🎮 Mini Game Collection
📌 Project Goal Students will design and implement three simple console-based games in Python. The goal is to apply programming fundamentals such as loops, conditionals, functions in a fun way, as well as git and github flow knowledge and collaborative techniques to program in teams.
🎯 Learning Objectives By completing this project, students will:
Gain experience in structuring small Python programs.
Learn how to use randomness, loops, and user input.
Practice writing functions to organize code.
Improve debugging and testing skills.
Build confidence by finishing playable games.
Practice coding in teams.
Improve git and github flow use.
🗓️ Weekly Breakdown Day 1–2: Game 1 — Number Guessing Game 🎲 Computer randomly picks a number between 1 and 100.
Player guesses until correct.
Program gives hints (“Too high!” / “Too low!”).
👉 Concepts practiced:
Random numbers (random.randint)
Loops (while)
Conditionals (if/else)
Day 1–2: Game 2 — Rock, Paper, Scissors ✊✋✌️ Player chooses rock/paper/scissors.
Computer randomly picks one.
Winner is decided and displayed.
👉 Concepts practiced:
Lists and choices
Randomness
Nested conditionals
Simple scoring system (optional)
Day 3–5: Game 3 — Tic-Tac-Toe ❌⭕ Two players take turns (can start with 2-player mode).
3x3 board displayed in console.
Game checks for winner or draw.
👉 Concepts practiced:
Lists (to store board state)
Functions (to check win/draw conditions)
Loops for turns
Printing a grid
Day 4–5: Menu System Menu options displayed in console.
Player chooses an option.
If a game is choosen run the game.
If exit is choosen, exit game If incorrect option is choosen send error message and ask again
👉 Concepts practiced:
Lists (to store option messages)
Functions (to run de menu)
Loops for prompting the user's choice
Printing the options
🗄️ Data Structures to Use Number Guessing: integers only.
Rock, Paper, Scissors: lists (["rock", "paper", "scissors"]).
Tic-Tac-Toe: 2D list or 1D list of 9 cells.
📋 Menu System At the end of the week, students can put all games into one program with a menu:
===== Python Mini Games =====
- Play Number Guessing
- Play Rock, Paper, Scissors
- Play Tic-Tac-Toe
- Exit
✅ By the end of the week, students will have a playable game collection in Python, and they’ll see how small programs can add up to something bigger.
