2022 09 19 Meeting Minutes - Biscuitmunch/310A1Team2 GitHub Wiki

Attendance: All
Location: Zoom

Agenda:

• review the project that we are taking over
• create a list of changes that we intend to make during A2

Long list of issues (not all will be addressed)

Bugs found

Commands to exit aren’t consistent

• Left click
• Q (not functional)
• Most rely on X Bad user instruction

Snakes

• Snake needs to die when it hits wall (Theres actually a line to change this in the code already a boolean that changes whether you die or not)
• Command latency is quite noticeable
• Random key that is not move command also count in the command sequence it even block the exit button
• Commands accumulate when the movement is locked

Asteroids

• Pressing Q from asteroids doesn’t take you back to menu - dylan
• When you die and close the game using ‘x’, then restart the game doesn’t restart (idk if they wanted this)
• When you exit the game is it supposed to restart or continue at the last place

Space Invaders

• Space Invaders has no score indication
• No level progress indication
• The user starts with 5 lives but game restarts after one death

Breakout

• Can’t restart game after losing

UI changes

• Have a ‘game over’ screen on each game
• Have a consistent way to exit games (that isn’t the x)
• Show high scores during every game
• Show congrats message if you got a high score
• Show instructions at start of game
• Some games have sound effects some don’t
• Not size responsive - I reckon this is not doable cuz literally all the placing values are hardcoded

Next steps

• Everyone create an issue to work on from above list and self-assign and start coding
• plan meeting for sometime next week
