HackHealth 2016: Zombie Apocalypse

Inspiration

I was always curiouos about how video games ran. Therefore, I wanted to create a video game myself, even if it was a simple text-based game

What it does

It is a simple text based game about a zombie apocalypse in Stony Brook. It was intended to be sarcastic and humorous!

How I built it

I used PyCharm to program the whole thing

Challenges I ran into

It was extremely difficult because I have no background in programming. I am currently taking an introductoy course for Computer Science (CSE 101: Introduction to Computers) Even though the class is currently covering Python, I had to teach myself a lot of information in order to be successful with my program.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I am very proud that I was able to write a program this extensive. The only program that I've ever written was a "Hello, World!" program on Python as well.

What I learned

I used several YouTube videos to learn more about Python.I learned to use if and else statements, which essentially helped my goal of creating a simple game.

What's next for HackHealth 2016: Zombie Apocalypse

The possibilities are endless...It is after all an unfinished game, due to the limitless possibilities that can occur in a text-based game. I also look forward to learning knew things about programming in general!!!
