Games Are Made of Code!
Every game you play — Minecraft, Mario, Roblox, Among Us — was built by programmers writing code. And every game has the same basic parts:
PLAYER: Something you control (a character, a car, a spaceship)
GOAL: Something to achieve (reach the end, collect coins, defeat the boss)
OBSTACLES: Things that make it hard (enemies, walls, time limits)
RULES: How the game works (jump to avoid, collect 3 to win, do not touch red)
Think of a simple game: the player moves right. If they hit a coin, score +1. If they hit a wall, game over. Each of these is a sequence of IF/THEN logic that code handles.
