Game Design

what is game design

    • Game design is the art of applying design and aesthetics to create a game for entertainment or for educational, exercise, or experimental purposes. Increasingly, elements and principles of game design are also applied to other interactions, in the form of gamification.
    • Game design creates goals, rules and challenges to define a board game, card game, dice game, casino game, role-playing game, sport, video game, war game or simulation that produces desirable interactions among its participants and, possibly, spectators.
    • Academically, game design is part of game studies, while game theory studies strategic decision making (primarily in non-game situations). Games have historically inspired seminal research in the fields of probability, artificial intelligence, economics, and optimization theory. Applying game design to itself is a current research topic in meta-design.
    • Then computer languages normally used in design gaming:C, C++, Java, C#, Python, Objective-C, Swift, Lua, Java Script,  etc.

Game Design with Scratch for Kids 5-10 Y

  • Scratch is a simple graphical programming platform designed by MIT for children.
  • Scratch is a great way for kids to get started with programming and game design.
  • Children can create their own ideas by dragging and dropping the colorful programming sentence.
  • It helps children to learn creativity and problem-solving skills. They will work collaboratively and master essential skills for the era of AI.

2D Game Design with Blockly Pygame

  • Blockly is a web-based, graphical programming editor. Users can drag blocks together to build an application. It allows you to toggle between the “Blockly” interface and the normal Python code view (as you would see in any other Python editor). It is a good way to move young kids(7+ years old) from programming in Scratch to learning Python.
  • This course is an introduction to 2D Game programming course in python, using blockly-pygame. Blockly-pygame is a visual programming language that allows students to create their own interactive stories, games, and animations. As students design Blockly Pygame projects, they learn to think creatively, reason systematically, and gain solid test-debugging skills.
