Laboratory 1

The goal of this lab is to develop a first prototype of 2D serious game similar to those used to assess or train cognitive skills. The focus of the games is on the technology. It will not be a valid neurorehabilitation tool (remember the Lumosity case). The games will be variant of the same category and will be based on a card board.

The games will be developed progressively in python (version 3.7 or above) using the library pygame . To install pygame just do:

pip install pygame  (or pip3)

To be able to use pre-defined elements such as the scene graph and widgets, you’ll also neeed to install the library pygame_gui

pip install pygame_gui  (or pip3)

We will develop the game progressively and each team will work on its own variant of the game.
