Tron Light Cycles game

Objective:

Directions:

With a partner, create a design document that describes all the rules and components of the game (just like Mr. Bui does it)
In the description of each rule and component, explain what should happen on the screen
Be sure to completely describe as much as you can. Be sure to include:
- Background
- Sound
- Players
- What happens during game play (drawing/pen stuff)
- How does somebody lose?
Print out and turn in your design (be sure to put both your names on it)
Begin working on the game individually; however, you may collaborate with others if you get stuck

Grading Rubric (10 pts total):

Aesthetics & Sounds (out of 3 pts)

3 pts - Non-default background and sprites. Background music and sound effects when collisions occur.
2 pts - Non-default background and sprites.
1 pt - All you did was change the cat.

Movement & Game-play (out of 3 pts)

3 pts - movement and game-play are nearly identical to the original game. Sprites move automatically and players do not lose when they go the opposite direction of their movement
2 pts - movement and game-play are mostly functional, but do not match the original game.
1 pt - movement and game-play barely work

Winning & Scoring (out of 3 pts)

3 pts - Collisions make players lose. Score is kept so that each player knows how many times each of them have won.
2 pts - Collisions make players lose. No scoring.
1 pt - Collisions make players lose, but it is inconsistent.

Effort (out of 1 point)

Advanced Features:
