Day 4 - Shut Down and Power Off

Inspiration

Today has been much more productive for me in Virtuoso. I chose a map and began exloring it and adding natural and man-made objects to it. After I had successfully begun construction of a coral reef near the shore I began to think of what a player might do in "my world." If I approach the game creation from a problem-based learning approach, I can begin to think of a number of scenarios that students might experience. As I placed my beached boat, I imagined that it might have an associated oil spill. Perhaps that spill was affecting the local fish populations of the nearby reef. The world-building process can be quite inspirational. Let's see where this goes.
