Game Code :
Before code make sure to install : PIP install Pygame (write this in terminal)
Dodge the Falling Blocks Game
This simple game allows the player to dodge falling blocks using the Pygame library.
Components:
1. **Initialization**:
Import necessary libraries: `pygame`, `random`, and `sys`.
Initialize Pygame with `pygame.init()`.
Set up the display window dimensions (500x600 pixels).
2. **Color Definitions**:
Define colors using RGB tuples:
White: `(255, 255, 255)`
Black: `(0, 0, 0)`
Red: `(255, 0, 0)`
3. **Player Settings**:
Define the player's size (50 pixels).
Set the initial player position to the center bottom of the screen.
Define player movement speed (10 pixels).
4. **Enemy Settings**:
Define the enemy's size (50 pixels).
Randomly set the initial position of the enemy at the top of the screen.
Define enemy falling speed (5 pixels).
5. **Game Loop**:
Continuously run the game until the player loses:
Fill the screen with white color.
Handle events (keyboard input for movement and quitting the game).
Move the enemy down the screen; respawn at the top if it moves off-screen.
Check for collisions between the player and enemy blocks.
Draw the player (black square) and enemy (red square) on the screen.
Update the display and control the game frame rate (30 FPS).
6. **Game Over Logic**:
If a collision is detected, display "Game Over!" in red on the screen.
Wait for 2 seconds before closing the game.
Usage:
Use the left and right arrow keys to move the player and avoid falling blocks.
