About Shivam

Ahoy, bright student! I am Shivam (or Shiv, if you prefer that!).

You can find me at vivraan[dot]coolpage[dot]biz.

I have worked as a professional game developer in various domains like XR, PC war gaming, mobile hypercasual time-wasters, and as a hobbyist since 2018. I've been teaching since 2021, starting during the pandemic times!

I co-developed Neosphere Interactive's "1971: Indian Naval Front", which received an Epic MegaGrant and the Game of the Year 2023 award from the India Game Developer Conference.

I have over two years of experience supervising children and teenagers in extracurricular settings. My part-time work in the UK involved teaching computer programming using educational game-making platforms Scratch and MakeCode.

I have also conducted game development workshops with other seasoned industry professionals in India and the UK. I have completed an MSc in Game Programming at Kingston University, London.

I have handled code bases with several thousand lines of code and created tools that make people's lives more tolerable, and I would feel nothing short of joy to see you do something that gives you a similar level of fulfilment!

My goal is to disseminate the art and science of programming: the knowledge, skills, and processes that have become my own through my passionate engagement with programming in general and making games in particular, all for you!

  • English

All languages in which the lesson is available :

English

Currently on top of:
================
LANGUAGES := C++, Python, Zig

ONLINE AND EDUCATIONAL := Scratch, mBlock, Microsoft MakeCode and Minecraft Education Edition (which also uses MakeCode)

ENGINES := Unity, Godot Engine (community docs maintainer)


I need to revise:
=============
LANGUAGES := C#, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java/Kotlin, SQL, Rust, Go

ENGINES := Unreal Engine


I don't yet offer (but plan to):
=======================
LANGUAGES := any functional programming language like haskell,
OCaml, F#, Erlang, etc.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) Agent assisted workflows and loops (learning these myself with a modicum of disgust and morbid curiosity :| )

========================================================
!!!!!== I DO NOT OFFER ROBLOX STUDIO LESSONS TO UNDER 18s ==!!!!!
========================================================

Any other language, framework, toolchain, or ecosystem? Happy to discuss!


What seems to work right now (improving this continuously!):
==================================================

KIDS -> a relevant IDE or scripting environment (Compiler Explorer at godbolt[dot]org is great to start with!), alongside MakeCode or mBlock, then entering in Unity or Godot. Some kids prefer to skip steps!
(concepts: game loops, events, interactions, sequencing, fire-and-forget parallel tasks, basic narrative design, sprite animations, basic game maths, and much, much more!)

GAME ENGINES => Usually Unity or Godot, but the workflow is similar to any engine with a GUI: navigating the UI, exploring different tools, and scripting behaviour. Tasks are highly customised per student!
We go into advanced concepts such as networked multiplayer, advanced physics, performance optimisation, and other integrations as needed.

OTHER => ??? (Drop me a text!)

=====

I prefer a structured approach to lesson planning, so any syllabus, marking rubric, job role description, or other requirement you provide me is factored into our plans! I usually carry out 1-hour sessions, but 4-hour sessions work similarly (except we must all take breaks!).

Expect egregious use of the whiteboard, onscreen drawings, or MS Paint. :P
