Python Programming | Intermediate | 04 Week | Text Based Adventure Game

Welcome to Intermediate Python Programming - Text Based Adventure Game Flex Edition an exciting four module course where we will learn how to build a text based adventure game in python. The great thing about the game is that it can be whatever you want it to be, adventure, mystery, or just a story about everyday life. If you already have experience with python and know about variables, lists, and loops, and are ready for an intermediate level course, this adventure is for you. You can make a space adventure game, a mystery, a funny, crazy, or amazing text adventure, or really anything you're interested in.  

In this course, we will build the elements of the game over four modules, we will build the elements of the game and look at some interesting programming. Students are encouraged to share their code and play each others games each week. They will also be provided with feedback on the games to keep them bug free, and working towards the next exciting iteration.

We will learn the next steps in python, functions, and how we can use them to jump around our programs to make an interactive story. We are going to build a game map, create mini games, write a story, and learn how to use random numbers, functions, and other python elements to make a game that is both fun to code, and fun to play. 

Each week we will work on a new element of the game, and over the duration of the course, build a game that both tells a story, and has a random enough design that it is slightly different each time you play. We will code a game together, and students will get the code at the end of each class to customize, or branch off their own unique concepts. Students should be prepared to work on their own games between classes, and exchange ideas about how to develop a plan and code that meets their story.
