🎱 Physics-Based Ball Mechanics
Realistic ball bouncing and movement based on physics calculations. -
🧍 User-Controlled Paddle
Move the paddle using keyboard input to control the ball's trajectory. -
🧱 Multiple Block Types
- Regular Boxes – Standard destructible blocks.
- Brick Boxes – Requires multiple hits to destroy.
- Iron Boxes – Indestructible obstacles.
-
📈 Scoreboard System
Track your performance across all levels. -
🌌 Animated Backgrounds
Dynamic background animations to enhance gameplay. -
🧱 Collision Detection
- Wall and boundary collision handling.
- Ball and paddle collision detection.
- Ball-block destruction mechanics.
-
🎯 Game Flow Elements
- Game Over screen when all blocks are destroyed or the ball is lost.
- Pause/Play menu for game control.
- Three levels to play through.
- Python
- OpenGL (via PyOpenGL)
- GLUT (for windowing and input handling)
Before running the game, you'll need to make sure that you are using Python 3.x.x (preferably 3.8.x to 3.10.x). This project is not fully compatible with Python 3.11.x and above, and you might encounter errors due to version-related issues. It’s recommended to use Python 3.8.x or 3.10.x for optimal compatibility.
The OpenGL files are already included in the project within the OpenGL folder, so you do not need to install PyOpenGL separately.
To install any other required dependencies, run the following command:
- Python Version Warning: I've included a warning about using Python 3.11.x or above due to potential errors, recommending Python 3.8.x or 3.10.x.
- OpenGL Files Included: Clarified that the necessary OpenGL files are included in the project, so no installation is required.
- Dependencies Section: The rest of the installation remains as before.
