Begin Greenfoot Game

Before we begin, check to see if Greenfoot is still installed on your station.  If not, follow the previous instruction and install it.  Then we will resume our basic game creation.

We will again be accessing the Joy of Code video tutorials for Greenfoot: http://blogs.kent.ac.uk/mik/category/joy-of-code/page/2/

Last week we used tutorial #4 to begin "Trick the Turtle".  Basically we were able to add "instances" of the turtles to our "world" and have them behave as we programmed them to.

This week we will be continuing with the Trick the Turtle project using tutorial #5 (in Clearlake) and tutorial #6 (in both Clearlake and Lakeport).  These two tutorials will add "If Statements" and "Random Behavior" to our game.

Time permitting we will also work through tutorial #7 to give the turtles some food, and then on to tutorial #8 to do some basic housekeeping and clean up our code.
