Introduction

When it comes to programming I do not have a huge amount of experience, I have dabbled in flash once or twice since around 4 weeks ago I hadn't touched it for around 2 years or so. So far I’ve managed to make a simple game of pong which I tweaked to make it a 4 player game of doubles tennis in which each player could use a racket each or one person could control either pair as one mirror the other.

When it comes to creating a flash game I'm looking forward to detailing the actual storyline and characters making my imagination real is an awesome aspect as I have literally hundreds of ideas and will be more than passionate about transferring them from my head onto paper and then hopefully onto the screen.

There are several things I'm not looking forward to, the first being the actual programming its not easy in the slightest and although I will give it my best shot I do find it difficult fingers crossed I can get the hang of it. I'm also not looking forward to the art side, I love to draw but I’m no Picasso in fact quite the opposite it's another factor I will need to spend some time on improving.

Today other than making this blog I’ve been looking over how to make a simple 2D shooter and fixed a few bugs in my pong game nothing boundary breaking however a little closer to my goal. Today has been manageable nothing overly complicated or hard just getting more excited about getting stuck into the task at hand!

I have got to begin my presentation on how to adhere to a brief and read though my assignment documents more thoroughly than I have done so far.
