----------------------------------- do_pete Wed Mar 29, 2006 1:41 pm English project ideas ----------------------------------- I have to do a creative project for April 19th for the novel Lord of the Flies and my teacher said I have to incorporate technology into it, so I decided to make a computer game. I have no what kind of game to make. Does anyone have any ideas? ----------------------------------- MysticVegeta Wed Mar 29, 2006 4:28 pm ----------------------------------- No offence but do you honestly think this is Turing related? Also, have you checked this before? http://www.compsci.ca/v2/viewtopic.php?t=1022 ----------------------------------- do_pete Wed Mar 29, 2006 4:39 pm ----------------------------------- It is Turing related because I'm making it in Turing. And yes I have read that topic but I need ideas specific to The Lord of the Flies ----------------------------------- HellblazerX Wed Mar 29, 2006 8:37 pm ----------------------------------- well, you could make it like Age of Empires or something like that, where you control the boys, keep them alive, wage wars on each other, blah blah blah... ----------------------------------- darknoob Wed Mar 29, 2006 9:00 pm ----------------------------------- hmm...the grade 10s are doing lord of the flies... are u in Humberside? ----------------------------------- darknoob Wed Mar 29, 2006 9:02 pm ----------------------------------- how bout a game just like pacman but ur dot can run anywhere and have to avoid the other kids...is this the idea u looking for? ----------------------------------- chrispminis Thu Mar 30, 2006 12:00 am ----------------------------------- Just do an interactive story type thing. It isn't too hard, and it is definitely relevant and has much potential. Like this.. but for Lord of the Flies. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/hitchhikers/game_nolan.shtml Oh and darknoob? Who are you? I be at Humberside, but not everyone else here is. I believe it is at least TDSB curriculum for grade 10 LOTF if not all OSS's ----------------------------------- do_pete Thu Mar 30, 2006 12:23 pm ----------------------------------- Thanks for the ideas. I'm thinking of doing an RPG although I'm not too sure where to start. hmm...the grade 10s are doing lord of the flies... are u in Humberside? No I'm at Mackenzie High School in Deep River, that's about ~6 hours away from Toronto ----------------------------------- codemage Thu Mar 30, 2006 2:24 pm ----------------------------------- Why not "stick the pig", or throw rocks off a cliff at Piggy?:wink: If you're doing RPG, it would be cool to somehow represent the two "sides", as children switch over and moral changes. Sounds like a novel concept though - keep us updated. ----------------------------------- do_pete Thu Mar 30, 2006 3:03 pm ----------------------------------- Yeah, that's what I'm going to try to do, but if I can't do that I'll just make several simple minigames.
