Midterm Project Progress

For our midterm project, we were tasked with making a game on Processing, so I started by making a sketch of the layout for my game, and I wrote down a simple explanation about the game.

Idea:
Basically, the player will move a sprite around the screen with the arrow keys and collects the green circles, each worth 1 point. Alternatively, the player must avoid the pink ones. If you collide with a pink circle, you will lose 1 point. Get 10 points to win the game!

Here is my sketch of the layout-

Process:
So, my current plan is to make booleans so that I can switch between the different pages. And I think I’ll have to make 2 classes: one for the pink circles and one for the green. As for the point counter, I still haven’t figured out how to implement that.

Progress:
And so far, my sprite is moving with the arrow keys on screen, and I haven’t had time to start making separate pages, I will work on it over the weekend.

Sprite Code:

PImage linksprite , bg ; // all of the images 
PImage[][] sprites;
int direction = 1;
int step = 0;
int x;
int y;
int speed = 3;
int mode;
boolean start; // for the start screen 
boolean play; // game screen
int pts; // points in game


void setup() {
  size (1000,700);
//bg = loadImage("bg");
  
 // start = true; 
  
  //if (start == false){
  linksprite = loadImage("linksprite.png");
  sprites = new PImage[4][10]; // 12 images across, 4 down, in the spritesheet

  int w = linksprite.width/10;
  int h = linksprite.height/4;

  for (int y=0; y < 4; y++) {
    for (int x=0; x< 10; x++) {
      sprites[y][x] = linksprite.get(x*w, y*h, w, h);
    }
  }
 
//}
  x = width/2;
  y = height/2;
  
  imageMode(CENTER);
}

void draw() {
  background(255);
  //if (start == true){
  //background(bg);
 
  //}
  
  
  //look at sprite sheet to determine which direction is which
  if (keyPressed) {
    
    //if (keyCode == ){
    
    
    //}
    
    
    if (keyCode == DOWN) {
      direction = 0;
      y+=speed;
    }
    if (keyCode == LEFT) {
      direction = 1;
      x-=speed;
    }
    if (keyCode == RIGHT) {
      direction = 3;
      x+=speed;
    }
    if (keyCode == UP) {
      direction = 2;
      y-=speed;
    }
    if (frameCount%speed==0) { //the % is a modulo - its an easy way to make a loop 
      step = (step+1) % 10;
    }
  }

  image(sprites[direction][step], x, y);
