My Pygame

Game Information:

Description

This Pygame project, is a game written in the Python language that was created to fulfill the level 1 task requirements for the Hyperion Development Software Engineering Bootcamp. The aim of this task was to develop skills to adapt to working with novel code libraries. Therefore, a simple Pygame program example was provided as a base to write our own game, according to the task level specifications. This simple game includes one 'player' object, three 'enemy' objects and one 'prize' object.

Functionality

When this program is executed, a screen is displayed according to the size specifications in the code. The player object then appears at the top left-hand corner of the screen and the person playing the game is able to move the player around using the up, down, left and right arrows on their keyboard. The three enemy objects then start moving across the screen from different positions. The person playing the game then needs to manoeuvre the player object to avoid collision with an enemy object, if they collide with an 'enemy', they lose and the game ends. If they are able to avoid the enemies and collide with the 'prize' object on the opposite side of the screen, they win the game and the game ends. If they avoid enemies but do not hit the prize, they also lose the game. When the game ends, the appropriate 'You win!' or 'You lose' message is displayed.
