SUMMARY:5 PM - Intro To Python - Darin
DESCRIPTION:What We Did Today:\n\n\n\nAdded the fireball and made it shoot from the players location\, and triggered it on command using the space key\n\nWe added a timer for launching the fireball a bit differently\, where we only reset the timer value when the space key is pressed so that there is no delay\n\n\n\nHomework:\n\n\n\n\n# for your homework\, I want you to add in the code that creates a fireball\, a way to make the fireball change directions depending on if the player is facing the right or the left\n\n# Step 1: Add a direction attribute in the fireball class\n# Step 2: Make the fireball move to the right or to the left depending on self.direction in the fireball class\n\n# Those 2 parts should be similar to the bird class^\n\n# Step 3: grab the direction of the player in main using self.player.direction\, and pass that as a fireball parameter.\n\n# We will go over this in more detail on Monday!\n\nwhen you are done submitting this\, by Sunday night I will leave comments to your homework so you will need to update your project from the upper left\, and if it asks you to merge\, merge yours\n\n\nNotes:\nIf you have any questions\, feel free to email me at ddjapri@ayclogic.com

SUMMARY:5 PM - Python Game Development - Darin
DESCRIPTION:What We Did Today:\n\nChanged the direction of the fireball depending on the player direction\nMade the birds disappear when the fireball collided with them\nRe explained why the timer works differently for the fireball\nAdded an extra feature to the parameter for groupCollide so that different things can happen when two different sprites collide\nAdded a score variable to keep track and learnt how to make the text for the score appear using pygame.font.SysFont()\nWill learn about game modes next week!\n\nHomework:\n\n\n\n\n# for your homework\, I want you to make a new method called  create_fireball_with_skill that lets you shoot 2 fireballs at once when you press the e key (instead of the space key)\n\n# You can check if the e key is pressed using \nif keys_pressed[pygame.K_e]:\n\n# You don't have to change anything compared to the create_fireball method\, you just need to add an extra fireball into the fireball group at the same time but with a different y position.\n\n# We will go over this in more detail on Monday!\n\nwhen you are done submitting this\, by Sunday night I will leave comments to your homework so you will need to update your project from the upper left\, and if it asks you to merge\, merge yours\n\n\nNotes:\nIf you have any questions\, feel free to email me at ddjapri@ayclogic.com

SUMMARY:5 PM - Python Game Development - Darin
DESCRIPTION:What We Did Today:\n\nAdded the game landing page using game modes\nBlitted out the play button on screen and enabled mode switching when the screen is clicked\nWe also corrected and fixed how to make a skill fireball shot.\n\nHomework:\nYour homework is to make a giant fireball whenever the b key is pressed. \n\nYou can only use the giant fireball after 100 milliseconds\, so use a different timer like self.giant_fireball_timer = GIANT_FIREBALL_TIMER where GIANT_FIREBALL_TIMER = 100.\nYou have to make a new method for all of this\, perhaps called self.create_giant_fireball().\nFor the fireball adding itself\, you only need to change the size\, but you need to make a new group and a new group collide for the giant fireball so that it doesn’t disappear when touching enemy birds.\n\nNotes:\nYou can contact me via ddjapri@ayclogic.com for any questions or concerns.

SUMMARY:5 PM - Python Game Development - Darin
DESCRIPTION:What We Did Today:\n\nUpdated and finished our game landing page mode\, where we spawned a title\, the birds\, the clouds\, and made the game only start when we click within the play button’s boundaries.\nMade the game reset to the landing page if the player bird gets defeated.\n\nHomework:\nIf you haven’t done so already\, your homework is: \n1) Make the clouds spawn and move from both directions (left to right and right to left) the same way your birds move from both direction. \n2) After this\, make it so that when the player shoots a fireball\, the fireballs are not directly on top of the player bird\, so you want to change the x coordinate for spawning the fireballs (both the regular fireballs\, special fireballs\, and giant fireballs) \nNotes:\nYou can contact me via ddjapri@ayclogic.com for any questions or concerns.

SUMMARY:5 PM - Python Game Development - Darin
DESCRIPTION:What We Did Today:\n\nAdded background music and sound effects to our program.\nFixed some bugs and tweaks such as the fireball spawning on top of our player\, as well as the score variable not resetting after the player dies.\nCreated a giant fireball timer display that changes colors when the timer hits 0.\n\nHomework:\nPrepare 1-2 sentences on how the finished Birdie game could be improved\, or what features could be added to make the game more fun! You will talk about it in class next week. \nNotes:\nYou can contact me via ddjapri@ayclogic.com for any questions or concerns.
