Project Xeno

Image
Project Xeno is a game created by Team Kakushin, (me, Anis Meah, Jawad Rahman, and Fardin Chowdhury). It falls under the shooter/visual novel genre. As for the story, a character named John is late for school one day and ends up "accidentally" in a different station when he takes his usual train in the morning.Where is he and how did he get there? Join John on his journey to figure out these things in Project Xeno. Hello. My name is Brandon Wilson and I am one of the developers of Project Xeno and am also the leader of Team Kakushin. I was in charge of all of the scene backgrounds and animations for the characters in the game. For example, John's hair swinging back and forth at the top is a gif of two frames. All of the in-game characters have frames. I was also in charge of making the various forms of John, like making him face forward and back. Dialogue was a major part of my job too. Every scene except for some has dialogue. This game is very story driven as it is on...

Lab #20 Reflection Journal

Lab #20 was the last lab part of the calculator movement and works with comparison operators. This includes mathematical expressions like equal to, greater than, less than, etc. Here's how the program works, you input two numbers and then click any of the comparison operator buttons. It then returns either true or false depending on what the two numbers are. For example, if I input the first number to be 1 and the second number to be 2, and click on the greater than sign, it will return false. This is  because 1 is not greater than 2. If the numbers were swapped and I input 2 as the first number and 1 as the second number and then clicked the greater than operator, it would then return as true. This program consists of comparing, greater than, less than, greater than or equal to, less than or equal to, and not equal to. Web designers would need to know how to utilize these comparison operators in their programs in order to develop them to perhaps track when a variable's value m...

Lab #19 Reflection Journal

This lab was another part of the Calculator Movement but instead of working with arithmetic operators, it deals with assignment operators. Here's how it works. You start with an initial number, the one I chose for my webpage was 21. Then, a user inputs a second value to then either add, subtract, multiply, divide and modulo from. In contrast to lab 18, this lab does't just display the value of the first number and the second number only, it is consecutive once you start clicking buttons. For example, if I input 10 as my secondary number and click add, I will get 31 as a result. However if I click add again, instead of displaying 31 again, it will add 10 once more to display 41. Instead of just using arithmetic operators, the values are assigned meaning the value will stay until you reload the page of course. The result will keep changing as you play around with more arithmetic operators and numbers. These skills would be useful for a web designer to know because it could allow ...

Lab #18 Reflection Journal

Lab 18 consisted of working with arithmetic operators, similar to how a calculator functions. So I named labs 18-20 "The Calculator Movement". For this section of the Calculator Movement, I remade a webpage into a calculator that would calculate the arithmetic operators with two user inputted values using addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modulo. Basically how this functions is that a user inputs two values, one for the first number and one for the second number. After this they can click either of the buttons that run functions to calculate the numbers. For example if you input the numbers 1 and 2 then click the add button, the result at the bottom will display 3. If you subtract the numbers, you get -1. If you multiply the numbers, you get 2. When you divide them, you get .5. Lastly when you modulo them you get 1. This works with all numbers and works by storing both values as variables, calculating it and then displaying the result at the bottom. These sk...

CS Fair NYC 2019

The CS fair on April 2, 2019 was a very educational and great experience that taught me a lot. The trip started with us walking into a huge building. We walked up about 4 floors up and arrived at the armory track. It was where we could leave our belongings. When we look toward the center, we saw the CS fair. It was HUGE  as there were so many booths labeled either company or educational depending on what they had to offer. I grouped up with 3 other people the entire time. Those people were, Jawad, Anis and Jorge. The first thing we did was go to the first floor with the activities. We first went to a place where we had a hands-on experience with batteries and lightbulbs. Whenever we put the metal part connected to the light bulb with the battery, the voltage would travel through it and lighten the bulb. That was only if the right sides were touching each other, the positive with the negative and the negative with the positive. Making these were entertaining and we spend a good 20 m...
