5:30 PM – Python Game Development – Bill

Today We:

1. Continued to work on the Dragon Birdie project
2. Created a new file for our Bird class
3. Created a Bird class with the attributes: x, y, size
4. Created the update method in the Bird class
5. Cleaned up the code duplication with birds
6. Made the birds have a random image loaded

Your HW:

1. Create a new attribute in the Bird class called type, it will be the random number from the BIRD_ID list
2. Create a new attribute in the Bird class called direction which needs to be a parameter in the __init__ method
   • Make it a number
   • In the update method check for the direction
     • if it is 0, make the bird move to the right
     • if it is 180, make the bird move to the left
   • Do not worry about the birds flying backwards and trying to flip the images
