DigiPen Projectfun Camp
Yesterday I went to DigiPen's Projectfun Summer Camp. I had a lot of fun there.
The first thing we did was use PAINT.NET to create art. The instructors told us we would be using the art for a Pong game later. So I just had fun with the interface. There were many features you could use to make the art look cooler. You could add Mandelbrot or Julia fractals, and you could also make them look interesting with things like frosted glass and 'dents'.
The second thing we did was use the Zero Engine to create Pong. It was very easy, in fact, once you got the hang of it. There was no actual coding involved, and the GUI for the Engine was simple to understand. The only part of the project that I didn't do myself was the ZilchScript that they added in to make it work. My favorite part was making the paddles bounce and spin when the ball hit them. It made the game more interesting.
In conclusion, I enjoyed the DigiPen camp!
