triangle
square
5 pointed star
hexagram
octagon

Project #2

Create a simple game. Create a maze(s) the user must program a path through the maze, or any other game you can think of that requires drawing lines.

Possible Design Hint

Layers can determine what will be displayed on top of other element. For example, the turtle sprite will always be displayed on top of all other layers.

Layer	Use/Description
Layer3	top most layer used for the turtle sprite
Layer2	used for the lines drawn by the turtle
Layer1	used for the grid
Layer0	bottom most layer used for background images, mazes, background color, ...

Note: Layers are independent and can be displayed or removed without effecting the other layers.

Possible Layout Example

Little Turtle is designed to build a command sequence a few commands at a time.

Enter one or two commands.
Run the commands.
Correct the commands or add new commands.
Reset the "Drawing Area".
Got to step 2.
