Animation Update
I have decided I dont like the rabbit!!!
I will possible replace with a talking/not talking carrot????????????
The next page of the animation will be:
'The aim of the game is to get the sun (a popping sound will be heard then a sun will appear to indicate what the sun icon looks like) and the cloud (same thing will happen as the sun) to work together in creating the perfect carrot (again, popping sound and carrot appearing)
Next . . . .

Website
In todays lesson I carried on working on the coding for the website so the user was able to enter a code given to them at the end of the big screen game so they could access more content on the website. I also started to work on the css for the website and got the layout more or less finished. This week I will carry on working on the website and try get links and pages added.
Sorry Guys, BT's fault!!
I have not added a post for a while due to moving and having no internet connection, all BTs fault I have to admit!
I have done a story board for the instructions animation, as we decided an animation would be a lot quicker and easier for the player to understand.
It will structure like this:
Speak and voice (hopefully) saying 'welcome to the Dig In Game, Let me explain how it works....'
The next view will explain to the user what the game stage is, what is what and why its like that.
Then it will move onto explaining the buttons and how they controll the desired effect, then we will go onto a small example clip of what happens when the combination of sun and cloud work well together.
Now that is ok when I saw Sarah and Phill today I will start building in Flash!!!! :0S
Well I will upload any progress asap on my whopping 0.5 meg supplied to me by BT, Id best be careful, That speed is sooo greedy!!!!! >:0(
