The final project for Codecademy’s programming course in computer science is to make a terminal game in python. I remembered wanting to play the game from an image match layout in Codecademy’s CSS course, so I decided to make my own match the images memory game.
I looked up image match games and realized my game board needed a theme. I chose shapes because they were the easiest for me to create using string characters and I was able to make more shapes by using large and small sizes of each one. The final game board has eight shape pairs and sixteen game pieces on a 4×4 board.
Python code
I wrote the game program in VS Code and the final program is split into two python files: one with string lists to make game boards and one with the game play variables and functions. The game file imports the game boards file, along with random.
In the game file, the game_board_solution() function uses the choice() method from random to assign shapes from the shape_nums list to each spot in the game_board_solution_dict. The start_game_setup() function prints the title, start game board, and instructions for the player.
To flip a game board piece, the player enters a row and column number, the player_piece. The play_game() function prints a game board with the shape at player_piece from the game_board_solution_dict. play_game() stores the shape number in the flipped_pieces list and the print_player_board() function prints a board using a shape row from the shapes_dict and three rows from game_piece_row.
When the player matches shapes, the matched_shapes_() function prints a message and stores the shape numbers from flipped_pieces in the matched_shapes list so the player cannot flip those pieces again. When the player matches eight shape number pairs from the matching_shapes list, the win_game() function prints a message and lets them play again with a new game board solution.
