People used outsides images in their games, and I didn't.
I think I would incorporate more images, and more complex levels.
I could have programmed by game to make the player lose points every time they hit the side of the maze, rather than just send them back to the beginning.

Butterfly Maze Game
Final Project: Butterfly Maze Game!
Instructions: Use the arrow keys to move the little butterfly towards the bigger butterfly.
Don't let the butterfly hit the walls or he will get hurt and sent back to the beginning.
Once you touch the big butterfly the levels will change on their own until you win!
Note: You must complete level 2 twice in order to advance.
Reflection:
I began the layout of my game by creating mazes as my background.
Challenges I encountered while creating my game were creating a point system, and getting the butterfly to go to the correct spot.
I tested it by letting my friends play and see what worked.
My game does work as I intended.
I am proud that the actual game itself works.
I am disappointed that the lines aren't neater.

Thursday Assignment 3-3
1. Olivia Sahagian: HiMirror
2. Nicole Sayman: Radar Pace Sunglasses
3. Lucas M.: Aira Visual Interpreter for the Blind
4. Nicole Brussard: HiMirror
5. Bailey Kingman: 3D Printer
The one I found most interesting was the HiMirror, that Olivia and Nicole wrote about, because I think it would be very helpful to me. I think it would have success in the market place now, because makeup is very big, and getting the right makeup is difficult, but with this device it could be very easy. I think it will also have success in the future, because the product is one of a kind, is a very interesting idea, and is not a completely unreasonable price.

Computer Tech Show 2017
At this tech event that occurred last month, many gadgets were showcased, including ones to help with sleep. One of the products made to assist sleeping habits, was an alarm clock that was designed to wake people up with the scent of a croissant. In past research done, it has been shown that smartphone use can negatively impact ones sleep. Sleep is vitally important, and helps people live a healthier lifestyle. The benefits to electronic usage with sleep is being able to track sleeping and patterns. Another gadget that was shown was a sleep tracker. This tool goes under the mattress and tracks movement and breathing and heart rates. Whether or not these products are beneficial, depends on the people who are using them.

The purpose of this article is to give information on websites that work quicker, and why. It talks about cached data, and how this can slow down and cause problems with a computer/website. Caches can speed up websites. The article also discusses the work of a programmer in this process. They have tested their faster system with two websites, and they have seen improvement.This article also discusses the difficultly of creating caches to speed up data bases that run sites. Often these improvements can lead to issues, like bugs in the site. Chlipala said "Rather than requiring the programmer to identify the results that need to be discarded, the [MIT researchers'] system does this automatically, by analyzing the different requests that the application makes to the database."
