Game Design
Darby's First Steps
by Braeden Bakken
For this week, we were introduced to Scratch to begin preparing to design our original video games. In my first demo here, you can control Darby and help him reach every green tile leading up to the sun. It should be noted that the funky-looking creature shown here is not Darby's official sprite for the final product. This sprite is only being used to get a feel of where I stand in early development.
Into the Unfamiliar
by Braeden Bakken
In the first demo, "Darby" was roaming around in what is known to him as the "familiar." But now that we are adding in more levels, it is time for our hero to venture into the "unfamiliar." As "Darby" progresses, the background changes in color; the platforms change in shape and size. Once the real Darby is revealed, he will have to go on a journey into a world that will not come anywhere close to resembling what he has known before.

UPDATE (12/1/22): The sprite shown in this demo has been updated to what will be Darby's official look in the final product.
