Tag: black & white exercises

For this assignment (Amusement toy), I modified the solar system code to make it more fun to play with. The player controls the light blue circle, and based on their positioning, the center white circle increases or decreases its radius,…

Blip is the particle game that I’ve been working on. It features a  cloud of generated circles that change color based on mouseX and mouseY positions and slowly move towards the cursor’s direction while the mouse is pressed. A stream…

For my amusement park ride I thought that the best thing to do with matrices was spinning. The push and pop matrix format worked really well for rotations, so I came up with this. The black squares on the outside…

For my second game I included a ‘monster’ and three ‘children’. The monster comes out at night and disappears in the day. At night it chases the children represented by circles and attempts to eat them. There is an element of…

Madeline Dupre This is a fairly simple demonstration of translation and rotation. I simply used those techniques to create a very simple representation of the theme-park “pendulum” style rides. The square, line, and circle all rotate in unison, while the…

I had trouble deciding what I wanted to create after being given this prompt, because there were so many options. I decided to create “Pentagon,” a game in which a player used objects to move other objects. My game starts…

When I first approached the prompt for this exercise, I was stumped as to how I could possibly represent all the different events of the narrative using only simple shapes and little color. After tinkering with the code for quite…

This is my monster game, The player is the monster which is represented with a big red circle. The player starts at the bottom of the screen and his goal is to reach the top while touching the white circles…

The game is called UP TO THE CIRCLES and the goal is to bring the square between those two circles which are doing a circular motion. On the bottom left player is able to see its score and to goal…

Fusion Reaction is a very simple black and white game, which only uses three components. The user starts off with this screen: The user must figure out what to do to cause the titular “reaction.” Both of the squares are…

The Mystery of Frogboy is a basic bastardization of Frogger, minus a few elements. The user is a circle mapped to mouseX and mouseY, and initially begins at the bottom of the screen in landscape mode. Seven squares bounce back…

There is a village: The monster comes out at night: The monster eats moon children: This ‘game’ is really a few-second long cutscene, because despite numerous attempts, I was never completely able to get gameplay working with the cutscene, and…

Monster is a single-player game based on the idea of mixing random possibilities. The basic setting is a village where five people live: a monster who can breath fire in the night to destroy the village; a hunter who can kill…

Chasing88 (or Reverse) is a black and white game based on the idea of clockwise/counterclockwise motion. The interface is consists of four moving circles. All of them are doing clockwise circular motion at different speeds; therefore if left alone, they…

The Son of Thomas was originally based on me naming the first square that I coded, Thomas. However, as the story goes, the square coded as Thomas is actually a monster that shoots out fire that can hit the real…
