Razzytails


Razzytails is a game meant to be playable on the Raspberry Pi. You are Razzy and you have to collect all of the items needed to get your Raspberry Pi working. Sounds simple, but wait! Honey Badgers are dead set on preventing you from getting your Raspberry Pi working. Avoid them at all costs! If a Honey Badger catches you, then you still have one more chance. Just answer a question about Python Programming and you can shake the Honey Badger off your trail and continue your quest.

Installation

OSX Mountain Lion

Installing pygame is not easy. Follow Julia Elman's excellent guide.

Linux and Raspberry Pi

  1. First, install pygame using your OS's tools (apt-get, yum, etc.).

     sudo apt-get install python-pygame
    

    N.B. Pygame comes with the raspbian distribution so you likely already have it for Raspberry Pi

  2. Next, download the code

     git clone https://github.com/calebsmith/razzytails.git
    
  3. Run the game

     cd razzytails
     ./main.sh
    

    or cd razzytails/src python main.py

  4. Go help Razzy build your Raspberry Pi!!
