Computer Programming With Snap!

Pong

1. The Task was to create a pong game using everything we learned so far in the unit. That would include variables, conditionals, loops, etc. Our pong game had to work like an actual game of pong meaning the ball had to bounce off paddles, the ball had to reset once paddle misses the ball, game would keep track of score, and ball speed had to increase every time it bounced off a paddle. During this project only really encountered one real challenge. That challenge would be resetting the ball when the paddle misses it. I overcame this challenge by first changing my paddles positions. At first my paddles were located at the bottom and top of the screen and traveled from left to right. I couldn't figure out how to reset my ball from those coordinates. Everything I tried didn't work, so I ended up changing the paddles location and made a conditional, so when the ball reaches a certain area then it would reset.

Platform Game

3. The task for this project was to create a platform game in snap! I used custom sprites and was able to code a semi - completed game. The game is about a character named Mega who must kill the enemies who want him dead. You can shoot jump and move to avoid enemies and kill them. Game is not finished but that's my attempt and I think I did a good job

This is the reflection to the platform game explaining my work and what I thought about the project

In this task we used the number keys to make a shape. Each number key was responsible for making its own shape with its own color and thickness. To code this we had to use repeat blocks, move blocks, degrees blocks, and etc.
