DRE2213/BTE1522 – Week 3 – Python Programming – Game Completion

Hi DRE-ian and BTE-ian.

Well done, this week we have completed Step 7 of the Slider Game Project. With this final step, the game is now fully functional — a reflection of the coding concepts and logical thinking you’ve developed over the past 3 weeks.

Recap – From Step 1 to Step 7

Throughout the development of the Slider Game, you have applied multiple core Python programming fundamentals, including:

      1. Variables – for storing and updating game data such as player score and positions.

      2. Libraries – importing and using external Python modules to enhance functionality.

      3. Boolean Functions – determining game conditions like collisions or winning states.

      4. Mathematical Functions – calculating movement, limits, and speed.

      5. def Functions – structuring reusable code blocks to organize game logic.

      6. Control Statements – using for loops, if–else conditions, and input controls for smooth gameplay.

      7. Limiting Factors – defining boundaries to restrict player movements and maintain proper game flow.

These coding elements come together to form a dynamic and interactive Python game , a fun yet powerful way to learn how logical thinking and programming intersect.

Task Reminders

Before we move on, please make sure to complete the following:

      1. Submit your .py file and a snapshot of your game result on TINTA.

      2. Complete Quizzes 1, 2, 3, and 4 to reinforce your understanding of the Python concepts used.

Looking Ahead to Week 4

In Week 4, we’ll move into the next phase of our project — analyzing and modifying the Slider Game code. We’ll explore how small changes can create new gameplay dynamics, add scoring logic, and enhance interactivity.

Get ready to debug, modify, and take your Python game development skills to the next level!
