Bomber Man
This is a simple "Bomber Man" game written in Python 3, based on the PyGame library.
Download & Install
First clone the project available on GitHUB under GPL:
$ git clone https://github.com/orel33/bomber
To install Python (root privilege required):
$ sudo apt get install python3 pip3
To install the PyGame library (user privilege enough):
$ pip3 install pygame
To start the game:
$ ./bomber.py
By default, the map "maps/map0" is used, but you can generate you own map (mymap) and use it as follows:
$ ./bomber.py maps/mymap
Rules
This game is similar to a classic "Bomber Man". This is a standalone version of the game for a single player. In this version, a single character (or player) starts the game with an initial amount of 50 health points. Each fruit brings a character with 10 extra health points, while each bomb blast removes 10 health points. A character is dead when its health points reach zero. A character gets immunity for a while after he's hit by a bomb blast. After a character drops a bomb, he is disarmed for a while.
To play, just use the following keys:
- use arrows to move the current character
- press space to drop a bomb at current position, that will explode after a delay of 5 seconds
- press escape to quit the game
The implementation of this game follows a simple MVC architecture (Model/View/Controller).
Known Bugs
There is a known bug in the pygame.mixer module, which causes high CPU usage, when calling pygame.init(). A workaround is to disable the mixer module, pygame.mixer.quit() or not to enable it, by using pygame.display.init() and pygame.font.init() instead. Consequently, there is no music, no sound :-(
