Homework 3- Fall 2007

Zelda Runner!

1. Your function should be named zeldaRun (case-sensitive) and your file should be named hw3.py
2. Your function should create enough frames so that the movie scrolls through the entire background (this implies that the background should move).
3. Your movie should run at a rate of 30 frames per second
4. EACH FRAME should have your first and last name visible in the upper left hand corner (This is very easy to do in JES, so that is how it should be done.).
5. The movie will be of a sprite of your choice running through the background maze. Further, the sprite must use chromakey; if the sprite has a solid background, you will lose 10 points.
6. You will begin your character in the room that makes up the lower left corner of the map. It will run (Yes, you must animate your sprite. The sprite should be in roughly the same place, possiby shifted up or down, but the picture should change so that it looks like it is running.) to the room directly under the room which comprises the topmost right corner (it has a green dragon in it).
7. While it is not necessary to totally obey where walls are, you may only move up, down, right or left. No diagonal movements are allowed. Further, you may not pass through the black areas, but instead, must pass through the rooms.

Extra Credit:

• 10 points for getting your character to only utilize doors to enter and exit rooms.
• 10 points for getting a second sprite to take an alternate route through the maze.

How the TA will grade:

• You must turn in at least the following files and any sprites needed to make your movie work:

• Your TA will view your .mov files, then run your .py files, and use Movie Maker to verify that your code generates the movies you submitted.

Extras

• Here are some sprites you can use. They don’t necessarily need to be totally to scale, but they should not “spill over” into another room.

• Here is the maze you will be using for this assignment (copy and paste into the address bar of your browser):

• Here are some links to previous assignments, and sample code which this one is based on:
