How to make a game on PowerPoint
Expalin the Problem

It is new to me and I am not sure how to do it
Research and Analysis 1.Open Microsoft PowerPoint2.Create a new blank Presentation pressing Ctrl-N3.Make sure the first slide's layout is the title slide4.in the title box make your new game

5.**In the subtitle box,writeClick here**

 * 6.Create a new slide,one with a title and text,by clicking Insert-new slide**
 * 7.HighlightClick hereand link it to slide 2 by selecting it and right click and go to hyperlink**
 * 8.A box will pop up.You pick place in this Document,pick slide titles then slide 2**
 * 9.Create a scenario for this slide and create options to deal with the scenario**
 * .For example slide 2 will look like,you are lost in a desert, do you**

10.Highlight each option and link them to another slide that presents a new scenario.This new scenario will present the player with the consequences of his\her actions.there will be wrong choices and there will be right choices. 11.
 * Look for water.
 * Build a sand castle.
 * Shoot a camel.
 * Do nothing.
 * Continue the chain of linked slides until a final result is arrived**. Enough wrong choices will lead to a slide that reads something like 'You Lose' and enough right choices will lead to a slide that says something like "Congratulations you win!"

Analysis of my designs The first design is funny and has lots of adventure in it so it is possible 4 to 12 year old's will like it. The second design is adventureas because of the wilderness and in some parts funny. Justification for chosen design the design I chose was my first one because i thought it was very interesting,some parts are funny and the pictures and texts are more funnier and it will be easier to attract a 5 to 12 year old
 * ===Slide number=== || ===Description=== || ===Animation=== || ===picture=== || ===extra=== ||
 * 1 || how to play slide || grow shrink || question mark || can you use your skills and survive in the jungle? ||
 * 2 || first problem || zoom || an empty bottle || you are out of water do you drink from a river or get rainwater,boil it and drink? ||

 * 8 || you lose || bounce || sad face || you died ||
 * 9 || you win || bounce || balloons || well done you survived in the wilderness ||

I chose that game because i think many people like to play games with spies,secret agents and suspense.Also because it has a lot of cool pictures and funny text,and because it suites my product specification. PLAN

CREATE Final Product media type="file" key="ELSHADDAI CREATED THIS GAME.swf" width="360" height="270"

Changes made to the original Design I changed some of the texts on the game because it was funnier and matched up my product specification exactly.I also made some typos(mistakes) and had to correct them in the game and also some stuff i did not think was relevant and did not match my product specification in the PowerPoint.Also some of the pictures i got did not really match and make sense compared to the text i had written beneath them. Changes made to the original Plan I did not follow part of my plan because i had to make some changes to the original game and to do that i had to make some permanent changes to the plan. EVALUATE Results of tests I tested my game on a friend in class called Mateus. He said the game was cool,had awesome fonts,a good design and a cool background Mateus thought the game was easy to navigate and control. For example if you get it right,its right and if you get it wrong it is wrong. Mateus thought it was adventureas and really funny. Especially the part where it says •" Buy him fried chicken(might work)"

and it does work Mateus concluded by saying it was fun and will be simple for a 4 to 12 year old like the game

Recommendations for improvement

By doing way better and cooler animations. Mateus said i should time the animations properly so you don't always have to click. Mateus said i could have made the background better though I also tried it on luke and he said i could have added some sound to give it more effects

Self-evaluation of your execution of the design cycle

I think the deisgn cycle is a good way to structure and make a product,game or anything on a computer or even without on because it breaks the procedure the procedure into bits which make it easier for you to make a product and game on PowerPoint. It also keeps you organized which makes making the game easier and simple for anyone to malfunction.It is also relevant so i recommend it to any one that is trying or going to make a game on PowerPoint.
