Across the Board: Swift Playgrounds Puzzle

The last puzzle I successfully completed was across the board. It is the 4th puzzle in the functions section. In it, I had to make a new function. I named mine, getGem. In that function, I made it go forward, collect gem, and then that repeated one more time. I used it 3 times throughout the level. Nothing was exceptionally hard about this level. I just had to use my new function, with turning and moving forward in between. Below is a picture of the level I did.

 

Tynker Quiz

Basically, what I did with this project was create a very short story. The story was that the character I created was going into a haunted house. You got to pick what you think would happen, and when it does happen. You pick if you were right or wrong. I added sound for each of the backgrounds I had, and took time to pick the perfect backgrounds, make my character, and think of the story. I was actually hoping to make my character do some kind of dance from tynker’s animations. But when I tried, I started up my project again to test it and nothing worked. I’m not sure why, but it didn’t work after I put in the animation so I had to take it out. Sorry if the picture below has bad quality, I took a screenshot and that’s how it came out. I named it “My Quiz” on Tynker.

 

Writing Swift Code

I just wrote my code in the page 2 of answers in swift playground. I made it ask what the date is, for a color, and I made it say that you won a prize. I think it was not hard, but it was also not interesting and fun. I wasn’t super interested in it, but I don’t think it’s hard. It’s actually pretty easy. It wasn’t super challenging, but sometimes it says you had an error and I couldn’t figure out why.

 

Music Video Blog Post

The music video I picked is by “✨flowerangel✨” I picked this video because I liked how it all came together. The girls sitting down were singing, and there was a girl on the drums. The music matched up with the video because I could hear drums in the background and singing. I also liked how all the girls in the video had little lines coming out of their heads to symbolize sound. There was a lot of detail put into this; the drummer’s line was yellow because it is a different kind of music than the singer’s blue lines. The background of a stage with bright lighting went perfectly with the animation also.
