Item 2

1. existing text-based adventure games

   • forests of lyrica
     • a game when players can explore a magical forest, solve riddles, collect items and interact with mystical beings to complete quests
       • limited vocabulary
       • has visual elements to make the game more easily understandable
   • Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy
     • based on a comedic science fiction series, a 1984 interactive fiction text based adventure game
       • hard to understand and win
       • complex code that makes many possible paths for the game

2. Algorithm constructs

   • sequence
     • a sequence is an ordered set of instructions or steps that a computer executes in a certain order
   • assigment
     • a funamental contrsuct in programming that sets or resets the value stored in the storage location denoted by variable name
       • choice + input
   • selection & condition
     • a programming construct that enables a program to choose between two or more paths depending on a true or false condition
       • if, else
   • iteration
     • iteration refers to the repeated execution of a block code until a specific condition is met or for a predeterminded number of timers
       • repetition
   • modurlarisation
     • the practice of dividing a large program into smaler, inderpendant and reusable components called modules
       • one section for a certain bit of code

3. Prescribed criteria

   • You must have at least two choices for each input (IE. Yes,No,Left,Right,Buy,Sell)
     • choices have an outcome
     • three choices
     • used many different choices
   • You must use a WHILE loop
     • use while true
     • use while at least once
     • use while health
   • You must use variables that match your story line
     • there is a road after choosing the variable
     • variables are the options related to the story and can change depending on what use picks
     • they are easy to understand and what they do to the story
   • Your story must have at least 10 different variables in total
     • variables are distinct
     • the variables contribute to the story
     • variables function properly

4. Coding constructs

   • IF statements
     • An IF statement is used to make descisions in your program
       • if choice == "laundry".
   • FOR loops
     • for loop is used to iterate over a sequence of items
       • for fruit in fruits: print(fruit)

5. Self determinded criteria

   • use ascii art at least once
     • the ascii art is pretty
     • he ascii art is related to the story
   • make the formatting of the story readable at pretty
     • the formatting is easy to understand
     • use symbols to decorate

6. ideas for story

   • chance based outcome
     • the choice made can either suceed or fail
       • if you choose to open a chest, the chance is random on what you receive inside
   • lose and gain health
     • you lose health when an undesirable outcome occurs
       • you try to kill a dragon but you have no weapon so you loose health
   • add multiple choices
     • when there is multiple choices to choice from
       • you can choose from three options such as village, city, town
