Maze Game and Flappy Bird codes

In my Digitec class, we were shown how games were run. We were able to control the game by changing certain codes and putting the correct ones so the game could run smoothly. The games we were given to start off with were the Maze Game and the Flappy Bird Game. In the Maze game, we were tasked to find ways to get the character from one place to another. To do this we had to change certain codes and add some more in order to complete the game. Although as we progressed throughout the game, it got harder and more new codes were added. The Flappy Bird game was more simple than the Maze Game. No direction codes were needed simply because the bird would move forward by itself and all we had to do was make sure it didn't hit any obstacles. The coding on it was also simple, all we had to do was to make the outcome of the game. Like if we hit an obstacle, what would come next or if we completed the game then whats after that. Overall I really enjoyed both games and learned a lot about codes and gaming.

Why were you at that level? Because I was involved and I helped pack up and put away the gear after the activities were done.

What do you need to be a higher level? Show this out of class.

The fight to keep kauri dieback out of Warkworth's Parry Kauri Park

Ray Jansen speaks with John-Michael Swannix.The Kauri tree is one of the biggest/ oldest trees in the world that is going to slowly extinct if we don't do anything about the disease infecting it. This disease is called the kauri dieback, which has already spread throughout numerous parks and killed many trees. A specific park in Warkworth north of Auckland has a whole lot of kauri trees that they are trying to protect from the kauri dieback. Due to this problem, the President of the park, Ray Jensen has put broad walks and cleaning stations that help protect the park from the infection. Just like Jenny Marcroft and Mels Barton who have stated in one of there interviews about the kauri trees have said that the community should notice this, I believe that the council and the community should pay attention to these problems to stop our native kauri trees from dying of the Kauri Dieback disease/ infection. They could start by building broad walks and cleaning stations in areas where the disease hasn't spread to. This could be passed onto the government if the problem gets out of hand.

Government Decisions

I think that foreign landowners should not be allowed to sell NZ bottled water, simply because they might take all the credit when it becomes successful. That is my opinion, however, Marama Davidson (Green Party co-leader) had a lot to say about this. Her reason was a bit similar to mine, she stated that we to make sure that we are not giving away this resource to foreign land buyers to sell to the international corporations that reap profits from the expense of New Zealand's best interests.
