End of the Project

Hey,

Well it seems that my project has run it's course. To finish off our project and tell the rest of my class about what I did I had to make a presentation in front of the class and tell them about what I did. It went pretty well over all. I really enjoyed this project and I feel like I learned a lot. I basically completed all the goals I set at the beginning of the year, with the exception of completing all of the achievements. I just want to thank my teacher Mr. Watson for helping Kyle and I out with our projects and taking time out of his busy schedule to play the game with us. I also want to thank Kyle for actually making the server for us to play on and for this whole project to actually happen. I feel like me choosing Minecraft as my project was a good idea because I really didn't have any trouble with my motivating myself to make progress. I hope that my next project will turn out just as well as this one did!

Thanks,

Braden

End of December

Hey,

Well we finally did it, we beat the Enderdragon! We collected all the supplies that we needed and found "The End" portal and beat the game. When we found "The End" portal we dug up from where it was and made a little tube to get to the surface.

This is the tube that we built to get easy access to "The End" portal

This is The End portal

We got Mr. Watson to help us out to beat the Enderdragon. The Enderdragon was actually surprisingly easy to beat! Considering we had three people to fight it, it wasn't that bad.

This happens when you beat the Enderdragon

This portal appears when you beat the Enderdragon

When you walk in the portal it teleports you back to your bed you last slept in

Once we beat the Enderdragon and everything and found the portal back to the real world, there was this egg by where the Enderdragon died. When we tried to hit it, it teleported to a different spot. Apparently it's called the Ender Egg, but it actually has no meaning whatsoever. Also once we jumped into the portal back to the real world this dialog screen came up tell this story or something. It was really weird because it didn't make any sense. We all got tired of reading it because it was REALLY long, so we just pressed 'escape' on the keyboard and it exited the screen and went back to the minecraft world.

Here is some of the dialog that was at the end of the game

At this point the only thing I have left to do is to finish all the achievements. I only have four achievements left that I have to get which hopefully shouldn't be too hard, but I'm hoping I'll get those done. 

While Mr. Watson was getting some supplies to go fight the Enderdragon, Kyle and I decided to have a little bit of fun. 

This is a little island that we decided to blow up with a little bit of TNT ;)

By the end of the week I will hopefully have all the achievements that I need to finish all of my goals for this project. Fingers crossed!
