Game: Flappy Bird with Hand Motion Control

In this game creation course, students will learn the fundamentals of game development and programming by creating a Flappy Bird game using the Arduino platform and an ultrasonic distance sensor. Throughout the course, students will be introduced to basic programming concepts such as loops, conditionals, and variables, as well as how to integrate hardware components such as an ultrasonic distance sensor with their code. Students will begin by building a basic version of the Flappy Bird game using the Scratch based programming language. They will then learn how to connect an ultrasonic distance sensor to an Arduino board, and use it to control the position of the bird within the game. As students progress through the course, they will refine their game by adding features such as sound effects, different levels, and leaderboards. They will also learn about optimization techniques and best practices for game development. By the end of the course, students will have gained valuable skills in programming, game development, and hardware integration. They will also have a fully functional Flappy Bird game that they can customize and share with others.
