Scratch 遊戲演算法簡介

In this class we will dive into gaming algorithms using the Scratch coding platform. Learners will learn to develop a variety of algorithms that will greatly enhance game development. 

No previous experience in algorithms are required. This is a beginners class. 

Each session will be 90 minutes. The first 30 minutes will focus on the theory so learners understand how the algorithm works. After a 5-minute break, we'll code the algorithm in Scratch.

Each day we will focus on a new algorithm: 

Day 1: Gravity algorithm
Learners will learn how to create algorithms that allows objects (sprites) to be pulled down by natural gravity. Learners will be able to decide how strong the gravity will be for each object. 

Day 2: Sensors algorithm
Learners will learn how to use "sensors" to create better collision detection. 

Day 3-4: Basic 3D algorithm
These two days we will create a basic 3D spaceship game. Topics include controlling a ship through a 3D space and detecting 3D collisions.

Day 5: Path Algorithm
In this last day we will create an algorithm to allow sprites to follow an invisible path on the screen. The algorithm will control speed and rotation of an object.
