Now the coin moves around (27.1.2022)

Now the tiles does not stop him when he jumps. Changed some sounds.

Last video update 23.1.2022 – added double jump

Added coins 11.1.2022

This game is a work in progress and started from a ‘template’ made by dafluffypotato. I made some changes a couple of years ago and now I will try to make a complete videogame out of it.

First change I made, was in the map. I made it in a way that the player can go up or down and not just left and right, so that it seems that he is in a labyrinth more than in a traight path.

Then I thought to a way to make a path that will be surely free of block until the end of the maze. As you can see here there is only the path to the exit.

def create_map() -> list:
    ''' Map 30 rows x 300 columns generated randomly '''
    # It's called by game_map and is used to blit the map in tilerects()

    data = [] # will contain the rows with 0 and 1 generate randomly
    def generate_map_filled():
        data.append([1 for x in range(300)])
        for row in range(30): # 30 rows of 0 and 1
            data.append([choice([0,1]) for x in range(300)])
            # data.append([choice([1]) for x in range(300)])
            data[row][0] = 1
        data.append([1 for x in range(300)])

    def generate_path():
        percorso = [] # used to place the brothen on the path
        col = 10 # row
        row = 10
        mem = 0
        while col < 299: # until end of 300 col
            # data[x][d] = 0
            digr = choice([0,1,2])
            if digr == 0 and mem !=2: # goes up
                if row > 1:
                    row -=1 
            if digr == 1: # goes right
                col += 1
            if digr == 2 and mem != 0: # goes down
                if row < 29:
                    row += 1
            mem = digr

            data[row][col] = 0
            percorso.append([row, col])
        return percorso

    def player_space():
        data[10][10] = 0
        data[10][11] = 0
    
    def brother_place(percorso):
        # data[y] = list(data[y])
        x, y = choice(percorso)
        data[x][y] = 3
        # data[y] = "".join(data[y])
        print(f"my brother is at height:{y} width{x}")

    # map algorhithm
    generate_map_filled()
    percorso = generate_path()
    player_space()
    brother_place(percorso[100:])
 
    return data

Then I added other empty spots, so that the path is “unvisible”.

Changed the “platforms” imagese

To generate randomly the map with this tiles there is this code

data.append([choice([0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,6,2]) for x in range(300)])

There are more chancecs to get a 0 (empty space) and an equal change to get a coin or a platform.

See ya for the next development and some code.
