Week 12-The Game Proposal

    The last step in creating our game is the game proposal.  Creating the game has been a challenging but fun journey.  There was a lot of questions and confusion about what was expected for the game proposal. After some much needed clarification, we could all breath a sigh of relief about what we needed to present to the students.  Our group discussed different ways to "hook" the students into wanted to know more about our game.  As a group our goal was to take components of our game and draw the students in.  The way we decided to do this was to use our game opening and the beginning parts of the game, creating and avatar/picking a region, and create a movie trailer.  I believe that our game opening is very catchy and will hook the students. As a group we have worked to gather images of different locations and avatars that may be seen in our game.
    This process has been an eye opening, I never thought that I would be part of a group that would create a game proposal which could eventually turn into a real game.  This has been a wonderful learning experience that has opened my world to a new type of learning and learning environment for students.  As we worked through designing the game I had my students in mind and could visualize them playing the game.
