- 2. Outline of my idea • Create a matching game on the theme of geography. • Drag the flags and capital cities to the correct country. • Will focus on the British Isles. • Will contain fact files on each country.
- 3. Purpose of making this game Teach children about the geography of Britain. Fully animate my characters for an actual game. Learn how to use more advanced features of Flash and ActionScript code.

- 9. Prototype Beta version. Blank map of Britain, national flags and capital cities. Flags, characters and names are draggable. Scoring/verification system to be added. Also planning to add names of countries as well as capital cities.
- 10. Target audience Multicultural children under 8 years old Primary school May have just moved to the UK
Hinweis der Redaktion
- The animated cartoon I am creating in my specialist practice module could be possibly marketed with this game as a multimedia package – which will reach out further to my target audience, as my cartoon will also be aimed at primary school children, and focus on the British Isles.
- Initially, players will drag the flags to the correct countries. If all the flags are correctly matched up, the next ‘level’ will be to drag the names of the four capital cities (London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast) to the correct countries. Click on the characters at the side of the screen to see fact files about their country. You can also drag them around the map!
- Clicking on a character will make them talk about their country, giving basic facts (e.g. capital city and population). You can interact with them even further by dragging and dropping them and landmarks around the map.
- When clicked on, the characters will say some basic facts about their country. The country fact files could look something like this.
- I have already coded the characters, flags and city names so that they can be dragged around the map. I have yet to implement a scoring/verification system. I am also planning to add the names of the countries as well as the capital cities.
- My game will be aimed at primary school children under 8 years old. It will possibly be suitable for children who are from other cultures, but have just moved to the UK, and so will want to learn about the geography of their new country.
