Unit 2 Reflection: I think, after all the commands that I have learned, I almost have no limits of what I want to do on Terrapin Logo. I can make any shape with any color of any size of any width. Or, well, just about. I enjoyed playing around with these commands and pairing them up with other commands to make new things. What's more, I now know how the basics of games work, and how they make a character move up, down, or any other way.

Unit 3 Reflection: Now I know how to complete a bunch of commands at once, making creating patterns and shapes easy and efficient. Its nice to slowly see how to start with the basics and then make more and more complicated stuff. Staring with only directions and turns, now I am able to make shapes and drawings and alter colors and widths.

Introduction:


 * [Adrienne]**

I am new at AES, and I like to learn, read, have fun, draw, but most of all play video games. Which is why I want to learn how to make games. Which is why I'm here.
