The game is a simple race. When it is started it will ask the use to "bet" and enter which color (each turtle is one fo the 6 raqinbow colors) turtle they think will win. After the user enters the bet, the game will populate the 6 turtles and they will start to move and one of them will win. It will then tell the user if they one or not.
What is used: Python and Turtle
To play this game the code would have to be forked or copied. Then run the code with
python main.py
or python3 main.py
place the bet when it opens and watch it run.
I think it would work on tkinter 8.5 but to not get the warning using whatever distribution method of python you want just make sure it has tkinter updated with it
Personal highlights: It was a cute little game that let me stretch my python brain muscles again as I working with that and javascript.
Struggles while building: Getting turtle to work, I kept getting a depreciation warning., Looking it up took me down a lot routes that I intrigued to learn more about (virtual enviroments being one of them) but It seemed to fix itself when I downloaded python from website, the brewed python I had used the computers tkinter and the one from the website included the newer version.
What I learned: That not all distributions of python are the same, but also while I haven't figure out virtual enviroments enough to comfortably used them. I learned a lot more about how people feel about them and that they can help with the different distributions but I still don't get all the different ways to use them or which to use.
