DOS

DOS is microsofts disk operating system.
Booting is what appears when you first start the computer.
DOS is text based.
To communicate with DOS, the screen has a prompt where you enter a command.
Case insensitive mean that you do not have to worry about whether commands are capitalized or not, an example would be RD/S which could also be rd/s. This will delete all files, even subfolders, whether it is capitalized or not.

LOGOS





A LEGO Robot is a customizable toy that is programmable to do certain tasks. You can make it walk, react to sounds, move arms and legs, turn head.










I picked the Krispy Kreme logo :







It uses red which I guess would make me hungry, plus the green with it makes me think of Christmas which makes me happy and want sweet food. I just really love doughnuts.



A logo of myself would consist of a short person with lots of money because that is what I want in life since I do not have a lot now. There would also be a great dane and a big house behind me. I would choose a great dane because it is one of the dogs I want, along with a bulldog and a schnauzer. Then the house is big because I want to have a nice house when I grow up.

I picked this because I love the color green, music, xbox, chocolate, and smiling. It is pretty much what my life including friends.

Gaming

Name : Crazy Monkey Game

Story : The monkeys are going crazy because all of their bananas have been stollen by the Koala bandit Travis. You must fight your way through the jungle full of swaps, quick sand, tigers, and many other creatures to get to the hidden cave of Bandit Travis and unlock the secrets to the Banana Hideaway before the whole civilization goes crazy.

Sprites : Monkeys, use them to fight off enemies and collect special tockens for super powers. Climb trees and swing on branches to reach your destination. Use your nun chucks and karate moves to beat off fellow enemies as well.

Objects : Trees can be used for fast travel. The collectibals of super powers are good and give you a mega health boost as well. Quick sand pits will swallow you whole in a matter of seconds so you must be able to use your rope and team up with friends to rescue you.

Age Range : E, no violence, no cursing, no gore, cartoon humor.

Gaming Console : Computer, cheaper to format and an easier market for younger children. Does not require high end computers. Low budget.

I made this game as so because I want the younger kids of America to have a game they can play without parents having to worry about bad influences.

Games

Internet Based : Bubble Breaker

Sprites/Objects : Bubbles, they are used to build up color combinations against each other by clicking on the direction you wish them to go. You can controll them but they also act as objects as well.

Story : Eliminate all colors from the screen by making color combinations to burst bubbles. I would make it to where the bubbles act as a gate and you must deplete them all to get to your empire which is falling apart because of the evil bubbles.

Gaming Console : Borderlands

Sprites : Your main character depending on which you choose. You control them to use guns and vehicles to beat your enemies. The enemies range from Raiders to Scags (pig like things).

Objects : Cars, mountainr ranges, buildings, and save posts all help you within th game. You use guns and grenades for combat and drive land rovers around for faster travel.

Story : The story takes place in Pandora where several adventurers were lured for an attempt to get rich with its apprent minerals and alien artifacts. After it became obvious the planet was not much to offer many left. You are still stuck on the planet fighting of bandits and the alien creatures to hopefully find the "Vault" which is supposed to be filled with alien artifacts, technology, and wealth.
