Globaloria Exam

1. Our game topic is bridge building, you must amswer a mathmatical question to get a peice of the bridge.  Mathmatical skills.
2. We had the same ideas so it came together pretty easy. It was just something we both liked.
3. We worked together on everything for our game.
4. Not alot of reasearch went into our game topic.
5. There is a title page with two butons, you can click the "start" button or the "How to Play" button, then you will be asked a series of question and if you answer one wrong its game over but you get a peice of the bridge for every question you answer right. This hasnt changed since we started constructing our game. There was no need for change.
6. The wiki has helped me the most in my learning because everything is right there when you need it.
 7. Working with flash has been the most dificult so far. All i can say is you learn as you go.
