1. Existing Text Based Adventure Games

   • Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
     • The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is a comedic science fiction franchise created by British writer Douglas Adams, starting as a 1978 BBC radio series before becoming a best-selling novel.
       • Douglas Adams blends deadpan British absurdity, dry satire, and linguistic playfulness into a completely unique comedic voice.
       • • The story relies on a "picaresque" style, meaning characters wander aimlessly from one bizarre situation to the next. There is no traditional overarching plot or grand narrative arc, which can frustrate readers looking for a structured story.
   • Forests of Lyrica
     • classic-style, interactive text-based fantasy adventure game where players manage items and fight to survive a dangerous mystical wilderness.
       • Rebuilds natural habitats specifically for threatened native wildlife.
       • It takes decades for newly planted saplings to mature into fully functioning, biodiverse ecosystems.

2. Ideas for story

   • Escaping from crazy stepdad
     • Your fed up with ur dad and run away with stepdad chasing u down
   • Alcaztaz escape
     • You escape from alcatraz by finding tools and making supplies.
   • Being kidnapped and escaping
     • You get kidnapped into a abandened insane asylum and try to escape

3. Success Criteria

   • Your story must have at least 10 different variables in total
     • By having at least 10 variables multiple-choice questions
     • Having multiple different endings
   • You must have at least two choices for each input (IE. Yes | No, Left | Right, Buy | Sell)
     • Having Multiple different paths
     • Multiple different things to buy at a shop
   • You must use a WHILE loop
   • You must use variables that match your storyline
   • You must use Ascii and Ansi
     • By making a title from Ascii
     • By using Ansi to make your code look cool
   • You must use variables that match your storyline
     • Diffrent Path Choices
     • Inventory

5. Algorithm Construts

   • Modularisation
     • structural building blocks and automated techniques used to break a complex system down into smaller, self-contained, and manageable pieces
       • def get_tax(subtotal): return subtotal * 0.10
   • Iteration
     • It is the process of repeating a block of instructions multiple times until a specific condition is met or a set count is reached.
       • Set TOTAL_PRICE to 0 For EACH ITEM in the basket: a. Get the PRICE of the current item b. Add the PRICE to the TOTAL_PRICE Output TOTAL_PRICE
   • Selection & Condition
     • selection and condition refer to the process of making decisions in your code by evaluating whether a specific statement is true or false.
       • if temperature > 30: print("It's a hot day!")
   • Assignment
     • assignment is the process of storing a value inside a variable or updating an existing variable's value using the = symbol
       • username = "Alex"
   • Sequence
     • a sequence is a generic data type that represents an ordered collection of items where each element is indexed by an integer.
