my goals

My overall goal is to focus on a single language ( python, c, etc...) that would then be continued into creating online flash games. By Thanksgiving I would like to learn how to read my language. By Christmas i would like to create multiple small and/or a large program in its rough stage. By the end of the term I would like to create a game that would be widely availiable with also being fun to play with some complex ideas. I will just need time and a computer with an internet acess. I would put my work on an online file storage. You could show my work by revealing it to game sites and to my pupils.

UPDATE
  • What is the overall goal? One sentence should sum it up.
    • to have a mediate amnount of knowledge in the gml code and able to write games, and useful codes.
  • Describe the goal in greater detail. This should be a paragraph.
    • I really want to create a game that is wideley availiable to the general online public. a working game that is fairly good to lok at but very fun to play. i decided the gml code ( game maker language) because it seemed failry easy to learn and ahs a lot to do with the games that i would be interested in learning.
  • What are the deadlines? A list with descriptions is fine.
    • Thanksgiving: since there is only 3 days of class before the thanksgiving break has arrived, i would like to learn how to red the basics of gml wich i am currently working on.
    • Christmas: by this time, i would like to have the ability of creating simple prgrams to get me started toward the bigger picture.
    • End 'o' Term: i would like to have a detailed game that i have found a website/s for that is fun to play and involves fairly complex code that i will be aspiring to learn.
  • What skills, techniques, materials, sto and tools do you currently have that will be useful on the project? A bulleted list with descriptions should work.
  • i will need as follows:
    • time- to be able to learn
    • a computer- to do the code on
    • internet access- to get info on how to write it
  • How will you be able to show the progress of your project?
    • i will find awebsite where i can imbed my code onto.
  • How will you be able to know if you have met your goal? A paragraph would be good.
    • I will know if i have met my goal by having an operating game that would be fun to play, involve complex code and is widely availiable to the internet populus.
