#*Compare to Conquer - <br />In this game the user is shown two expressions and an equality option. The player has to click on the expression which has greater value or the equals sign if the numbers are equal. With each wrong answer one life is deducted. Also an another game can be implemented which shows different measuring units (example- gram and kilogram) to compare.

Also an another game can be implemented which shows different measuring units (example- gram and kilogram) to compare. A simple vedic maths trick for multiplication of a two digit number with 11 can be included in this game by showing tutorial in the beginning and using expressions based on this trick in the game.

#*Math Ship - <br />In this game the player is given two mathematical operations simultaneously and a space racer is shown on the screen moving in space. To dodge the meteors one has to answer either the expression given on the left which makes the spaceship move left or the expression on the right which makes the spaceship move to the right. Also a simple vedic maths trick for multiplication of a two digit number with 11 can be included in this game by showing tutorial in the beginning and using expressions based on this trick in the game.  

#*MasterMind - <br />Mastermind is a traditional code-breaking game. In this game the player has to guess a 4 digit number using as much less steps as possible.

#*Motion Capture -<br />Leaves of a particular color will be shown flying in a particular direction on the screen. For the green leaves the player has to answer the direction of motion while for the brown leaves player will have to answer the direction in which they are pointing. Each round shows one type of leaves flying in a random direction (up, down, left or right) and pointing in a random direction (up, down, left or right). Player has to reply according to the color of the leaves. This game helps enhance the presence and flexibility of mind.

Given below is the detailed information about time contribution to the GSoC project. As I do not have any other long term commitments this summer, completion of this project is my top priority.

During the length of this semester (i.e. Until May 06) - I can easily manage to squeeze at least 6 hours a day (due to classes in the daytime) on weekdays and 8-10 Hours a day on weekends. In total around 45 hours a week.

My next semester will start from July 25 and as the workload is very less in the starting of the semester I think I can dedicate 7-8 hours daily in this duration (July 25 - August 23).

'''If your project is successfully completed, what will its impact be on the Sugar Labs community? Give 3 answers, each 1-3 paragraphs in length. The first one should be yours. The other two should be answers from members of the Sugar Labs community, at least one of whom should be a Sugar Labs GSoC mentor. Provide email contact information for non-GSoC mentors.'''

Among kids learning mathematics and taking up mental ability exercise is usually associated with anything but fun. But learning can be a lot easier if we move from learning to playing. When we play we level up , when we level up we get interested , when we are interested we grow , when we grow - that's when we learn.

Also more game developers who like this idea of making learning fun will be attracted towards this activity and the Sugar Labs Community as they can dedicate their innovative ideas for teaching based games to such activities.

I will be writing a blog frequently about my work which can be a good tracking record of the project and will share it with mentors if required. Also I'll be sharing each game on a Github Page for reviews which can help in tracking my progress.

'''Is there anything else we should have asked you or anything else that we should know that might make us like you or your project more?'''

Can't think of anything as such right now. Will edit this answer if something crosses my mind.

I think what sugarizer lacks as a fun to learn software is a collection of educational games. This project has potential to make Sugarizer an even better place to learn for children than it already is. I  will try my best to make this activity the best attraction Sugarizer has among children.

 

Really looking forward to work on this project for the summer. Life is good.
