Junior Developer projects
Game dev: what is it all about?
Intro
In this course, students strengthen their core computer programming understanding by learning about, events, coordinates, variables, conditionals, functions, iteration, arrays, and artificial intelligence. Students had multiple opportunities to learn, practice, and apply these coding concepts within Minecraft: Education Edition. By understanding a multitude of programs and tricks to manipulate and control their worlds students took the time to culminate these skill by creating a mod of their own. We plan to introduce each of their creative creation and give a short tour of their projects in game.
Intermediate
In this track we’ve spent time developing games working in the c# coding language. We learned debugging, sprite manipulation, audio insertion, and honed a myriad of other technical abilities. This track is engaging and challenging as we worked tirelessly to develop games reminiscent of 1980s arcade games. These games, often with shooting systems, health trackers, and other fun to develop elements, also showed off the skills we earned in the process of the program.
Advanced
Advanced Game Development is a challenging course that tests students developer skills. Introducing them to a team work environment and how to effectively manage their time; while working to meet an assortment of goals and due dates. Developers also work on their communication skills, having a number of development stand ups, both holding them accountable for their groups progress and introducing them to the benefits of feedback. Here we brainstorm, conceptualize, scope, develop, iterate, test, and finally build our games starting from scratch.
