An addictive, arcade-like, 2D air defence game, made with Python3 and Pygame

Shoot down incoming enemy aircraft, by launching missiles with your mouse.

The missiles will fly in the direction you click. They have no homing device, so you need to lead your targets.

Your ship has four (4) missile tubes. The tubes are reloaded as you use them, but there is a small delay. If you shoot all four missiles very quickly, you need to wait for at least one tube to be reloaded, in order to fire again.

The game ends, when three (3) enemies have escaped.

The highest score of the session is displayed at the top of the main menu.

In Main Menu, you can enter Full Screen mode by clicking on the game resolution.

Requrements:

• Python3
  • Windows: Download Python3
  • Debian Linux: apt-get install python3.8
• Pygame:
  • python3 -m pip install pygame

• Copy the game.exe from airdefence/dist to the game root folder airdefence
• Double-click game.exe to run

Note: In the unlikely case that the game would crash or be killed with Task Manager, a temporary folder (approx. 20 MB in size) created in to [User]\AppData\Local\Temp\_MEIxxxxx would be left behind. A new folder is created each time, the new never effecting the old. To free the space, you need to delete the folder manually.

CI does not work. EXE Must be built manually.

• Batch files for making a fresh virtual enviroment: setup_venv.bat and
• building an exe build_exe.bat are supplied for you.
