Space Dodge

A game where you dodge bullets that are coming down from the top of the screen. It can only be played with a keyboard.

Description

This is just a pygame project which I followed a YouTube tutorial to make.
I have been adding new features such as sound effects, and lives and will try to add any suggestions!
Please leave them in Issues under the "suggestion" tag.

Note

This project is currently in active development, I work on it during my free time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Important

Requirement
Make sure you have pygame & python installed!

Instructions to use the game

The instructions to play the game are in-game.

Important

Are you on Windows?
If you are on Windows, you will need to run python in terminal/command prompt on its own and download Python from the Microsoft store instead of the website.

1. Download Python from python.org. Make sure it is correct for your computer.
2. Download the zip file from the main page of the repository. Click the green Code button and click Download Zip
3. Extract/unzip the file to a desired location.
4. Open the terminal on your computer and navigate to the extracted folder.
5. Type: pip install pygame to install pygame.
6. In the extracted folder, find main.py, and run this file.
   You can also right-click it, click copy path, go to terminal/command prompt and type python PATH. Replace PATH with the path to the file.
   The game should start, but if you have any trouble, create an issue with the tag "help wanted".
