We recently challenged our A-Level Computer Science students to design and
create their own video games using their new Python programming skills. They
certainly did not disappoint!

Most students drew inspiration from retro-themed games, including Jakub’s colourful
Sky Shooter and Adam’s take on the classic Flappy Bird. Richie’s game was a role-
playing game, featuring large colourful graphics and endless combinations of play.
We were really impressed by everyone’s fantastic efforts

However, it was Imaan’s horizontally-scrolling platform commando game which stood
out as the winner. Colour and cute retro graphics combined with complex behind-the-scenes game mechanics delivered fun gameplay throughout. Well done, Imaan!

We will be keeping a keen eye on our aspiring coders and look forward to seeing what
they create next!
