IT 140 Projects Wiki

Welcome to the IT 140 Projects wiki for the text-based adventure game developed across Modules Five, Six, and Seven.

Start with the repository README. The README and phase README files contain the current step-by-step project workflow. This wiki provides supplemental explanations, examples of process, and troubleshooting guidance.

One Repository, Three Graded Checkpoints

You create one personal it140-projects repository in Module Five and continue using it through Module Seven.

Module	Activity	Main work
5	Project One	Design the game: storyboard, map, move pseudocode, get-item pseudocode
6	Module Six Milestone	Build a simplified movement prototype
7	Project Two	Build and test the complete game

See Project Workflow and SDLC for how the three activities connect.

Where Should I Start?

I am in Module Five

Start with the repository README, then use:

• Project One Design
• The repository analysis/README.md
• The repository design/README.md

I am in Module Six

Do not create another repository. Open the same personal it140-projects repository and see:

• Module Six Prototype
• The repository prototype/README.md

I am in Module Seven

Continue in the same repository and see:

• Project Two Final Game
• Testing and Debugging
• The repository src/README.md
• The repository tests/README.md

Wiki Pages

• Project Workflow and SDLC — Understand how Design, Prototype, Construction, and Test are spread across three modules.
• Project One Design — Review the purpose of the storyboard, map, and pseudocode.
• Module Six Prototype — Understand what the simplified prototype includes and what it intentionally leaves out.
• Project Two Final Game — Move from your own design to the complete Python game.
• Working with Project Files in VS Code — Open and edit Markdown, Draw.io, pseudocode, and Python files.
• Git and GitHub Workflow — Save work and continue across modules or computers.
• Testing and Debugging — Test one requirement at a time and use your map to plan playthroughs.
• Sources Citations and AI Use — Use outside help without losing ownership of your work.
• Help and Support — Choose the right support channel.
• FAQ — Answers to common project-repository questions.

Source Priority

The wiki is supplemental. When sources differ, use this order:

1. The current activity Guidelines and Rubric in D2L Brightspace
2. Instructions from your instructor
3. The current repository README and phase README files
4. This wiki

Assignment submission, grading, deadlines, accommodations, and instructor feedback remain in D2L Brightspace.
