Thanks for checking out my course on learning how to program by making games.

00:06.770 --> 00:13.190
My name is Sarah and Soko and I've been programming for 15 years now as the lead developer and a company

00:13.190 --> 00:16.510
of over 150 people for four years.

00:16.820 --> 00:23.840
I've been a programming tutor for many years as well and also a programming mentor at Vancouver Film

00:23.840 --> 00:24.870
School.

00:24.890 --> 00:29.660
I mean this course because I always see a common problem among the students at teach.

00:29.690 --> 00:32.230
When I asked them to solve a problem they've never seen before.

00:32.420 --> 00:35.360
Give me a blank stare not knowing how to start.

00:35.420 --> 00:38.360
I mean this course to address this problem.

00:38.370 --> 00:42.200
His courses focus is problem solving first and foremost.

00:42.410 --> 00:48.050
I want to show you how I go about solving problems and give you my whole methodology so you can solve

00:48.050 --> 00:50.510
almost any problem you come across.

00:50.640 --> 00:56.680
This course will be using C++ is powerful and versatile language that is used basically everywhere from

00:56.690 --> 01:02.930
games engines to operating systems robots and even airplanes to gain more exposure.

01:02.930 --> 01:07.790
We need to have hands on experience making increasingly complex projects.

01:07.910 --> 01:14.270
All our projects will be games starting with a simple number guessing game moving on to hangman then

01:14.270 --> 01:15.130
battleship.

01:15.380 --> 01:21.560
And finally a Space Invaders clone I want to show you the kind of program you'll be able to make by

01:21.560 --> 01:23.330
the end of this course.

01:24.710 --> 01:32.340
So here is the final project that we work on call Texana invaders and it's a Space Invaders clone.

01:32.700 --> 01:38.910
So for a start and you could see that we have our little guy can move it.

01:38.990 --> 01:48.590
Shoot you can see that UFO over the top there and all the aliens animate and they hit they can explode

01:49.310 --> 01:55.660
and you can have the shields that can be damaged just like the real space invaders.

01:55.670 --> 02:01.910
So this is very much a foundation course so if you want to know how things really work on a computer

02:01.910 --> 02:08.420
at a low level in how to approach any programming problem then this course you have to see you in this

02:08.420 --> 02:10.040
course in happy programming.
