Ignore that. Anyway,

~~It might not work~~

Hey guys! I've been working on this a little bit now, and I think it's done. I was going to work on this project a little longer, but school's almost over and I really want to get some other C++ projects out of the way before it ends.

Also special thanks to:

bruh

bruh what?

pretty nice dude. I like the colors and just not knowing what the heck these little letter bois are gonna do next

oh thanks!

np dude!

Wow...

thanks!

Cool! Thanks for mentioning me =)

This is awesome! If you want to, then you can maybe try to add coins and/or make an account for the user? Also, if you want to, maybe when bullets hit each other, you could create like a 3x3 explosion and it gives one hit to everybody in range. It is your choice if you want to add it.

thanks for the feedback!

Dang, this is a great game! Keep up the great work! :D

thank you!!

np :)

Honque Honque Oui! This game is cool.

thanks!

you can jump over bullets, meaning you can continue shooting at a letter, also if you stand inside a letter it cant hurt you
also:

also also i forked it to reduce flicker and make it easier to tell whats going on
https://repl.it/@Nettakrim/py-Shooter#main.py

oh that's actually does look a little better! I was thinking of doing that, but I thought it'd look bad lol

i think i found a way to remove the flicker, testing it...

a way to remove flicker... if it works that will be very usefull

edit: looked at your repls, found it and wow that looks good


def clear():
  print("\033[0;0H")

instead you can just do this

also if you have a menu system that works like this


a=func1
b=func2
enter an option


a=func1
b=func2
enter an option a
"hi"

you can do
\033[J at the end of the input
to clear the "hi" text

usefull website

also print("\033[?25l",end="") will remove the cursor
and print("\033[?25h",end="") will put it back

oh that's cool, didn't know that. I'm not that familiar with linux so I'm still learning about ansi

oh, Thanks! but please make it into a string so I won't be freaking out.

there! i fixed it :)

Nice!

thanks!

Great game! Do you mind if I borrow this for a machine learning project I'm working on?

The addiction level of this game is above anything else I've ever played on repl.it share so sick XD

yay! thank you!

😜

Do you want to make a collaborative repl ? A game in html, css and js ?

no, sorry

Remember: Arrow keys.

no clue how, sorry :)

map up arrow to w, map down arrow to s et cetera

how the diggigidy darn did you program the enemies?

umm.. idk, typed some keys on my keyboard, and things worked

Awesome! Can i help with threading? (make the game run even when the user is not pressing anything)

Oh yeah, sure! I actually had SOOOO much problems trying to get threading to work in Python it's completely insane. This is my first real python project, so I don't know much, but I think Python has a GIL or something that prevents that, but I think there some workarounds to that but I have no clue how. So do you just wanna fork the repl and maybe invite me over?

sure! Its pretty simple :D

python threading is easy bro. Read the docs
