Bubble Train - Prototype

Bubble Train

Prototype

The prototype is written in python for speed of getting a proof of concept. This made it very interesting because this was the first I had seen of it. I must admit I'm very impressed, it a very easy and powerful language to work with. This bundled with pygame which is a wrapper for SDL.


Features

  • Generic track made up of lines and arcs
  • A bubble train which follows the track
  • A single cannon firing bullets / bubbles at the train
  • Merging of bullets / bubbles into the train
  • Removing groups of similar colour.

Screen shots

Please note the use of the very large gun. This is basically because we are rubbish at playing this game and couldn't hit the train for toffee.
