This can take lots of time or be a simple implementation.

External Resources

I highly recommend a game engine like;

https://www.scirra.com/construct2 – Free download and creates some really cool games. DO NOT post up the games from the tutorials. The basic tutorial can be completed in about an hour and gives you a good starting point for your own game. The tutorials are available here – https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/top I strongly recommend working through Ghost Shooter to get the basic concepts.

http://html5gameengine.com/ – A list of game engines – some of these can also be used to create compiled games that work on smart phones.

http://www.processing.org/tutorials/ – Processing is a fantastic engine, mostly designed for writing Phone Applications

http://phonegap.com/ – PhoneGap allows you to create programs in html5 and Javascript and compile to native iOS and Android for phones.

Grading Criteria

Fully functional game that implements one of the suggestions from A13 will be worth the full 10 points. You can use comments from the discussion board or comments from your A13 submission.
