Ello, Badges for FOSS@RIT have been made. There is still quite a list of old hackathons and other achievements that I need to make badges for, but a large chunk is done! Attached are some badges I made today: AttachmentSize foss badges green.pdf 262.16 KB ...

Hi all, I redesigned the character for lemonade stand. I did not think the previous character was transferrable enough for players across the world. So I gave him a lemon head. That may have been a strange solution, but I thought it would be better to take race and gender out of the equation. Also having a lemon for a head is kind of funny! However, I am a bit worried I am designing this for too young an audience. Maybe lemonheads are cool in third grade, but once fourth grade rolls around the ...

Hi everyone, I have been bouncing around a lot with what I was working on today. I got a decent amount done. Here is a run-down: Lemonade Stand: -I have been working on Lemonade Stand game screens. (And fixing up and re-aligning some shapes on the cash box image) I want to revisit them some more tomorrow, so I haven’t committed them yet. -I changed the layout for the screen. I do not know if that can be easily done code wise, or if there was a specific layout that needs blank space in certai ...

Today I worked mostly on Sky Time business. I edited the essays, re-shot most of the video, and set up the activity page for it! :D http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en- US/sugar/addon/4670 I also separated the FOSS and Fedora badges into separate svg files. https:// github.com/FOSSRIT/badges/tree/master/art ...

Today I mocked up some standards for each group of badges. (FOSS@RIT, Fedora, and OLPC) None of this is set in stone! I am currently having several internal debates about how some of this stuff will work. I would love to talk this out with you guys tomorrow and make some decisions on what the design standards of the badges will be. I heard back from a couple of people on the Fedora design team. Very positive feedback :D but also some suggestions for functionality. See attached PDF AttachmentS ...

Hello Everyone, There have been some great things happening here in Sky-Time Land. We had the game set up on some of the FOSS Box computers during imagine RIT, and it was a hit with the kids! Don’t trust my word, this video of one child's excitement speaks for its self: http://jlk9713.cias.rit.edu/videos/index.gif I have to say I was not 100% confident that the game would be fun. The concept is based around one core mechanic. (Matching times by ...

www.playskytime.com Success! We will be at Imagine RIT in FOSS Box in the Innovation Center! The download is not quite ready yet, but should be up shortly! This week we rethought the interface and user interaction with the keyboard. At Ryan’s suggestion we are now using the shift keys to move the clock hands. This allows the player to use both hands comfortably. We also have some plans for positive reinforcement with animation of clock hands when the student gets ...
