Project : Create a Game
|
Hi! This week we have had some lectures about project management and how to put images and text on to the screen. And we have done this because we are to begin our project this week! And we are to create a game, and not any game. We are going to create a clone of an old arcade game! I have chosen Frogger. This is a picture of the normal gameplay when playing Frogger. The idea of the game is to move your frog from the bottom of the screen to one of the positions at the top. The last couple of weeks when we, in class, wrote Arkanoid we wrote the engine for it at the same time. So this is the engine I will use for this project aswell, since I have not the skills to create my own just yet. Therefor I write the engine again, in the same way we did in class, so I can really understand what it is that I am writing and why. This is a task that both gives me more understanding, since I can write my own comments on it and I get more experience with writing code in a good and fast way. Engine: This includes things like the Draw manager, Input manager and Sprite manager. It also includes the class Mouse and Keyboard which gives the user/player the possibility to use the mouse and the keyboard. I will post another post next week, and I should have made some progress by then. So until then; take care! Cya, Alex |
