned in the Language Challenge. The 5 most popular languages that our Challengers were learning were: 1. English 2. Spanish 3. French 4. Chinese 5. Italian We also had a lot of much greater representation from our less popular languages like: ? Armenian ? Bengali ? Esperanto ? Galician ? Icelandic ? Lao ? Mongolian ? Punjabi ? Tamil ? Telugu ? Urdu ? Zhuang Other interesting tidbits: ? 71% of Challengers who submitted a Public Video Pledge completed the Challenge. Compared to the 48% that finished from all the Challengers, this really helps! ? One hardcore challenge winner completed over 100+ hours (and you know who you are). This is doing more than 2 hours of language lessons a day! Wow! ? 11.5% of our challengers were also Community Tutors or Professional Teachers on italki so many of them were not only learning but teaching during the challenge! ? 3.9% of the challengers just missed winning by 1 hour or less. Ouch. ? Planning ahead pays off!

Confidence is not enough. Of Challengers who told us their confidence levels, those who did not finish the language challenge were just as confident as those who did!   Plan ahead to create a structure and study habits to help you commit. ? Josie, Karthik and Aime our italki staff completed the Challenge and really improved their Chinese. They all won the reward but their bigger prize was that was they got to keep their jobs (just kidding)! Again, while it’s great that 48% of you that finished the New Year’s Challenge!

What You Should Know About Ordering Groceries Online

What You Should Know About Ordering Groceries Online Image via Pixabay.com Not only can time be an issue when you go grocery shopping, but the trip itself can be tiresome. Who actually enjoys going grocery shopping? Even the people waltzing from aisle to aisle in their Grinch pajamas arent dying with excitement to be in a grocery store. Sometimes, the trips can be downright awful. Finding available parking can be tough, especially if you’re at the one grocery store near campus. You know the one. Every college student decides that is the only store in the city and it becomes the designated spot for students to shop. And if parking is bad, then you know the inside of the store is going to be utter chaos. Waiting in line can take thirty minutes at times, even with the addition of self-service checkout stations in many grocery stores. However, if it’s a busy time of the day, even the line for the machines can wind back into the aisles. Don’t get me started on how aggressive people can get while grocery shopping and it happens to be extremely crowded. I’ ve lost count of the number of times that I’ve nearly been mowed down by old ladies whizzing down the spices aisle with their packed carts. Grocery shopping: it’s a dangerous sport. Naturally, when I heard about ordering groceries online, my curiosity was thoroughly piqued. Ordering groceries online is a relatively fast and new way to bring the groceries you need right to your front door, helping you skip the crowds of other grocery shoppers and time restraints. Many grocery stores have implemented this ordering groceries online into one of the services they offer while other companies have made this their specialty. If you’re interested in ordering groceries online, there are several things you should know before you make that first order: 1.  Not every grocery store offers this service. As I mentioned, ordering groceries online is a service that’s still being introduced in many grocery stores. This service is in the testing stage at some place. Stores want to see if this way of getting groceries will prove to be popular or if it’s something that no one will be interested in.  To see if a store offers a way for you to order your groceries online, check out their website and search for an option that will allow you to start adding items to your virtual cart. 2.  You might be paying more money Companies like Instacart, an online grocery-ordering service, offer items from grocery stores at slightly higher prices to help cover the cost of the service. Prices for things like eggs, bread, and cheese might be a little more expensive online. It’s up to you to decide if the increased price is worth the convenience of having your groceries delivered to you. 3.  Some stores offer grocery pickup instead Maybe you’ve noticed those giant, orange parking lots that have started popping up at some Wal-Marts. Those are the pickup areas. Customers can use their Walmart Grocery app to pick out and purchase goods online. After paying online with your credit, debit, or gift card, you’ll select from a list of available pickup times and days. From there, Walmart will notify you when your grocery order has been processed and rounded up by one of their employees. Then, all you have to do is drive into one of the pickup spaces, check in on your app, and an employee will bring your things right out to you. Fun fact: I used this service to pick up two giant bean bags before! It was great!  4. You’ll need to be home if you’re getting groceries delivered to your door This one probably goes without saying but you’ll definitely need to be at home if you ordered groceries online and you’re expecting them to be delivered soon. I list this as a “need to know” item because you should factor this into your decision on whether you want to order groceries online or not. Sometimes, the delivery time will change, according to how fast your delivery person is. If you think you have time to run a quick errand but your delivery person arrives at your house before you’ve finished, it could cause a problem. It’s best to pick a delivery time when you know you’ll have a few hours where you can be at home. 5.  You should tip your delivery person They did a lot of hard work for you! It’s only polite to give them a nice tip. There you have it! Have you decided if online grocery shopping is the thing for you?

The department also offers a first-year course on organic chemistry. Th is is something that is offered every year at every university.The department has thirty class numbers in all, and each class number has ten to fifteen students in it.

There are hundreds of great apps to help students in every aspect of school, from connecting with peers, to flash card assistance, to study help for their next big test. Does your student already have a tablet? Tech accessories are a great way to increase functionality and add a bit of flair to any tablet.
