super smash bros algorithm

super smash bros algorithm

1. prescribes criteria

   • 1. Develop an Algorithm using Pseudocode conventions
     • Develop an algorithm for one of the Nintendo games – super smash bros
     • Pseudocode conventions must be used in the algorithm such as all key words must be in bold and capital. Use indentation when a code belongs to a particular block of code, START and END should be at the beginning and the end of the algorithm
     • Example of keywords of pseudocodes are IF, ELSE, ENDIF, ENDELSE, INPUT, OUTPUT, START, END, THEN, IS EQUAL TO, WHILE, ENDWHILE.
   • 2. Super Smash Bros
     • o Develop an ultimate high damage finishing offensive strategy to eliminate the opponent o Use at least five different attack moves (Side Special Move, Final Smash, Down Special Move, etc)
       • For super smash bros develop a high damage strategy
       • The strategy should be offensive, which means that we do not need to make a defensive move
       • The moves should eliminate the opponent
     • Use five (5) conditions (IF, ELSEIF, ELSE) in your pseudocode
       • The pseudocode must include 5 different unique moves to damage the opponent using IF, ELSEIF, and ELSE
       • Example offensive moves of luigi: Down smash 29% damage Suction shot 5% damage
       • Fireball 11% damage Super jump punch 46% damage Lead headbutt 26% damage

2. algorithm consturcts

   • sequence
     • Sequence is a set of instructions that are followed one step at a time.
   • assignment
     • Creating a variable and assigning it a value
   • selection
     • A statement that helps a program choose what to do next
   • ondition
     • Condition is the rule that has to be fulfilled or need to be done
   • iteration
     • Iteration also called repetition and is used when something is repeated over and over again, so the program goes round in a loop

3. chosen character moves

   • down smash 29% damage
   • Suction shot 5% damage
   • Fireball 11% damage
   • Super jump punch 46% damage
   • Lead headbutt 26% damage

4. super smash bros game

5. hardware

   • screen
     • the screen shows what youre doing
   • joycon remote
     • a joy con remote is that thing that lets you control your character
   • nintendo switch
     • The Switch is a tablet that can either be docked for home console use or used as a portable device, making it a hybrid console.
   • SSB gamecard or download
     • a small, removable flash memory card that contains the full game software for your Nintendo Switch console
   • joycon holder

6. character choices

   • pikachu
     • pros
       • Exceptional mobility and recovery Pikachu has one of the best recovery options in the game, with Skull Bash offering the longest back-to-stage recovery and Quick Attack providing a fast, low-risk escape. Its frame 2 air dodge and small hurtbox make it extremely hard to combo
       • High attack priority and combo potential Pikachu’s fast, high-priority moveset allows for punishing opportunities and chaining into dangerous combos
     • cons
       • Low durability As one of the lightest fighters, Pikachu can be KO’d at much lower percentages than heavier characters, especially against strong finishers
       • Poor range Ground tilts and grabs have short range, and Pikachu lacks disjoints in many moves, limiting approach options outside of Thunder Jolt
   • luigi
     • pros
       • Exceptional combo and grab game Luigi’s down throw is one of the best combo starters in the series, leading into zero‑to‑death or KO setups on most characters. His grab game is strong, with a low‑endlag tether grab and a grab aerial that drops a plunger projectile, useful for both combos and edgeguarding
       • Fast, safe aerials Most of Luigi’s aerials have fast startup, low lag, and lenient auto‑cancel windows, allowing safe multi‑aerials and quick combo breaks . Luigi Cyclone’s frame‑1 invincibility in air is a reliable combo breaker
     • cons
       • Slow grab startup His extended grab has a slow startup, making it riskier to use close‑range
       • Low damage per hit While his combos can be deadly, his individual hit damage is modest, so he relies on stringing moves together
