|---|---|
| Godot | Godot website has been intermittently blocked on school networks - you can access the file here. Godot is a game engine similar to Unity that is currently exploding in popularity. It can be downloaded without admin permission on school devices and runs much better that Unity, including on low end devices. It's better for 2d development than Unity, but generally considered a bit worse for 3d (though it is still completely capable and improving quickly). |
| Python 3.13.0 | Most students are familiar with this beginner friendly coding language. Python is one of the most commonly used programming languages in the world. I've included the link to their downloads page here because Windows computers like to forcefully take you to the Windows store download page, which blocks you from downloading it on school networks. You'll have no issues using this link. |
| NEAT Lander config file | This file is for our 11/1/24 STEM All Spark Flex Friday session. Our goal is to train a Lunar Lander to land on the moon with Neural Networks. Our program will use this file to configure the parameters of the neural network, saving us a lot of time. |
