Hi everyone,

Thanks for coming Saturday even though the weather was dreadful.

This week, I helped Bo Peep found her sheep! Some of you did the same and some used ideas like Minecraft Steve finding Iron Ore and Diamonds, Knights finding dragons or a Princess finding flowers.

Before we even started our game this week we talked a little bit about File Management and about the importance of keeping your files somewhere you can access them quickly and giving them a meaningful name.

So to this end, we all created a folder where we will be keeping our files in the future and within that we had a sub folder for this weeks files.

We started our game by drawing our background on our stage:

Unfortunately, due to internet problems we could not search the internet for images for our Sprites, but we could still use the sprites from the Scratch Library.

This week, we decided to move our main sprite using the arrow keys. For this we had to learn a small bit about the X and Y axis and I gave you a little tip on how to remember which is which!

Hope you all enjoyed this week, aee you next week when we will be starting a new game!

Here are the notes for this weeks session in PDF CDA-S7-Week_05-BoBeep.pdf
