PyWeek - Cat Devs - feedback

I had to read the source code to understand what to do; next time please remember to include instructions in the README. I found the vendor screen but I don't think buying anything worked. The shoot-em-up aspect of the game is fun to play for 30 seconds and I liked the bugs gettings smaller as I shoot them.

I feel like you didn't spend your time wisely in this project. You have poetry and pre-commit, dotenv settings, docker files and GitHub actions... and you did code reviews... but the game abruptly exits when you die, and you don't have any sounds. The investment in development tooling and code quality is not going to pay off in a game jam or hackathon.

well, after installing two dependencies I got it working without poetry :
pip install arcade
pip install python-dotenv

then:
python -m src

This did the trick to run it. Not so difficult.

The game felt unfinished, no sound nor sound effects. Some visual artifact of a shot on the left of the ship was there (not sure if by accident or not, but it moved as the ship did left and right). At least a hit box and a high score. Single damage ends the game is a bit unforgiving but ok.

is just basic shooter game, and there is no screaming nor snake
dependencies installation is complicated
