Creators
With Kieran and Mark
Time for a change!
Last year the Creator Group focused on Unity 3D - a fantastic 3d Games engine!
Time for a change!
We built some GREAT stuff… BUT as projects got to a certain point, people started to find the coding parts tougher! Some of the laptops were feeling the strain too!
First - a Strong Base!
This year - we want to take our time to get really comfortable with the skills of text-based coding.
- Typing Code
- Object oriented programming
- Organizing bigger Code projects
- Source Code Control
- Tips and tricks
Then! Build cool stuff!
After christmas we can try using our new skills to start building some great games and apps!!What language?
Mostly, we plan to use JavaScript!
Will also try a bit of HTML
JavaScript is one of the BIGGEST languages in Computers today!
It can build ANYTHING!
Many of the games, web pages and mobile apps you use every day are Javascript!
What might we build?
- Webpages!
- Art!
- Physics!
- Animations!
- Simulations!
- Games!
- Goofy Stuff!!
From Simple Stuff..
To Goofy Stuff!!
Come on Mayo!!
What will I need?
Any Computer, Old or New!
Windows, Linux, Mac all fine!
