What genre I'm most interested in.

     What game genre I'm most interested in? I honestly don't know yet. Since it has to be educational, it will be complicated. If I want to make an action or an adventure game, it will have to be complex since I must integrate educational standards in to it. What about racing? That would be an extremely hard educational game to make. Sports would not be to complicated to make educational. Some kids want to learn more about sports.
I know this blog is short. I would have more to write if I had a genre that I'm most interested in designing my game. That's all for now.

Why Privacy is Important.

     When it comes to using the internet and setting up accounts on different websites, you need to be careful! When you set up accounts, they ask for some of your personal information. Websites say they are security protected, but you can't believe everything you read on the internet. Also, when you're on a website, on the side of the page you will see ads for free items. They're scams. They ask for your personal information. Such as your social security number and credit card numbers. Never do that. Another thing is getting "phished". "Phished" is getting spammed by emails and other forms being hacked. When this happens you need to change your password. Make sure you are the only one that knows your password. Not even your best friend. Just don't.
     Most people think that privacy really doesn't matter, but it does! When it happens to you, you'll realize that your were wrong.

My first blog!

What kind of game do I want to make? That's a good question. I honestly don't know what type of game I want to make yet. There are different types of games to make out there. The decision is the hardest part, I think. Do I want to make an educational game or an adventure type game? Whatever the funnest kind of game to make will be fine with me. As long as I have fun doing it and not getting frustrated about it. Since I love to play video games myself, I want to have a good experience in this class. Game design is something I am highly considering doing after high school.

What am I most scared or excited about? I'm not nervous or scared about anything in this class. I'm excited because I will learning a lot about game design and actually designing a game. I'm very excited about this class. I don't know why anybody would be nervous about it. Awesome teacher and you're learning something awesome as well.

I guess that's all I have to really say.
