I’ve been playing around with Python lately. Building small programs to get familiar with the language. I’m working on a text-based ‘choose your own adventure’ game for my daughter. The game is based in an unfamiliar forest with many trails. The main character has to navigate their way through the forest to the destination. There will be other creatures and people to interact with and to get advice from along the way. This style of game is great for the imagination, and I cannot wait for my daughter to play it! I’ll post a sample of it when I am a bit further along.
Other than the game, I have written a simple number guessing game and a Rock, Paper, Scissors game. The number guessing game allows you to set the range of numbers that are in play and lets you know if you guessed high or low after each guess. It also will tell you how many guesses it took to get the correct number. Rock, Paper, Scissors is just what you would think. When you quit the game, the program will display how many games you won, the computer won and how many you tied. It’s been fun writing these simple programs. Tech with Tim has lots of tutorials on YouTube. I am enjoying his content. I’ll post more as I improve.
