For this week’s work I attempted to make a video game and made a sort of functional game that is mildly entertaining. I could not figure how to adjust the code to make it more fun and exciting, but I did figure out how to change shapes and add colors. I chose to do my work on PuzzleScript because I liked the idea of a simple arcade game. It made me wonder how intense the coding is for games like Red Dead Redemption, Magic The Gathering or even the old classic Oregon Trail if anybody is familiar with that game. My game fails because there’s no way to win it, you just kind of move your arrows around and avoid the robots going through the middle and sides. You die if the robots touch you but that’s just in your head instead of an actual thing in my game. I got confused by the coding on the left and wasn’t sure how to add things in like losing life or adding a level to the game. file:///Users/bellavanpatten/Downloads/Random%20Robots.html Here is a link to the game. You can see the fun colors were chosen by me, as were the square shapes and the robots theme.
I typed in the different colors under “background” “target” and “wall”. I attempted to change the colors here.
Here you can see the actual game on the right. In the second screenshot I tried to fix it so there was a target. I am unsure if that actually changed what the game looked like.
There you have it! That’s my game. I apologize for it not being that interesting of a game, but it does work and I did have fun with it.
