ProCodeCG Creating Games Private Class – Day #2 – 23 May 2019

Day #2. We start to think about what games to make 😉

This is how we do brainstorming and designing the game 🙂

We have LOTS of ideas but we will choose one to create today: Matching Game. The game will be about matching pictures or cards. The codes:

The prototype of the game 🙂 We took a lot of time to figure out how to identify same objects without too many complicated stuff 🙂

Great, at least it works now. The main logics have been coded, the hard work is now on creating assets 😀

Creating games, even the simplest ones need hard work, persistency and experience.

There’s no such things as shortcut 🙂 We have to spend time and work 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 23 June 2018

Our class has moved to a new place! ProCodeCG now will open classes at Grapari Loop Station 🙂

It is nice place with chairs and desks and big windows 🙂

We have nice view outside the window, we can open it to get fresh air, or turn on the air conditioner when the weather is too hot 🙂

Today Kinan is ready to start a new strategy to finish her Agario Game 🙂

Kinan had to followed a quite long and complex tutorial but at this stage, she can manage it 🙂

Maryam’s laptop was already installed with GameMaker and she was ready to start her own game

The sprites

Maryam’s first game in GameMaker 🙂

Kinan helped Maryam to finish the game 🙂

Uno was given a task to type Javascript code to be executed in Minecraft 🙂

It is hard at the beginning but every programmer must do it 😉

Fadhlan was very excited about the new place

and very soon Fadhlan will have a big enough box to contain all of these 😀

Something is wrong with Fadhlan’s laptop, it refuses to connect to the internet so we had hard times to update the libraries to test the robot 😦

Aidia, happy and excited, as always 🙂

Aidia is getting more fluent operating Minecraft, and ready to inject some Javascript to create things 🙂

Aidia started from simple structures to be coded in Javascript 🙂

Sulaiman had finished all the challenges and tasks, and now given to create a new Minecraft minigames in Javascript

Sul started to learn to create a guessing number game in Javascript to be run in Minecraft

An awesome minigames in Minecraft 🙂

Yeaaay we had a newcomer, the youngest kid in the class: Gazka 🙂

Gazka still needed to be fully assisted by Nana (grandma) 😀

It took a while until Gazka was confident enough to draw the sprite by himself 🙂

And then Gazka learned some programming logics 😉

with LightBot 🙂

A good start for a very young kid learning programming 🙂 Well done Gazka 🙂

Vian had another project to explore

Minecraft animation 🙂

Vian started to create animation in Minecraft 🙂 Interesting! 🙂

Capt. Faris was busy keeping up with our research

These little guys were discussing about minigames in Minecraft on Sul’s laptop 🙂

Koosha! 😉 *never let himself be caught in camera 😀

Koosha bought some new stuff: nfc tag 😀

This kid surely had plans in head 😀 He just needs the right push and support 😉

But since Fadhlan’s laptop refused to work with wifi and devboards, we asked Koosha to check Fadhlan’s robot 😀

So many things were going on at the new place 🙂 Can’t wait until the next class 😉

Photos and videos are available here 😉

 

 

 

 

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – 17 Feb 2018

Our regular favorite thing 🙂

Silmi forgot to save her work last time

so she had to start from scratch again

and she recovered real soon 🙂

Danen upgraded his game and added more interesting features: the main character now can shoot 🙂

Danen also added a feature so the enemy can chase the main character 😀

Ozan now move on to a new topic: connecting to cloud to control stuff, for this case: a LED 🙂

we connect to hivemq for the MQTT connection

The LED was ready, and the code too

We subscribe to the topic, and start testing receiving and sending message. It worked 🙂

Now Ozan can control a LED from his Android phone 😉

We can also add more widgets to control things, we’re going to control brightness of LED next week 🙂

Firaas made lots of progress because he kept working on the game at home 😉

 

He recreated this RaceCar Game (he lost the one he created last time because he didn’t save it :D)

Firaas helped Danen to make the enemy chasing the main character 😀

This is Firaas’ second game. He added secret passage and also made the main character shoot 🙂

Reading tutorial on how to change shooting directions 🙂

Capt. Faris continued exploring ProCodeCG cloud computing server

we tried to run things up there

Pak Budi came to give Faris a briefing about Machine Learning and the project

Jundy joined in because Faris asked Jundy to run the training process on his laptop 😀

After the briefing this two guys installed Tensorflow on Jundy’s laptop and run a training 🙂

Vian was still doing a project with Ain 🙂

Azriel is in a SmartHome Project in Minecraft 🙂

 

Azriel create a light installation

and automatic door with pressure plate

The switch to turn the lights on/off

We had a newcomer: Fathan

He was given Intro to Programming, and did it very well

Jundy helped Fathan *because they’ve known each other, Fathan goes to the same class as Jundy

After the class ended: playing Minecraft together 😀 #friendship 😀

See you next week with more progress and updates! 😉

ProCodeCG – Darul Hikam – Coding Class – 9 Feb 2018

Friday Fun! 🙂

Captain on duty today 😉 *having lunch before start teaching

Today we continue adding features to the game we created last week 🙂

Hibban didn’t save his first game so he recreated it from the beginning and it was better than the first day 🙂

Hanif kept adding things to the game

He added lots of levels

Adrian started his first game since this is his first day joining in the class 🙂

Adrian’s first game 🙂

Samy (right) had lots of ideas and he drew lots of interesting sprites

Detailed ones like this 🙂 Too bad the game won’t compile because the storage was full, we’re going to try again next class 😉

Capt. Bullit at work 🙂

This game is Capt. Bullit’s, used to be an example for the class 😉

Next class will be more interesting because we’re going to make another game 😉 A racing car game 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Arduino/ESPectro Programming and Open Topics – 20 Jan 2018

Our Saturday coding class 🙂

Cinta started to explore Python libraries for games

Faris helped Cinta to install and test PyGame

The code

Cinta is aiming to create something like this 🙂

Awa was given another project 🙂

to connect Minecraft to Arduino

we tried several ways but nothing worked

Neither this one 😦 We’re going to figure it out next time

Ain was given a task to collaborate with Awa. Ain should create the structures in Minecraft while Awa connect it to the hardware in the real world

Too bad it didn’t work yet so Ain continued his projects in Minecraft by creating more complex structures using Red Stone

Vian was still so interested in Minecraft Command Block

A tool to create command blocks

And we also had Danen 🙂

continuing his next game, Racing Car 🙂

Under the supervision of Capt. Azriel (blue jacket)

The game is almost done 🙂 Danen will finish it next week 🙂

Nafis was really busy doing a project for school: running text on a LCD

Capt. Azriel made sure he type every single line, because you had to type to code 😀

Al’s TLauncher needed to be updated so it took a while before he can start. Al learned more about looping and how to add different blocks in different colors in Minecraft with JavaScript

Ozan was still debugging his work, using Nafis’ code just to find out if it work

Capt. Faris continued our TensorFlow research

While also helping other kids

and exchanging ideas with Jundy 🙂

So much ideas and collaboration today 🙂 Can’t wait until next week 🙂

We picked up were we left yesterday. Some of the kids working on the Race Car Game

Some started to make BreakOut Gam

Some adding more features to their Maze Game

This is how the kids interact with each other in the class

They work together, play together

Discuss things and exchange ideas

And by having a kids tutor, the kids are more open to accept advices 🙂 This is Capt. Ain explaining things 🙂

 

Then the kids started to create Flappy Bird Game

or invent their own game 😀

The best thing is when kids try to play other kids game 🙂

Another version of Flappy Bird Game 😀

Kids learn more by playing 🙂

 

Lunch break

“I am eating vegetables!” said Ghassan proudly *Bagas and Arkan sitting next to him tossed him their vegetables and Ghassad had to eat them all LOL

Lots of creative invention and progress today

But kids instinct to play with real objects can never be replaced, so let him! 🙂

Yaaay the kids now are able to create their own games 🙂 This is them with the certificates 🙂

See you again soon 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Coding Camp – Creating Games – Day #2 – 19 Dec 2017

Day #2! 🙂

We added more features to the game 🙂

Kids were so excited creating their own version

Let’s make a list of the kids attending class today:

Arkan

Ghassan

Bagas (apparently didn’t want to be in pic :D)

Vian

Rayhan

Gana

Arka

Gabriel

Edward

Nana

Dehya

Kids learned to add scores and levels today 🙂

Look at those happy faces 🙂

And then we started to create another game with different techniques: Race Car 🙂

Lunch break

The results at the end of the class today

We did learn some lines of codes too 😉

Plus having time playing: putting one of them inside a box 😀

But the progress today is amazing 🙂

We’re going to create more games tomorrow and we will report the result! 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Open Topics – 16 Dec 2017

Our open topics class 🙂 Let’s see how many topics do we have today 😉

Capt. Faris, ready to continue our research about TensorFlow etc. 🙂

We’re researching how to recognize certain object in real time with a camera 🙂

Yep it works 😉

It certainly recognizes persons

and cellphone

Nice! Now we are going to add more objects and train it to be able to recognize the new objects 🙂

Ain was busy working on his assignments (while also preparing for kids coding camp because he’s going to be captain on duty ;))

Ain had successfully created a simulation of wheels going up and down slopes 🙂

And a simulation of some round objects falling into some surface

We’re trying to simulate molecule behavior 🙂

Captains bonding before the class 😀

Capt. Cinta was so busy catching up with Python programming

She go through all the examples in the handout and ready to be given a new project  🙂

Emma is back 🙂 She is the only one in the class learning C/C++ for AI programming 🙂 She was also given a task to explore Python AI Library as a comparison and just in case we need her to help us with the TensorFlow project 🙂

While J still stuck in finding ways to create a running text in Minecraft

So he created something else instead 🙂

J was still figuring out how to solve the problem with piston limit 🙂

While Azriel started to learn RedStone

Azriel created automatic door with pressure plate and with lever 🙂 There’s so much things to explore with this new skill 🙂

And now we have two web programmers: Nadine

and Nanin 🙂

They both started to learn HTML and create  their own website design 🙂

They look so happy 🙂

These girls type their own code and make some changes to the color, background, size and fonts 🙂

And they help each other, of course 🙂

Vian 🙂 Got some help from Ain to make what’s in his head reality 🙂

Vian always has interesting ideas, and Ain always knows how to implement it 🙂

so they make a great team 🙂

The result 🙂

Tyo did lots of research about how to connect Java to Microsoft Excel 🙂

Tyo was still working on the project to generate invoice from from Java 🙂 Awesome work and endurance Tyo 🙂

Another activities in the class:

Capt. Fizhan trying to fix Nanin’s won’t-connect-to-internet laptop 🙂

And these two little bros of Ain were playing with Ain’s work 😀

Lots of topics and progress as always! 🙂 Can’t wait until the next class 😉

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Open Topics – 11 Nov 2017

Open topic class 🙂

Hello, welcome back, Aidia 🙂

 

Aidia learned to create games with GameMaker, under close supervision of Capt. Azriel, and help from Ain too 🙂

Aidia sit for hours to create her own game 🙂

She kept adding more things to the game 🙂

Adding levels and score

And more sprites 🙂

Aidia wasn’t only happy creating it, she likes to play it herself too 🙂

Ain was going to learn Minecraft Modding but there was a problem with his local server so he created another game 🙂

And play the game together with his little brother 🙂

A heart-melting scene 😀

Brillyan started to create his own game today, with Capt. Azriel on duty 🙂

Brillyan likes to do things in detail

He created the sprite pixel by pixel 🙂

Brillyan also learned how to create objects, background and room. And was given a homework to improve it 🙂

Azriel (grey jacket) continued his lessons on Javascript coding for Minecraft Modding 🙂

He’s getting better and better each time 🙂 Today he learned to create an igloo

and was given a task to make it transparent 😀

and he did 🙂

And then Azriel learned to create a pyramid

a rainbow pyramid 🙂 and many more like tunnel and bookstore 🙂 We’re going to develop more things next week 🙂

J was so busy doing his project

To create a super secure building 😀

It took lots of effort

And lots of command blocks *J insisted he didn’t want to do it in Javascript

It’s a big structure

So it seriously takes some time to finish 😀

Keep up the hard work J 😉

Bonus: cuteness overloaded 😀

Tiga, Ain’s little brother was there too 🙂

To give Ain’s game

and to demonstrate how to play violin 🙂

Such a heartthrob! ❤ ❤ ❤

See you again next week, all 🙂

ProCodeCG Kids Regular Coding Class – Open Topics – 4 Nov 2017

Ready for awesome updates from our open topics class today? 🙂

Ioan continued improving his game and add more features with more techniques 🙂

Ioan added random bouncing sprites to the game and added lives to the main character

Capt. Faris helped him along the way 🙂

Jesse (left) and Jackson (right) were ready to install the latest version of Java, Spigot Server and Minecraft to start Minecraft Modding lesson 🙂

It took some time to download and install, but they finally got the latest version of Spigot Server running and connect the latest version of Minecraft to the server. Jackson and Jesse then learned JavaScript basic commands to be executed inside Minecraft 🙂

Adin’s last GameMaker files were in the other computer so he started a new one on this laptop 🙂

Adin recreated his Race Car Game and lost it because he accidentally close it without saving it first :(((

So Adin started all over again

And created a new game: BreakOut

And finished it in no time 🙂

Next: Flappy Bird 😉

Vian helped Adin with some ideas 🙂

Adin was given task to make the background infinite

And he did 🙂 Next week he should be able to create random upper and lower pipes 🙂

Jundy, came up with lots of amazing RedStone works in Minecraft

Jundy is very good at RedStone components and structures

He created this amazing structures

That can automatically build a bridge over a lava river

The structure is quite complex

It needs some tricks

It uses transmitters

Pretty difficult structures

Jundy added a tunnel above it

The on and off switch to furl and unfurl the bridge 🙂 Next week Jundy will be given task to create Adder with RedStone components

Vian created a whole new game with difficult ideas in head 🙂

Vian started to learn GML scripts 🙂 A major progress!!! 🙂

Adit had just finished his Intro to Programming lessons and started to learn GameMaker 🙂

Creating sprites

Creating movements, objects, room and scores 🙂

Adit had created his very first game in GameMaker 🙂

Azriel keeps making progress with Minecraft Modding

He was given a task to create a skycrapers with different colors on each level 🙂

He had to combine skyscraper code with rainbow code, and Capt. Faris came for help

Yassss, he did it 🙂

Introducing, ProCodeCG Building 😉 *a big pixel art sign will be on the building 🙂

The code of this rainbow skyscraper 🙂

Then to make sure Azriel got the idea, he had given a task to stack up blocks with different colors, and this is the result 🙂 Good work!!! 🙂

Captain on Duty: Capt. Faris

Capt. Faris and Jundy always have something to discuss about 🙂

Next week will be more fun because we keep doing more research 🙂
