Kahoot Quiz

This is an image from a website called Kahoot that specialises in making and playing quiz games. This image is of off my quiz I made for others to use.


This quiz was based around Video Games thoughout the decade. The reaserch of this was both a mix of looking at sites like google and wikipedia and my own personal experiance of playing games the past ten years and what my thoughts were on them, making questions that were based on personal experiance.


The image on the top of the screen is the set up of where the questions I have made are set up, they can be edited or deleted.


I got the images for the questions on goggle and used them for each question I asked. The images I choose didn't reveal too much information and were rather expressive and gave you the idea of what it was asking.

How I got the information for the questions were was a result of two things. The first being reaserching the information by using websties like goggle to look up the proper information to see if I got get it right. The second being my own personal experiance from playing these games, learning from the games from playing them or tuning in any game releated news.


I came up this this idea for a quiz when simply thinking up my previous experiance with video games.

HUD

This image is taken from a game called Hawken. And this particular image shows off one of the main features of the game and that is the HUD, or Heads Up Display.

The HUD shows important information on the players screen so that they're aware and can keep track of important things. Such as the number of ammunition you have, a map to show you were you are, a targeting display to show where you're aiming, the time limit, the amount of XP you have and the current rank you have.
