ghubnerr / turtle-crossing

A Python version of Crossy Road

Crossy Road with Turtle Graphics

The Game

This code uses various instances of the Turtle class to create different objects. The player.py class is the main turtle, whose commands are listened by the Screen() object, waiting for key strokes of "Up","Down","Left" and "Right" to move the turtle a fixed step in the given direction.

car_manager.py holds instances of car objects that are generated inside the road gaps every 7 ticks so long the game is running. They are moved a set pace, until there is an increment in their velocity after the turtle reaches the finish line. The score is held by the scoreboard.py class, which in turn is another instance of the Turtle class, responsible for keeping track of the score on the screen, as well as writing "GAME OVER" once the game finishes.
