GCDI 2021-2022 Workshops

Collection of workshops offered by The GC Digital Fellows for the year of 2021-2022.

<p>Level up your Python programming skills by creating a simple computer game! In this workshop you will be introduced to Pygame, a free and open-source library for creating computer games in Python. Specifically, you will create a simple “Frogger” style game that will introduce you to the following concepts: drawing text and graphics to the screen, capturing keyboard input and representing movement, creating basic collision detection, increasing difficulty, and implementing game loops with win/lose conditions. Because we will not have time to cover all of the fundamentals, it is necessary to have at least some previous Python programming experience (our Intro to Python workshop should give you the skills necessary). We will work in IDLE (or your IDE of choice) and the game assets (e.g., graphics) will be provided for you.</p>
