Game Challenges

Figuring out how to get the jumper enemy to move from platform to platform. Also just dealing with construct in general was annoying.

Game Unfinished Component

I wanted to make the jumper’s jump height/sustain/whatever based on the platform it would move to. With the current values I haven’t tested enough to be sure that it can make any jump. I also didn’t add hitboxes to the enemies which I considered doing.

Game Next Steps

It would be cool to figure out how to generate levels that aren’t just standard left to right.

MMU CS Overview

Mount Mansfield Union High School currently offers two Computer Science courses:

AP Computer Science Principles (CSP)
Computer Science Discoveries (CSD)

Deprecated and replaced by CSD in 2019:

Introduction to Computer Science and Principles (ICS+P)

Most years, the final four to six weeks of each of these courses is spent designing and building a game. Some students work independently while others work with a partner. In the Spring of 2020 and Fall of 2021, students did not have the time to build a game because of the covid pandemic lockdown. Their final projects for class were uploaded instead, and many of these projects are not games but are still very impressive.

Many of the games were created in Scirra's Construct 2 (Windows based) or Construct 3 (web based), although some utilized Scratch or Python or another programming language. Other students choose a project in robotics or with Arduino programming, but they did not create a stand-alone program that could be placed in this accumulation of programs.

There are several excellent games from 2014 that have not been put into the Game Table, so be sure to check them out!
