Indie Game:The Movie

1. What are some of the differences between "big games" and "independent games"?
-There is no exact, widely accepted definition of what constitutes an "indie game".However, indie games generally share certain characteristics. Indie games are developed by individuals, small teams, or small independent companies; companies that are often specifically formed for the development of one specific game.
-Indie game developers are generally not financially backed by video game publisher and usually have little to no budget available while big games are on the opposite side.
Ex: Super Meat Boy (Independent game) - Call Of Duty (Big Game)
2. What are some of the difficulties the developers in the film have to overcome?
- No Funding
- Resources
- Protecting Your Work
- Flooded Market
- Publicity
3. What do you think is attractive about developing an indie game? What do you think you would like about working on an indie game? What do you think you might not like?
- You can put your own story in your own game or change any detail you want without asking anyone or any company about their opinions. I would like to put in my own story for the game and i don't like publicity for the game. 
4. What is some advice you might have for someone trying to create their own game based on what you learned in the film?
- Play a lot of games to learn about how they made the games
- Write it out because you need to prove your work
- Play test
- Make a prototype so that you can add everything you want to the game and make it better before publishing to community
5. What is the best part of completing the creation of a game for the developers?
- You can see how good is your result after you have been working very hard to create and develop the game.

Scartch Level 2 - Racing Game


1.I had many difficulties such  as how to setting 2 players, how to activate the game... because scratch is new to me. For instance, it`s really complicated to set 2 players moving separately because if we press up button , both of them will move. So i have to set everything different for each one so that this one will not be affected while we control the other.
2.I added the countdown before starting and two players because it will make this game be my own game and it will be more interesting, more attractive to players
