"all i want for Christmas is my sprig" - @SwaritChoudhari-U04B3B5GATT

progress! i think it made it a bit too hard 😅 editor.sprig.hackclub.com/?id=8cc163a3c4fbcd424886a84f14b1d963

I translated Sprig :sprig-dino: docs into Spanish! This helped me as well to understand better how the engine works. :pr: :gamelab:

paste.rs/mdc.js there's something really satisfying about this Sprig demo (ye dass what we're callin it now. Sprig Engine or something idk)

Update on the console development! We've made a new tile based game engine for making games! It'll help people focus more on game design and less on the engine mechanics. Here is a sample game: gamelab-o8wzoy1us.hackclub.dev/?id=0fab97880fee1f97734191f92c15b7cf We would LOVE people's help making more example games. Props to @ced for making this fun fire game. Also to @kognise for the reskin. I'm digging the PCB theme!

So my coding journey about shaders :macintosh-stcicker: helped me to learn more about how 3D Pixel Art 🎨 works! Here's an example of a 3D Render scene with a shader effect that I saw on tutorial, which can be made with Blender :blender: , Unity 3D Game Engine :unity: or with code using Three.js! :javascript: Here's also an image of "A Short Hike" a very cool :cooll-dino: indie game that uses this same effect that I will be playing soon! And speaking about games, today I did another basic design while using Gamelab! :gamelab: I think I'm understanding it better! :quad_parrot: Lastly for today, I had my Biology 🦠 exam today and I'm going to be working on Hack Club's :hack-club: guide-to-web-dev repository :merge: I plan to make more commits soon and explain everyone here what is it for! 👀

progress with a map editor for gamelab… can now parse sprites from the code. still have to, like, actually write the editor bit, but this is good progress! (although while writing this i realized that ced is actually right and there’s a better way with hopefully fewer edge cases.) *wow, look at this, two scrapbook posts in one day. should’ve done the electrical engineering one like two days earlier but i kept forgetting.

This weekend I figured out how to make a CodeMirror 6 extension, and then made an in-editor sprite creator for the new Game Lab version we're working on! Sprites are contained in the code as special strings, so the sprite editor is populating from and then updating the code editor's content.

We've made some updates to the Gamelab Beaker Repo! We're now tracking project progress with GitHub projects and issues. If you want to stay most up to date you should follow along there. This week we got some tile-based puzzle games to run with our new game engine on the Pico. Check out the demo below!

some covid goin' round HQ, so work on the Game Lab handheld console continues from home :salute: wired up those buttons yesterday :) I'm still not clearing the screen though :tw_sweat_smile: so it's also a drawing program for making abstract art! :mask-parrot:stay well hack clubbers, and join #nemea to help us get this console in the hands of any hack clubber who builds something cool with gamelab :)

@HenryBass-U02KEJ8T6D8 hung out with us at hq yesterday and helped us test a new way of making games in gamelab wouldn't it be epic to run this game on a hand-sized device you could only get by making a cool game of your own? that's being developed in #nemea if you'd like to follow along :)

In order to make the gamelab beaker games more fun we decided to tune the gamelab engine to tile games which will fit the console better. We're trying to figure out the API now. I would LOVE help testing out the new engine: github.com/hackclub/gamelab/tree/puzzle-engine I made some little example games here: gamelab-git-puzzle-engine.hackclub.dev I'm drawing lots of inspiration from puzzlescript. If you want to help out try to remake the puzzle script games in js. You can try using our engine or make your own. The objective is to find the right abstractions to use in our engine.

ST7735 LCDs come with little colorful tabs on the sides of them. there are several different colors: red, green, blue, etc. the versions we got to use with the gamelab beaker are green. the javascript driver for this code only has the initialization sequence for the red version. the code split on the left is the source code for it. on the right, I have the source code for the python initialization code for the green version. right now, my colors are inexplicably scrambled, and the best guess I have is that I used the wrong initialization sequence.

imagine if you tried to run a gamelab game on a 2 core CPU -- a Raspberry Pi Pico -- using a software rasterizer written entirely in Python. the fps might be 5. yeah, the fps is 5. join #nemea to help us as we scramble to speed this up and get it in the hands of hack clubbers everywhere 😉

Today there's both artistic 🎨 and coding 💻 things! First, I've been saying many times that I'll share my pantings in here, so as a first post about that, I'll share some old artworks I did many years ago, starting with a boat painting with watercolors. 🖼️ 🖌️ ! I'll share the rest when I find them :) Also I'm working on a small pixel tree 🌴 and there's going to be a full post for the biggest thing of the day 👀 . And about coding, today I help :quad_parrot: fixing a typo :merge: on a repo! :github: It was pull request #1 🥇 :blobattention: on Gamelab's console project! :gamelab: 🕹️ . Lastly for now, I am changing the song of my Scrapbook to another of Imagine Dragons as well. 🎵 🎧

gamelab.hackclub.com/?id=40670d72740b05fa5c6f1645d0475af0~ anyone who can figure out how to beat the third level receives my eternal gratitude and admiration EDIT: I'm still trying to figure out how to make levels for this game, but this version is a little bit more polished. the difficulty ramp is still insane. gamelab.hackclub.com/?id=7e2a770ae58f43d3272cdc414610a5b6

there's something poetic about how up close it looks like noise, but when they back up there's a very clear pattern also in how the patterns repeat themselves, but mirrored or with a different number of limbs gamelab.hackclub.com/?id=199492436796fdf3f42f51da44c0948f

Following @jessicard documentation, I contributed to Hack Club by creating a pull request on GitHub to fix an issue in GameLab

excuse the double ship/scrapbook post, but I need to record this on my scrapbook 🙂 I made my first game lab game yesterday! I was having too much fun making sprites of my golden retriever, and ended up making Samantha Training Simulator. There’s a bunch more I want to add, but how it works is you have to perform a series of commands, and every one you get right is a point! gamelab.hackclub.com/?id=d6945ae1a9a64ba1dab3e3915904ffcc

Today I did a few small changes to my GitHub Readme! Also I'm going to be trying some cool Gamelab games as well as continuing making my own! :gamelab:

finally started tinkering w/ gamelab!

I implemented scoring and added custom sprites for the “game over” text. Can you beat the game 👀? gamelab.hackclub.com/?id=b354fa61c8f113614abdcb7fe8ff69c0

added obstacles with randomized positions gamelab.hackclub.com/?id=e526b60c3717e25808de3c969cd79fc9

maybe this will show up on scrapbook correctly this time? gamelab.hackclub.com/?id=99dc9855ff952f4bc7ffc9c7737d356b
