The features you use influence more than everything else the result. No algorithm alone, to my knowledge, can supplement the information gain given by correct feature engineering.— Luca Massaron What is a feature and why we need engineering of it? Basically, all machine learning algorithms use some input data to create outputs. This input data comprise features, which are usually in the form...
Following up the article “RE-DEV THE FIRST VIDEO GAME PONG WITH SURFACEVIEW AND GAMELOOP”, here is the video tutorial for another version of the Ping game. What is new? Improve the GUIBetter collision handling Challenges The source code for the project is not fully provided but you can always get the code from the video. So want to release your first game on Play/App Store? Watch the...
Pong game (prototype) In this article, we recreate the two-player game Pong – the first arcade video game 1972 – for Android using Kotlin. We will implement the game SurfaceView, game loop design pattern, and code optimization for better performance. Game loop Game loop is a common design pattern in game development. It is already integrated into different game engines. Nevertheless...
This article demonstrates the collision between square, circle, and points using Android Kotlin. We will focus on the programming aspect rather than using complicated mathematical equations. A video tutorial is at the end of the article. Two rectangle collision Using complicated math for rectangle collision is not always necessary. Java and Kotlin offer a convenient way to detect the collision...
Hero VS Monsters This is a (very) simple JAVA implementation of the game “hero vs monsters” as part of the year 1 BSE lab. The implementation is mainly for demonstrating the custom view and touch event. Video tutorial is at the end of the article. The UI it will be a very simple UI with only one view (game view) that extends Android View. In the scene, a hero is trying to kill...
