Make a Pacman Game
[PACMAN]
Full Course
Class Package
Class Description:
In this 6-lesson course, students make a classic Pacman-style arcade game. We spend substantial time on the design, visuals, logic and testing of the game. This class gives beginners the essentials of code concepts needed for the project and assumes no prior programming experience, but proceeds at a brisk pace also suitable for students with some prior experience. Code and design concepts covered include 2-dimensional arrays, timers, 2-dimensional graphics effects, and artificial intelligence in games.
Prerequisites:
Age 11+ or instructor approval. Some experience with typed-out programming helpful, but not required.
