Anyway, cats? They're lucky to have cats on the screen. When I was a game dev, we just had grey boxes moving around most of the time, pending our overworked and underpaid artist finding time to sort out the real spritesComment

Originally posted by d000hg View PostI think I disagree with admin on this one. Not that it's easy to teach coding, but that this isn't the point.
I was never taught to code, I was interested and learned on my own as a direct result of being exposed to it by my father... who was by no means a professional programmer but an electrics guy who had had to learn when computers entered his industry. He only knew BASIC but could write little programs and that got me interested.
If teachers know enough to get kids playing and interested, that would be plenty. A generation of kids who learn for fun, the same way kids used to when they had to type in games code from a magazine, or when kids used to muck about with electrical circuits, is all we need. They don't need to be taught, just inspired... nearly all our professional athletes were initially taught by fairly average PE teachers and/or parents.Comment
