Pros and cons Pros Cons Movement: It was easy to move the character around and to tell it where to go. Background: It was easy to make a background because it was easy to find in the tools and to add on to the game. Sequencing: The sequencing was easy to find because all we had to do was to click on a character and tell it when to go Sound: We could not make any sound in our game. However we were able to add word bubbles on the characters we wanted to talk.
