Two trainees embarking on their coding adventure!

A lack of beginner-level projects brought us to the idea of starting our own little game forge.

Using Python, Pygame and a lot of creativity.

(Hopefully) Starring Geeko, Sleeko and you! :D

Looking for hackers with the skills:

    Song Search with CLAP by gcolangiuli

    Description

    Contrastive Language-Audio Pretraining (CLAP) is an open-source library that enables the training of a neural network on both Audio and Text descriptions, making it possible to search for Audio using a Text input. Several pre-trained models for song search are already available on huggingface

    SUSE Hackweek AI Song Search

    Goals

    Evaluate how CLAP can be used for song searching and determine which types of queries yield the best results by developing a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) in Python. Based on the results of this MVP, future steps could include:

    • Music Tagging;
    • Free text search;
    • Integration with an LLM (for example, with MCP or the OpenAI API) for music suggestions based on your own library.

    The code for this project will be entirely written using AI to better explore and demonstrate AI capabilities.

    Bring to Cockpit + System Roles capabilities from YAST by miguelpc

    Bring to Cockpit + System Roles features from YAST

    Cockpit and System Roles have been added to SLES 16 There are several capabilities in YAST that are not yet present in Cockpit and System Roles We will follow the principle of "automate first, UI later" being System Roles the automation component and Cockpit the UI one.

    Goals

    The idea is to implement service configuration in System Roles and then add an UI to manage these in Cockpit. For some capabilities it will be required to have an specific Cockpit Module as they will interact with a reasource already configured.

    Resources

    A plan on capabilities missing and suggested implementation is available here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZhX-Ip9MKJNeKSYV3bSZG4Qc5giuY7XSV0U61Ecu9lo/edit

    Collection and organisation of information about Bulgarian schools by iivanov

    Description

    To achieve this it will be necessary:

    • Collect/download raw data from various government and non-governmental organizations
    • Clean up raw data and organise it in some kind database.
    • Create tool to make queries easy.
    • Or perhaps dump all data into AI and ask questions in natural language.

    Goals

    By selecting particular school information like this will be provided:

    • School scores on national exams.
    • School scores from the external evaluations exams.
    • School town, municipality and region.
    • Employment rate in a town or municipality.
    • Average health of the population in the region.

    Resources

    Some of these are available only in bulgarian.

    Improvements to osc (especially with regards to the Git workflow) by mcepl

    Description

    There is plenty of hacking on osc, where we could spent some fun time. I would like to see a solution for https://github.com/openSUSE/osc/issues/2006 (which is sufficiently non-serious, that it could be part of HackWeek project).


    Improve chore and screen time doc generator script `wochenplaner` by gniebler

    Description

    I wrote a little Python script to generate PDF docs, which can be used to track daily chore completion and screen time usage for several people, with one page per person/week.

    I named this script wochenplaner and have been using it for a few months now.

    It needs some improvements and adjustments in how the screen time should be tracked and how chores are displayed.

    Goals

    • Fix chore field separation lines
    • Change screen time tracking logic from "global" (week-long) to daily subtraction and weekly addition of remainders (more intuitive than current "weekly time budget method)
    • Add logic to fill in chore fields/lines, ideally with pictures, falling back to text.

    Gods & Steel: Tactical Prototype by pherranz

    Description

    A turn-based tactical combat prototype built in Godot, featuring two techno-sorcery factions in strategic warfare. This proof-of-concept demonstrates core gameplay mechanics including alternating activations, unique faction abilities, and tactical positioning on a grid-based battlefield.

    Goals

    Primary Objectives: Implement a complete turn-based tactical combat loop with alternating unit activation Create two distinct factions with 3-4 units each, showcasing unique mechanical identities Develop a modular code architecture for easy expansion to additional factions Deliver a playable 3v3 battle scenario with basic AI opponents

    Technical Milestones: Grid-based movement and positioning system Alternating activation turn manager Unit ability system with faction-specific mechanics Basic AI decision-making (move → attack patterns) Health/damage system with win/lose conditions

    Stretch Goals: Simple cover system for tactical positioning Additional faction-specific special abilities Enhanced visual feedback for actions

    Resources

    Technology Stack: Engine: Godot 4.2 Art Style: Top-down 64x64 pixel art Programming: GDScript Version Control: Git Tools: Aseprite/LibreSprite for pixel art, TrenchBroom for level blocking

    Development Approach: Day 1: Core architecture (scenes, grid system, unit base class) Day 2: Turn management and basic movement Day 3: Combat system and faction abilities Day 4: AI implementation and balancing Day 5: Polish, bug fixing, and demo preparation

    Technical Architecture: Scene Manager (handles game flow) Grid System (pathfinding, positioning) Unit Manager (turn order, activation) Faction System (modular ability definitions) AI Controller (state-based decision making)

    Asset Pipeline: Placeholder art → Greybox prototyping → Final pixel art Modular unit definition using Godot's resource system Data-driven ability definitions for easy balancing
