Thanks for checking out my course on learning how to program by making games.
My name is Sarah and Soko and I've been programming for 15 years now as the lead developer and a company
of over 150 people for four years.
I've been a programming tutor for many years as well and also a programming mentor at Vancouver Film
School.
I mean this course because I always see a common problem among the students at teach.
When I asked them to solve a problem they've never seen before.
Give me a blank stare not knowing how to start.
I mean this course to address this problem.
His courses focus is problem solving first and foremost.
I want to show you how I go about solving problems and give you my whole methodology so you can solve
almost any problem you come across.
This course will be using C++ is powerful and versatile language that is used basically everywhere from
games engines to operating systems robots and even airplanes to gain more exposure.
We need to have hands on experience making increasingly complex projects.
All our projects will be games starting with a simple number guessing game moving on to hangman then
battleship.
And finally a Space Invaders clone I want to show you the kind of program you'll be able to make by
the end of this course.
So here is the final project that we work on call Texana invaders and it's a Space Invaders clone.
So for a start and you could see that we have our little guy can move it.
Shoot you can see that UFO over the top there and all the aliens animate and they hit they can explode
and you can have the shields that can be damaged just like the real space invaders.
So this is very much a foundation course so if you want to know how things really work on a computer
at a low level in how to approach any programming problem then this course you have to see you in this
course in happy programming.
