This one week process was quite amazing, as I learnt pygame and created my first ever game. I didn't actually used oops in it as it was my first game. In future I would definitely create some complex and big games, but I am happy I ended up creating something.
Most challenging thing for me was that time was very limited for me as I used to spent only 2hrs a day on project, rest of time I had other school work. In these 2 hrs I had to do both reading docs and writing logic.. At some points I do stuck and needed help, thanks to youtube, stackoverflow and geeksforgeeks to help me out.
The Idea of game is inspired by a flash game namely Ben 10 Critical Impact, I just tried to remaster that game in castaway style and made this game. I would surely request you to check out this game and give your reviews.
Thanks for reading....

Right now is dangerous to add new features. I tried my game on Windows with Intel's video card. It works very slow. So I added pygles.batches for ground tiles. Now it is better.
I saw some errors when initializing pyglet.media in some environments, so I added run_game_sound_workaround.py. It skips media if it not working.

Getting super close to uploading a final-worthy version of the game!
Spider Island - Friday: More mechanics, more levels, and start/end screens
Posted by karx on 2020/09/26 03:04
"You know what this game really needs?, " I asked myself, "ladders. We really need ladders." Using the Python "arcade" library's Physics Engine, I calculated the physics and movement of the player when on a ladder. Then, I drew a ladder sprite in
Piskel. After this, I created water, and did mostly the same process. Calculate physics and movement, then draw the sprites.
Once I had implemented ladders and water, I wrote the code to switch between levels. Now, I need more levels. For this, I used the
Tiled Map Editor to make levels, and made sure to include ladders and water.
After that, when every level of the game was done, I added start, end and death screens. The End screen shows when you reach the end of the last level (AKA when you've killed all the spiders and boarded the escape boat).
The death screen shows up when you die. Obviously.
The start screen is the first thing that shows up when you start the game. It also displays a helpful little tip!
Tomorrow, I will add sounds to the game, such as a sound that plays when you shoot something, a sound that plays when you pick up a ruby, etc.
I will also polish up the game a little.

Now is time for bug testing and little tweaks!

Yeah!
I have added storytelling and endgame. The game have one ending this time. But you can lose (it is not announced) if you do some stupid things smartly :)
I tried my game on Windows with Intel video card. It working slow. Tomorrow I should try something. I did not work on graphics this week.

Tuba9000 - Minimalist entry at best
Posted by ntoll on 2020/09/25 18:44
Work this week has been hellish. I've had no chance to do anything on PyWeek. :-(
If I'm gonna do an entry, it'll be done completely in the next 24 hours.
That's a tall order.
Catch the life - Late start is still a start

Hello!
It was my dream to do a game for pyweek for a long time, but I usually skipped pyweek because of it happening in not so good timing (for me). Now I was prepared for this, but too lazy to start and it was too hard to come up with an idea for it. I finally did my mind on this and here I am to introduce you with what I want to do. My idea is to make a simulator of a castaway, but due to time limits it'll probably be just fishing simulator in island atmosphere. If I have enough time, I'll incorporate more things like cleaning the beach, building and fixing a shelter, etc.
Thanks for reading.
