'''Agenda:'''
* Complete [[Scratch - Frogger Game]]
* If you completed the Frogger Game, then continue adding additional bonus features

== Thursday (9/26/13) ==
'''Agenda:'''
* Bouncing sprites animation review
* Introduction to Basic Game Programming
*# Start game
*# Run forever (game loop)
*# Include rules in your game loop
*# Do the above for every sprite
* Introduction to Data & Variables
* Begin work on your Basic Frogger Game
*# Give your game a simple background
*# Have your stage play some background music
*# You will need several sprites.
*# 1 player sprite will be the player and it will cross the screen by using the keyboard.
*# 3-5 enemy sprites will be used to move back and forth horizontally or vertically across the screen (the number depends on how big you make them)
*# When you play your game, you want to cross the entire screen without hitting the enemy sprites.
*# Start the player off with 3 lives (HINT: use a variable)
*# If you hit any of the enemy sprites:
*## Subtract one life away
*## Play a sound effect of getting hit
*## Say "Ouch!"
*## Move the player back to its starting location
*# If lives hits 0, then say "Game Over" and end the game
*## Play a sound effect for the "Game Over"
*# If the player reaches the other side of the screen, then say "You win!"
*## Play a sound effect for winning
*#* Hint: You can use all sorts of different ways to detect how you hit the other side of the screen
*#* Create a long sprite that you detect hitting OR...
*#* Check the y-coordinate of the sprite and if it is greater than the upper bound of the screen

'''Agenda:'''
* Control Blocks
** repeat X times block
** forever block
** if statement blocks
* Forever + if on edge example
* Forever + if + keys example
* Bouncing sprites animation
*# Your Scratch program should have at least 5 different sprites
*# When the program starts, each sprite should point in a random direction (check out the '''Operators''' blocks)
*# Each sprite should then continuously move around, bouncing off the edges
*# Try out some different things like pen actions and color changes
*# Add another sprite that you can control '''smoothly''' using the keyboard (we'll call this the player sprite)
*# If a bouncing sprite touches the player sprite, then make the bouncing sprite disappear

*# Be sure to put their name in the different evaluation sections
*# Be professional in your evaluation.
*# Turn in the evaluation sheet when you are done.
