Inspiration

I love playing platformer games on CoolMathGames, so I decided to make my own with Python! I was also inspired by the Civilian Conservation Corps from FDR's New Deal.

What it does

Our project is a platformer game that has the player collecting trash throughout each level. If they collect all the trash from all the levels, they might get a cool surprise....

How we built it

We used the Pygame module from Python to build our game, and we used Github to collaborate. We also used the Tiled level editor to create the levels.

Challenges we ran into

It was quite difficult finding all the sprites and images online, since we needed specific dimensions and pixelated assets for our game, but we barely managed to find all the necessary assets. We also had a lot of trouble with files, as we had three different computers and it was difficult to have all the files in one place.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of the large levels that we made and our immersive UI.

What we learned

We learned how to better collaborate and work together with Github, Pygame, and Tiled.

What's next for Crustacean Conservation Corps

Next, we will add more levels and a bigger incentive for the user to collect all the trash from all the levels. We will also improve the UI and hopefully upload the game onto itch.io.
