Simple 2D racing game in Python written with Python Arcade library

Game requirements are included in requirements.txt file, install them with pip install -r requirements.txt.

Run the game with python main.py. Right now the game uses first joystick it finds to drive the car. If it finds no joystick connected it will print out error and exit.

To change the map simply switch filename in line game = MyGame("PyRacer", "test.csv") (one of the last lines in main.py) to your new track file.

First line of the track is float representing scale. Normally you should work somewhere between 0.75 and 0.5.

Second line is starting position of the car in form starting_row,starting_column,starting_angle. starting_row and starting_column are 0-based values, while starting_angle is angle in degrees the car should be pointing, 0 being straight top, -90 being right.

After that there should be N lines of M comma separated values each. N lines being rows of the track and M values being columns of the track. If given tile should be empty the value should be ommited. If given tile should load track sprite it should contain it's name. Track tiles are placed in sprites/track-texture directory.

• Collision detection
• Distance to wall(s) calculation
