6 years ago Thank you for your feedback! Based on the feedback I just added a function where the intro can be skipped with the right mouse button, and also some background music haha. Glad you had a good time with it!
Comments, comments, comments. Oh, how I love comments. It makes everything much more legible and so much easier to understand, so thank you for doing that!
I also see that you have utilized a large portion of the p5.play library, and got it to work with your Fish class. This is something I had a lot of trouble with in my miniEx, so I'm really happy to see that it can work. Well done! (This is a polite way of saying that I will probably steal it later, just fyi).
As a game, I think it could have benefitted from having either a larger canvas or smaller figures. You can barely move as the diver when the program opens, giving you very little time to react or do anything really before you inevitably touch a fish. The hitbox of both the fish and the diver is also difficult to figure out, as the images overlap sometimes without provoking a reaction.
Also, when you "die" you are brought to a black screen which diplays your score. This is a nice feature, but I feel something more could have been done here. For instance, adding a simple restart option that skipped the intro. While it is funny, it can be annoying to hear over and over again as you try for a higher score.
These are just small things, however. I think you did a really good job on this exercise, and your thought process of creating a simple and understandable game that had no deeper (heh heh) meaning is fine for this exercise which focused primarily on objects and classes. From just looking at your other exercises, it seems you enjoy creating something that will entertain the user as they experience the program, and you bring that into this exercise too. I really liked that intro.
Nice!
