 Tell me what this is: Our team decided to create a maze for two players to race through trying to get to the finish line.  There are also a few traps that make the game more then just a race and also gives it more excitement for the gamer.  As they race to the finish line trying to dodge traps or to get to them before the other player to through there competition off their track.

1.    I learned how to use Scratch.  The process taught me that there is a solution to every problem but some solutions might work better then others; you just have to keep working through it.

2.   The teams variety in skill and experience help the team look at every problem from different angles to find the best solution.  It also helped us get creative in making our game.

3.   We solved all the problems and everyone in the team helped and participated in one way in another

4.   One problem was that the sprite went through the walls backwards and that it also went through the corners we solved that by getting rid of the backward control code.

5.   We could have made more traps and a longer maze for the players to race through.
