Objective:

  • You will create a game that allows a player to travel around the screen
  • The player will be able to collect items
  • The player must also avoid certain "mines" or "traps"

Description:

  • You will have a single player that can move around the screen
  • You will have a variable that tracks the number of items collected (initialize it to 0)
  • You will have at least 5 items on the screen
    • All items should be randomly place when the game starts
    • If an item is collected (touching/collision with item), then...
      • make the item disappear
      • increase your item count by 1
    • If you have collected all the items, then tell the user "You win!"
  • You will have at least 10 "mines" on the screen
    • 5 "mines" should be stationary and do not move
    • 5 "mines" should move around the screen
    • Randomly place the stationary mines when the game starts
    • If a mine is hit, then tell the user "Game Over" and end the game

Additional Bonus Features:

  • Screenwrapping
  • Wall collisions
  • Multi-directional sprite images
  • Explosion image when player sprite collides with a mine
  • Countdown timer
  • Change item count label to a point collection label
  • Different items (worth different values)
  • Increasing difficulty levels (more mines)

Grading Rubric:

  • 2 pts - player can travel around the screen
  • 2 pts - item count label
  • 2 pts - random placement of items and mines
  • 2 pts - collision with item makes it disappear and increases count by 1
  • 2 pts - collision with mine results in a "Game Over" message
