I need ideas for my extra credit assignment. I am terrible at making up storyboards. Anything will work for me so please help! :] I really need the extra credit! Also, I don't understand how to make if/else statements so I will need help making one of those for the animation I make.

Write an animation or interactive environment/game using at least the following components: 2 objects, 2 methods that you created with at least 3 actions in each method, one If/Else statement, a loop, and a function. This animation or game should make sense.

Search the Alice site for: Ideas for Alice programs.

Dick Baldwin provided 9 great ideas for Alice programs for those indiviuals like me whom have no creative thoughts. :(

As for help with the decision control structure, If/Else, I suggest you speak with your Instructor - I would not want to guide you in a direction that might be different from how (s)he is trying to teach programming.

Good luck with your extra credit project!
