Overview
As a final project for my Programming Principles course, I undertook the development of a Battleship game using Python. The primary objective of this project was to design and implement a computer program that accurately replicated the gameplay of the traditional Battleship board game.
Through this endeavor, I aimed to enhance my programming skills in Python, explore game development concepts such as game loops, user interfaces, and artificial intelligence, and create a fun and challenging gaming experience.
- Main Objective:
- To develop a playable Battleship game in Python that adhered to the traditional rules of the game while incorporating modern programming techniques.
Process
Challenges
- Implementing a robust turn-based system
- Creating a user-friendly interface for desktop
- Ensuring smooth gameplay and responsiveness
- Testing the game thoroughly to identify and fix bugs
Solutions
- Used a state management approach to track player turns and game state
- Designed a user-friendly interface using Tkinter
- Optimized performance by efficiently updating the game board and UI elements
- Performed thorough manual testing with multiple players to identify and fix bugs
