A game to learn python by typing into a browser-based interpreter

this is a work in progress

Current version uses

Installing

  1. Install Node JS

  2. Checkout this repository with

    git clone https://github.com/edgarjcfn/pylearn.git

  3. At the repository folder, install npm dependencies

    npm install

  4. Still at the repository folder, install bower dependencies

    bower install

  5. Run the local development server with

    grunt dev

After that, point your browser to http://localhost:8081 and you're ready to go

Building levels

  • See the files at pylearn/dev/game/assets/levels
  • Include your own files that define levels
  • Include your level names (in order) at the top of pylearn/dev/game/states/preloader.ts
  • Reload your browser and play your levels.

At the moment the only objective type is to capture all treasure chests with the char.pickUp() python function. In the future I intend to add more objective types
