Inspiration

I really enjoyed playing Among Us and I still do, just cannot play as much now because no one is into the game anymore! I think the characters are so cute, which is why I make a turtle shape after them! I modeled it after my own Among Us character, which I always name "Eggplant" because it is dark purple with a leaf.

What it does

Eggplant is standing in space right now and whenever the spacebar is pressed, she will say an affirmation!

How I built it

I coded it using Python turtle because I have gotten to use turtle a lot being a Juni Learning tutor for Python. I created my own shapes in turtle, so the Among Us character is made completely out of coordinates that I plugged into the "screen.register_shape()" function. The affirmations are in a list of strings, which will be randomized and written out when the space key is pressed.

Challenges I ran into

At first, I was going to build an Among Us No Internet Game, modeled after the dinosaur no internet game that pops up whenever there is no internet connection. However, turtle kept crashing on me whenever I add a "while True:" loop, and without a "while True:" loop I cannot run the game, so I had to change my project completely and do affirmations. Definitely not my best work, but I am content with how it turned out.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

My adaptability to changing my project midway and still keeping it Among Us related.

What I learned

I learned to center text that are written by turtle and how to change the font size. I definitely will not be using python turtle for future Hackathons. I will look into Java and code a more advanced game.

What's next for Amongy Affirmations

I definitely want to add customizability to it, so the user can be asked to pick their Among Us character color and hat, so they will not be greeted by MY Among Us character, but their own. I also want to make sure that affirmations will not be repeated.
