       • Its brilliant blend of absurdist British humour, clever wordplay, and deep philosophical satire.
       • People who don't brilliant blend of absurdist British humor, clever wordplay, and deep philosophical satire.
   • Forest of Lyrica

       • It create a fun page for player which designed by pictures and text.
       • The variables are not provided which will make players confuse.

   • video game context
     • utilises text
     • convey a story
     • gameplay elements
   • Clearance Requirements
     • entering commands through a text interface

3. Ideas for Story

   • Add Health Counter
     • a gameplay mechanism that tracks your character's current vitality or hit points (HP) as playing the game.
       • when characters in the story did dangerous things, the HP starts to decrease, once it goes to 0, the character dead.
   • Change to Sci-Fi Story
     • a narrative genre that explores the impact of actual or imagined science, technology, or biological systems on society and individuals.
       • instead of playing fun, players rather learn from the specific game or use their own knowledge to solve the problem that the game had created form them
   • Track Player Name
     • saving and using the identifier or custom label that a player types in or selects when starting the game
       • uses the name that players had provided to continue the game

4. Self-Determined CRiteria

   • story line

     • delivering the apple pie to customer's home
     • head to the market to buy the ingredients
   • multiple choices
     • conversation choicese
     • path choices
     • ingredients choices

5. Algorithm Constructs

   • Sequence
     • Sequence is the specific, ordered flow in which instructions or commands are executed—one after another, from start to finish
       • START INPUT select chess piece INPUT select board position OUTPUT message “Turn Over” STOP
   • Assignment
     • An assignment is an instruction that stores a value, result, or data object into a specific variable storage location
       • START DECLARE RobotName SET RobotName TO ”R2D2” OUTPUT “Welcome to the team, R2D2!” STOP
   • Selection & Condition
     • Selecting & condition is a fundamental control structure that allows a program to test a condition and choose which block of code to run next
       • IF Bubble Tea ordered THEN OUTPUT ‘Bubble Tea ready soon!’ ELSE OUTPUT "Please place your order" ENDIF
   • Iteration
     • Iteration is the process of repeatedly executing a block of code until a specific condition is met or a set number of runs is reached
       • FOR 3 steps MOVE forward ENDFOR
   • Modularisation
     • Modularisation is the practice of breaking down a large, complex software program into smaller, independent, and interchangeable parts called modules.
       • BEGIN INPUT item_price INPUT user_membership_type // Calculate tax inline SET tax = item_price * 0.10 // Calculate shipping inline IF user_membership_type == "VIP" THEN SET shipping = 0 ELSE SET shipping = 15.00 ENDIF SET total_cost = item_price + tax + shipping OUTPUT total_cost END

6. Coding Constructs

   • IF statement
     • An if statement is a fundamental programming construct that enables conditional decision-making by executing a specific block of code only if a designated condition evaluates to true.
       • START INPUT flavour choice (chocolate or strawberry) IF flavour EQUALS chocolate THEN OUTPUT "Enjoy your chocolate milkshake!" ELSE OUTPUT "Enjoy your strawberry milkshake!" ENDIF OUTPUT "Thanks for your order." STOP
   • FOR loop
     • A for loop is a programming control flow construct used to repeat a specific block of code a predetermined number of times or over a designated sequence of data
       • FOR 3 steps MOVE forward ENDFOR
