| Re: Call for Most Excellent YDACS Student Games - Most Important comments from a past student |
We have received some questions about our call for student games so here are some answers.
We are very proud of comments we received yesterday from the mother of one of our past homeschool students so we are sharing them below. My son was a student and has been pursuing Video Game designing ever since. He
utilizes MMF2 and his games are masterful. He is almost 13 and took all VGD
courses, I believe, a couple years ago. May he enter this ? We homeschool and
your classes have catapulted him into his passion of designing games. We can't wait to see everyone's games so the world can play amazing games created by YDACS students! Thanks! YDACS |

| This is my game, it took about 5 month's and in it you basically have to beat all the time zones. In some time zones I used material that has really happened. I hope Everybody enjoys trying to beat it. |

Cool welcome screen! For some reason we just stay on level one even when we slayed the skeleton and spider and exited screen right we wrapped and entered the same level from the left. Please let us know if we are doing something wrong. Thanks! YDACS |

| Re: Call for Most Excellent YDACS Student Games - Most Important comments from a past student |
| Great game, man! I liked it a lot! I completed it! |

This is Jake's Amazing RPG game! Right click the link and "Save As" to your disk. Be warned, it's H U G E - 212MB, so it will take a while to download. Thanks! YDACS |
 | Re: Call for Most Excellent YDACS Student Games - Most Important comments from a past student |
| I think this should've gone in the instructions page for my RPG game, but to access levels or go places, you mostly have to click on a lot of stuff. Eg: When you start in your house, you can click on the machine to refill your lives and baseballs, and when you click on the door, you go outside. Or if you click on a door to another house. |

We didn't realize that we could click on stuff since this is the first game that a student has made that has clicking on stuff! GREAT STUFF! Thanks! YDACS |

Wow, I also forgot to include that for the Gargoyal Battle and the Final Battle, to defeat the enemy you have to hold shift when next to the left or right of the frame to propel yourself upwards. Thanks! Jake |

Hello I have been doing this for a while and I decided to upload my game and its pretty simple to understand. This is just Version 1 though and I will post another game when its better. |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
|
When we got to the second level screen and clicked the enter second level button nothing happened. Please let us know if we are missing something. Thanks! YDACS |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
|
Here is my game, my game is a very challenging give it a shot. There is a lot of shooting. It is hard because the badguys shoot every second. I made it a little differnt then how you made the game. |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
| My game is super fun I added things that made my game a little harder and a lot more fun. I added things like some more trees, some rocks, a few chests that you score points from, and a big one-eyed alien dude. |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
|
This is my game. I only followed the videos and it's my first time, so it's not real fancy. I really got into the game, even though I am not a guy. So girls...check this one out! |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
|
Can guys play it too??? We hope so cause girl game developers rock! We created a standalone game and uploaded it as an ".exe" file so we can just download it and play it without needing Multimedia Fusion.  That is one good looking game! Nice design work. Can your Mad Scientist shoot stuff to defeat your enemies? We noticed that your play and exit buttons are flipped. Thanks! YDACS |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
| This is a game that you destroy enemies. There are lots of random things happening in each level, there are 4 levels. |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
|
We think there was a problem with attaching your game because we don't see it. Please try to attach it again. Thanks! YDACS |
 | Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
| Here is my game called "SOLTU." I think it's pretty fun. I hope you do too! |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
| Here is a game my mom made after I taught her what I learned in VGD 101 and 102. She's obsessed with the exploding mad scientist. But I still think it's a pretty good game for a grownup who never played any video games. |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
|
WOW!! SOLTU is a lot of fun and those are some of the best levels we have seen so far. We really like the story and how it builds from level to level. It will take us a while to figure this one out. We want everyone to know that this game developer is 9 years old! Thanks! YDACS |

This is a cool game from Nathan in California that he posted in another YDACS forum. Thanks! YDACS |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
| This is my first game. I tried to follow the directions as much as possible. I did add a few things like mushrooms and one tree from another game. The controls for the character are right arrow key for forward, left arrow key for back. I used shift for the jump key and control for the shoot button. |
| Re: YDACS Student Video Games for the May/June e-conference |
| My game is about a mad scienti trieing to get his items for hi mad evel experiment. And has to fast many tasks and old enemys. You will have to gather mony to buy stuff. |

This is Bodow!!!!! It is a work in progres here at home but it runs like a real game!!! Here are a few things that for you and me... 1. If you press the "E" key you will "jump" to the end of the curent level. On "THE BIG LEVEL" you must "pop" all the balons (press p to do this quickly)... 2. Can you please send a reply to Audra Hall with how to "publish" (make it so that I can run Bodow as a game without needing MMF2) that would be Great!!!!!! Thank you, † |

Announcing the selected games!!! Drum roll please... Jason's game Soltu! Jason is a California 9 year old and has not only developed a fun and interesting game but has also taught his mom how to create her own game! You can download and play both of their games. Jason is also working on developing some cool animations using the software taught in VGD103, Toon Boom Studio. We will create an Animation Student Gallery to post some of his animations there. Jake's game Revolution! Jake is a South Carolina 12 year old who started taking our courses when he was 10. Jake's game is amazing because he took all three of our video game design courses and then jumped off and figured out how to develop a Role Playing Game which is not something we taught in our courses! We will be working with Jake to develop a course on how to design and create RPGs using Multimedia Fusion! Please download and play their games for free! They will be famous digital artists and game developers someday and you can say you played their first games. Congratulations Jason and Jake!! To download and play Student Games please go to www.YDACS.com and then the Student Gallery. |

Hi Luke, Please post a .EXE and not the .MFA by starting a new post in Public Discussions. Just go to File - Build - Application to make the "find_the_dot.EXE." We will delete the "find_the_dot.mfa" files. Thanks! YDACS |
