Reflection Questions

  1. If you used any outside resources to help complete your submission (websites, books, people, etc) list them here.
  1. What was a challenge you encountered in creating this submission (be specific)? How did you overcome it? (recommended 200 - 400 words)
  • When I wanted to set up the images on the gamebuttons, I actually wanted to make it brighter after clicking it. I realized that background set up was permanant for a button, and I know there would be a way to solve. But I just went to more creative way that I can just show the image when they are clicked. It was much more efficient because I wouldn't need to look up all the images and still show the effects as I wanted.
  1. What questions about web development do you have after completing your submission? (recommended 100 - 300 words)
  • I was wondering how they can layout the whole web pages with various features. For me, the layout and alignment was the most difficult part.
  1. If you had a few more hours to work on this project, what would you spend them doing (for example: refactoring certain functions, adding additional features, etc). Be specific. (recommended 100 - 300 words)
  • If I had more hours, I would add more features such as putting a timer on the top right after the play is over. So user can check up the timer while solving the problem. Or I want to add instuction page, so anyone who plays this game for the first time, they can go read and play it.
