Git RPG

  A cmdline github hand-on game

Inspiration

I've been relying on git and github by a LOT lately, familiarizing with commands and it's flags. This always ends me up searching in stackoverflow. So in-order to reinforce my knowledge and to make my life a little simpler, I attempted to make this app.

What it does

This is a simple command line game, that relies on executing the correct git commands to progress further.It has multiple ways to solve a problem and hence helps to get a hang of the commands and makes version control easier to handle.

How I built it

Simple basic python and a few stylish ASCII arts. A few helper and pip libraries as well.

Challenges I ran into

• Anomalies in design structure
• Design of the levels so that the user doesn't soft lock himself into a level

What we learned

• More python and UI automation.
• Python metaclasses and wrappers

What's next for Git RPG

• More levels, More complex strategies, multiple endings.

Note

• The whole thing was made by me within this weekend.
• Totally underestimated the problem and finally realized that I bit more than I could chew.
• Enjoy every bit of it tho, felt I did something productive on a weekend.
• The app needs much more levels which are incoming soon as I learn more about git
• Originally submitted to tidy-hacks

Built With

• python
• sqlite
