To run this code, you'll need to have the following dependencies installed:

1. Python: You'll need Python 3.6 or later installed on your system. You can download the latest version of Python from the official website: https://www.python.org/downloads/

2. Arcade Library: The Arcade library is a Python library for creating 2D games. You can install it using pip, the Python package installer:

   pip install arcade

   If you're using a virtual environment or have multiple Python versions installed, make sure you're installing the library in the correct environment.

3. Sprite Sheet Image: You'll also need the "ghost_sprite_sheet.png" file, which contains the sprite sheet for the animated character. Make sure this file is in the same directory as your Python script.

Once you have Python and the Arcade library installed, and the sprite sheet image file in the correct location, you should be able to run the code without any issues.

Note that this code doesn't include any actual API call functionality; it's just a skeleton to demonstrate how you can integrate API calls and display the response in a speech bubble. You'll need to replace the commented line # Make API call here and update self.speech_bubble.text with your actual API call code and update the self.speech_bubble.text with the received response.

Generated sprite sheet using StableDiffusion

Claude.ai seems to be making up some stuff. Here is the answer from GPT 4

Below is a Python script that uses the Arcade library to animate a character walking using a sprite sheet. The sprite sheet is assumed to be arranged in an 8x8 grid, with each cell containing a frame of the animation.

Firstly, ensure that you have installed the Arcade library in your Python environment. You can install it using pip:

pip install arcade

Here's a simple script to animate the character:

import arcade
import os

# Constants
SCREEN_WIDTH = 800
SCREEN_HEIGHT = 600
SCREEN_TITLE = "Sprite Sheet Animation Example"

# Constants for the sprite sheet
SPRITE_SCALING = 1.0
SPRITE_SIZE = 128  # The size of the sprite in the sheet
SPRITE_IMAGE_COUNT = 64  # Assuming an 8x8 grid
COLUMNS = 8
COUNTDOWN = 1  # Time in seconds to update the frame

class MyGame(arcade.Window):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT, SCREEN_TITLE)

        self.character_list = None

        # Load the texture at the beginning
        self.character_walk_textures = []

        # Set up the player info
        self.current_texture = 0
        self.frame = 0
        self.countdown = COUNTDOWN

        # Set the background color
        arcade.set_background_color(arcade.color.AMAZON)

    def setup(self):
        # Set up the game and initialize the variables
        self.character_list = arcade.SpriteList()

        # Assuming the sprite sheet is in the 'resources/images' directory
        sprite_sheet_path = os.path.join("resources", "images", "character_sheet.png")

        # Load the sprite sheet
        self.character_walk_textures = arcade.load_spritesheet(
            sprite_sheet_path,
            SPRITE_SIZE, SPRITE_SIZE,
            COLUMNS, SPRITE_IMAGE_COUNT // COLUMNS, SPRITE_SCALING
        )

        # Create the sprite
        self.character_sprite = arcade.Sprite()
        for texture in self.character_walk_textures:
            self.character_sprite.append_texture(texture)

        # Set the sprite's initial texture
        self.character_sprite.set_texture(self.current_texture)
        self.character_sprite.center_x = SCREEN_WIDTH // 2
        self.character_sprite.center_y = SCREEN_HEIGHT // 2

        # Add the sprite to the list of sprites
        self.character_list.append(self.character_sprite)

    def on_draw(self):
        # Render the screen
        arcade.start_render()

        # Draw the sprites
        self.character_list.draw()

    def update(self, delta_time):
        # Update the animation every second
        self.countdown -= delta_time
        if self.countdown <= 0:
            self.countdown = COUNTDOWN
            self.current_texture += 1
            if self.current_texture >= len(self.character_walk_textures):
                self.current_texture = 0
            self.character_sprite.set_texture(self.current_texture)

def main():
    game = MyGame()
    game.setup()
    arcade.run()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

In this script:

• MyGame is a subclass of arcade.Window and represents the game window.
• The setup method initializes the game, loads the sprite sheet, and prepares the sprite for rendering.
• The load_spritesheet function from the arcade library is used to load the sprite sheet texture, assuming all frames are the same size and evenly spaced.
• The update method is responsible for changing the texture of the character sprite to create an animation effect. This happens every second, as controlled by the countdown variable.
• main function initializes the game and starts the Arcade event loop.

Make sure to replace "resources", "images", "character_sheet.png" with the correct path to your sprite sheet image file in the setup method. The SPRITE_SIZE and SPRITE_SCALING values should also be adjusted based on the actual size of your sprites and how large you want them displayed on the screen.
