Building Games with Scratch 2.0

This video course shows you how to design and build several short games, then code and debug them, and finally publish and share them with the world. This course is a beginners guide to learning the basics of computer science and creating your own engaging and interactive games. You will learn how to make a character respond to input from your computer keyboard, and how to get onscreen objects to interact with each other in increasingly complex ways. Along the way, you will create more visual variety, more interactive possibilities, and have more fun. Following on from this, youll learn how to create a simple catch-and-avoid game, a ball-and-paddle Breakout game, a base-defence game, a point-and-click escape the room adventure game, and a maze game. Youll learn to upload or create the artwork, how to control an onscreen object with a mouse, keyboard, or even by waving your hand in front of a webcam. Well also cover how to create some animation tricks, such as making a falling ball squish when it hits the floor, and making a characters mouth move in synch with your own voice. Along the way, youll learn important computer science principles, such as if-then loops, iterative design, object-oriented programming, and debugging strategies. Whether you are looking for a gentle introduction to computer science, a first step towards learning about the profession of computer programming, or you just want to have fun making games, this video course is here to help you at every step of the way.
