Inspiration
Our inspiration for this project was from a popular game called Wordle. We all loved playing this game because it had some challenges and thinking about it but was still very fun so we thought to make something like it.
What it does
Our game is a word game where you have 30 seconds to guess as many words from the 7 random letters given to you. Our of the seven letters, 2 will be vowels and 5 will be consonants. For every word you guess, you will be given some points depending on how the word is. If it is 3 letters you will get 100 points, 4 letters 400 points, 5 letters 800 points, 6 letters 1200 points, and finally 7 letters 2000 points.
How we built it
We built our game on pygame using the built-in display window to display our game. We also imported a few other modules.
Challenges we ran into
There were many challenges we ran into but a few of them were getting the background to work, keeping the letters on the screen instead of disappearing every few seconds, making a start and end screen, and validating the words.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Making a successful timer, being able to type on the screen, start and end screens.
What we learned
Our whole team learned how to use pygame. We learned much more about python and how to code with python. We learned about think like functions, while loops and much more.
What's next for Wordlr
We hope to make the game a bit more sophisticated and maybe make some more game modes with more or less random letters given.
