FlappyCat

TechVisual·First ever project ❤️Hand-crafted pixel art

The Brief

My very first coding project — a Flappy Bird-inspired 2D game built with Pygame, featuring hand-crafted pixel art assets. Where it all started.

Problem

Every developer starts somewhere. This was the project that sparked my passion for building things with code.

Significance

Beyond the code, FlappyCat represents the moment I fell in love with programming — turning an idea into something interactive and playable for the first time.

My Contribution

Designed and built a complete 2D game with Pygame, including collision detection, scoring, and game-over logic. Created all visual assets from scratch using Photoshop and Pixel Art Studio. Wrote a comprehensive 3,000-word report and presented to academic peers.
