This is a rudimentary Breakout game that the user will play in Terminal.
It was built utilizing starter code used in Pygame Lab (details below).
The current skateboard version contains a paddle and a ball that, when they collide with one another causes the ball to bounce, reversing direction.
Everytime the ball and paddle collide the user gets a point.
When the ball and paddle do not collide the ball resets from the top of the screen.
Future versions will include bricks with additional scoring logic and ball tracking.
I installed and utilized Pygame according to the following:
pip3 install pygame
If you don't yet have the SDL dependency, you may also need to run:
brew install sdl
Run the first "game" with the command:
python3 hello_pygame.py
Run the interactive game with the command:
python3 game.py
