Senior Project: The Series

       Four weeks out of the way and it finally feels like I am making some amount of progress. Last week I had said that the code I learned didn't seem to be working, so even after trying (and failing) to get the code to work on the learning program, I realized that maybe javascript wasn't the direction I needed to head in. So instead I have been working on making pictures to display in an HTML5 game. YAY!

       This will make things much easier because HTML is code that I definitely know I can make a game of sorts out of. It will take a lot of show/hides and z-index changes but at least I don't feel as lost anymore. The other half of this week that I didn't spend hating Javascript, I spent on illustrator and photoshop to make the images for the game. There are times that I really wish I was a better artist, but I did what I could.  The game will look rough due to the realistic backgrounds being bombarded by weird cartoonish creatures.

       I guess I can't complain, at least I'm making something that I don't completely hate. It will probably look weird but at least I can say that I had fun making it.
