A modified Pong game later in the semester applying object-oriented programming to add multiple balls
To try out this example: Move the mouse inside
To try out this example: Move the mouse inside
Example Lab/Assginment
A plarform game: use of control structures (if/else), keyboard events and event handling.
Problem-solving: How to make the platform scrolling continuously without making the platform infinitely long.
To try out this example: Click once inside, use LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys to move the character, and use SPACEBAR for jumping
Example Lab
tic-tac-toe: use of 2d array to model the game board, use of if-else statements to toggle players' turns
To try out this example: Click on the cell to place an "X" or "O".
Example Lab/Programming Assignment
3d drive-through fly-through: keyboard event handling, use of loops, multi-dimensional arrays, and 3d perspective concepts
To try out this example: Click once inside, hold down UP/DOWN arrow keys to move forward/backward, hold down LEFT/RIGHT arrow keys to pan left/right, hold down SPACEBAR to fly up (see if you can spot the pterodactyl)
Example Lab
Draggable mask: use of mask and mouse event handling
