Project Notes

I wrote this game to commemorate a canoeing trip to the Boundary Waters Canoeing Area. I was trying to capture the feel of trying to hit the portages without missing and being washed down stream. Canoes never go straight. They tend to turn away from the side you paddle on. In this game you are using the keys to choose your strokes. "F"orward, "B"ack or "J"stroke, and the side you are paddling on, with the arrows. After you select a stroke, use the space bar to paddle. The portages are marked with two red flags.
