Abstract

The purpose of this project was to develop a computer game called "Who Wants to Be a Programmer?" The game is designed to teach players about programming concepts in a fun and engaging way. The game features a variety of questions on topics such as variables, data types, loops, conditional statements, and functions. The game also includes a variety of mini-games that allow players to practice programming concepts in a hands-on way. The game was developed using the Unity game engine. The game features a user-friendly interface and a variety of audio and visual effects. The game is also designed to be scalable, so that new questions and mini-games can be added easily. The game was tested by a group of students at Federal Polytechnic Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria. The students gave the game positive feedback, indicating that it was fun and engaging. The students also indicated that the game helped them to learn about programming concepts in a more effective way than traditional teaching methods. Overall, the development of the computer game "Who Wants to Be a Programmer?" was a success. The game is a fun and engaging way to teach players about programming concepts. The game is also scalable and can be used to teach a variety of programming topics.
