• Make a game similar to Battle City game. Make a scheme similar to the original game, through which the avatars can move.

• Roles:

  • Two players, move their avatars using cursor keys or with ASDW keys
    • They can move up-down, left-right
    • They can fire projectiles, projectiles can move in 4 directions, depending on the direction to which the avatar is turned to
    • Each player has 3 lives for a level
    • At the beginning of the level, they are located in the base on the bottom of the screen
  • Enemies:
    • Appear randomly on the top of the screen
    • At the beginning of the level there are 6 enemy tanks
    • They move randomly between the blocks
    • Randomly, independently from each other, they shoot projectiles

• Rules:

  • There are infinite number of levels
  • If a projectile hits a player, he loses a life
  • If a projectile of the player hits an enemy tank, the enemy disappears from the map
  • If a projectile hits a block from which the map is made of, the block disappears
  • After each level, projectiles, players and enemies are moving faster
  • After each level, the number of enemy tanks is increased
  • For passing to the next level, players need to destroy all the enemy tanks
  • The winner is the player that survives the most amount of time
  • The game is finished either when all the players are dead or the enemies have destroyed the base

• For realization use Python3, PyQt5, multiprocessing. Work in teams of 2-4 members. Write a documentation in which there is a general description of the game and rezime all the pros and cons of using Python language, PyQt5 framework and paralelization.
