Just leave your opinion.

Game Proposal: Xonix

Davide Gomba — Mon, 11 Oct 2010 15:29:11 +0000

Hi.

I've been reading through Tetris Lesson. (I cannot join you on saturdays and sundays at that time 8:00 PM CET . sorry guys), but I'd propose a game to be realized with any of you interested: Xonix. I tried (with no luck) to embed a video of the game in the page.

Anyway I'll try to sum up and split up in code the game, for you to follow the all project.

Why don't we share our experiments with Processing? After all we are here to learn with each other!

Here is a experiment of mine with Text: http://studio.sketchpad.cc/DRyPQHuHdd

Feel free to clone it and modify. And if you do... share with the rest of us!!

God Bless!

Games and learning

I know we have a number of educators in this group who are interested in educational value of playing and building games, so I wanted to set up an area for you to share related thoughts and links.

I'll start...

The New York Times just published an great article about the Quest to Learn school. Definitely worth reading: Learning by Playing: Video Games in the Classroom

Processing in Java vs. JS/Canvas

In another class, Creative Programming 2010, we'll be focusing on Processing using the JDK. So, I've taken the liberty of installing JDK and downloaded the Processing.exe.

Browser-based games to play for inspiration

Ari Bader-Natal — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 04:32:26 +0000

I feel like I'm frequently running across cool games built using open-web tools, and I'm guessing that you are, too. Feel free to post links to any games here that you'd like to share with others, whether as a goal, an example, or simply for inspiration.

I'll start by reposting a few games that I included on the course listing:

What brings you here?

Ari Bader-Natal — Tue, 14 Sep 2010 05:24:00 +0000

One of the things that struck me when reading through your responses to the course sign-up questions was the wide variety of (1.) what brings you to this class, and (2.) what you're bringing to this class. Expectations, past programming experience, goals, and your course partners were all very interesting. I really enjoyed reading these, and I think you will, too.
