SUMMARY:7 PM – Python Game Development – Sebastian
DESCRIPTION:Today We Did\n\nEncapsulated blitting play button\, logo\, and credit button to their own methods\nCreated logic to check mouse position when clicking on play button\nYou can always find the code we wrote in class in my Gitlab repository here:\nhttps://gitlab.com/gsugiart/MON-7PM-FlappyBird/-/tree/Sebastian?ref_type=heads\nIn case you need anything\, feel free to email me at sebastian@ayclogic.com\n\nHomework\n\nHomework: Allow the user to switch between game modes by clicking on the play button and crashing on tubes.\n\nInside our draw_play_button method\, add the one remaining line of code that will start the game\nThink about which method is called when the player collides with a tube\, inside this method we need to change the game mode so the user returns to the title screen. Try your best to think about which method this is\, and what (singular) line of code we need to write to change the game mode correctly.

SUMMARY:5 PM - Python Game Dev - Bill
DESCRIPTION:Gamas Sub \nToday We Did\n\nWe reviewed some of the missing components on Nicholas and Leon games.\nWe continued with the Shoot Balloon game\n\nWe added the ability to pop all the good balloons when the bug is killed.\n\n\n\nHomework\n\nLeon: add the following missing features in your spaceship game.\n\nTitle image in the landing page. Or it could be a big font with your game title.\nCreate a credit page and add the button in landing page.\nAdd count down timer.\nWhen count down timer goes to 0\, display WIN page.\nCreate Win page obviously and in the win page there should be play and credit button.\nChange the Font colors of the scores\, lives.\nIn the Game lost page\, display the play button and credit button.. When play button is clicked\, reset the scores and timer and start the game again.\nUse sound effects in your game (https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/186SS8dBfo7Z1kM-phpCGYbm8DL57vlXT) :\n\nAdd sound effect when the player is launching projectile.\nAdd sound effect when the enemy is destroyed.\n\n\n\n\nNicholas: add the following missing features in your sea swamp game.\n\nThe credit page\, the game advisor is supposed to be Bill Han.\nUse sound effects in your game (https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/186SS8dBfo7Z1kM-phpCGYbm8DL57vlXT) : when you pop the fish\nIn the win page\, centered the buttons.\nIn the win page\, show the score.\nAdd background sound. Go to https://opengameart.org to find a free and legal to use background song.\n\n\nShoot Balloon homeworks\n\nWhen the bug is killed play the assets/collect5.wav\nAdd the play button on the landing page.\nWhen the bug is off the screen\, kill it.\nWhen the bug appear\, play the assets/bug/birdchipr2.wav. And when the bug is killed\, you need to stop the sound effect.

SUMMARY:6 PM – Python Game Development – Sebastian
DESCRIPTION:Today We Did\n\nReviewed how Gitlab works & fixed problems with pushing / pulling / committing\nCreated multiple birds each time the create_bird_timer finishes\nPlace each new bird in a random y coordinate\nYou can always find the code we wrote in class in my Gitlab repository here:\nhttps://gitlab.com/gsugiart/tue-6-pm-dragon-birdie/-/tree/TUE-6PM-Sebastian\n\nIn case you need anything\, feel free to email me at sebastian@ayclogic.com\n\nHomework\n\nHomework: Recall everything we’ve done for our Bird class & objects so far. Try doing the same thing for a new Cloud class\, with the main difference being the cloud speed is 6\, the cloud image can be either “cloud1.png”\, “cloud2.png”\, or “cloud3.png”\, and the create_cloud_timer is 80.\n\nStart with creating your new Cloud class & ensure all the code is accurate in there\nThen we can make the cloud_group and create_cloud_timer (set to 80) in the constructor in the file main.py\nNext we can fill out the create_cloud method underneath our create_bird method\, make sure it reflects the different timer!\nFinally we can call create_cloud() and update our cloud group in the game_loop.\nRemember\, your clouds won’t be drawn unless you update them in the game loop! (I have a feeling this might be easily forgotten).

SUMMARY:7 PM - Python Game Dev - Latisha
DESCRIPTION:Today We Did\nWe went over each individual projects \n\nFor Ezra and Jayden project\, recommended to do a top view game instead of side view because all of their game assets are top view game assets.\nFor Tyler\, he will be working on his project solo without Shanice. And he will be doing something similar to https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/240119251 . Since he is only one person\, he just need to choose either to do bug or ghost. If he chose bugs\, he can use the cat sprite which he already has.\nFor Justin and Nicholas\, I helped them with commit and push game assets to gitlab.com. Also showed them how to do cropping of their game assets in Firealpaca.\nWe did a little bit of Flappy Bird adding the sound effect when the bird hit the tube.\n\nHomework\n\nContinue with your project. Your project is due on Nov 9\, 2023.\nIf you are stuck with your project please ask your parent to schedule extra class with Gamas Chang.

SUMMARY:6 PM – Python Game Development – Sebastian
DESCRIPTION:Today We Did\n\nLearned how to submit our homework (commit and push)\nLearned how to see previous class code (on Gitlab)\nReviewed general architecture of most games: blit images inside an infinite loop\nCreated basic Bird class & blitted to screen\nYou can always find the code we wrote in class in my Gitlab repository here:\nhttps://gitlab.com/gsugiart/tue-6-pm-dragon-birdie/-/tree/TUE-6PM-Sebastian?ref_type=heads\n\nIn case you need anything\, feel free to email me at sebastian@ayclogic.com\n\nHomework\n\nHomework: Please view my Github repository here to ensure you have all code up to date (I added a new line in bird.py after class to scale our bird to a smaller size).\n\nAfter you have the same code as I pushed to my branch\, you should be able to see our background image along with a small bird on the top left corner of the screen.\nRecall that the update method inside our Bird class is constantly called inside our game loop in main.py. Any updates to the bird image on the screen will be made in this method.\nYour assignment is to try and make the bird move across the screen at the speed indicated by the “self.speed” attribute. Since this is “updating” the bird image on the screen\, you will have to do it in the update method inside of bird.py.\nHint: If you have the same code as I pushed to my branch\, you only need to add one line of code inside of the update method.

SUMMARY:7 PM – Python Game Development – Sebastian
DESCRIPTION:Today We Did\n\nFixed player direction code\nAdded cloud types\nDestroy clouds & birds when they go off our screen\, so we don’t have millions of unseen images\, slowing down our game\nBegan setting up variables for different game modes\nYou can always find the code we wrote in class in my Gitlab repository here:\nhttps://gitlab.com/gsugiart/mon-7-pm-dragon-birdie/-/tree/MON-7PM-Sebastian\nIn case you need anything\, feel free to email me at sebastian@ayclogic.com\n\nHomework\n\nHomework: View my code in the repository linked above to get a better idea of what I’m talking about.\n\nIn your constructor\, create a new attribute called game_mode which will be set to one of the two game modes we created in class (GAME_LANDING_PAGE\, and GAME_IN_SESSION). It’s your job to choose which global variable it should be set to in the beginning of the game (where should the game start at?).

Your homework will ensure we get a head start on this.\n\nLets make some new global variables. It’s your job to try and figure out which file we should add these in.\n\nSet new global variable “GAME_LANDING_PAGE” to 1\nSet new global variable “GAME_IN_SESSION” to 2\n\n\nNext\, in main.py create the following methods which we will use for the landing page. We’ll go over what to put inside these methods in class\, so for now just write “pass” as the method’s content:\n\ngame_landing_page()\ndraw_play_button_and_title()\n\n\nFinally\, let’s add a new attribute in main.py called “self.mode” and set it to the global variable we made earlier called “GAME_LANDING_PAGE”. It’s your job to think of which method we should create this new attribute.

SUMMARY:7 PM – Python Game Development – Sebastian
DESCRIPTION:Today We Did\n\nCreated bird class with constructor and update method\nCreated sprite group to add instance of bird\nAdded create_bird() method which creates new bird objects according to our timer\nCode from main.py: \nCode from bird.py: \nIn case you need anything\, feel free to email me at sebastian@ayclogic.com\n\nHomework\n\nBe sure to create a good commit message and push your homework by next Sunday\nHomework:\n\nMake a class named Cloud in a file called cloud.py similar to the one we made for Bird. Use the cloud1.png image. You don’t need to scale this picture. Make it move to the right.\nIn main.py\, make a new group called self.cloud_group. Make an instance of the new cloud and add it to the group (where should this instance be put? Inside the constructor or the game loop?). Then call update for the cloud group in the game loop.
