Overview

In this assignment, you and your friend will apply design patterns to the provided Pacman code. This version of the Pacman game is a 2-player game, where each player tries to score as many points as possible. The first Pacman is controlled by WASD keys, while the other Pacman is controlled by IJKL keys.

Understanding the current code

There are three main classes:

  • PacmanGame
  • Pacman
  • Maze

PacmanGame

PacmanGame is the main class. It creates a Maze and 2 Pacman's. It feeds two Pacman's with user inputs. The following is its on_key_pressed method, which looks pretty ugly.

    def on_key_pressed(self, event):
        if event.char.upper() == 'A':
            self.pacman1.set_next_direction(DIR_LEFT)
        elif event.char.upper() == 'W':
            self.pacman1.set_next_direction(DIR_UP)
        elif event.char.upper() == 'S':
            self.pacman1.set_next_direction(DIR_DOWN)
        elif event.char.upper() == 'D':
            self.pacman1.set_next_direction(DIR_RIGHT)

        if event.char.upper() == 'J':
            self.pacman2.set_next_direction(DIR_LEFT)
        elif event.char.upper() == 'I':
            self.pacman2.set_next_direction(DIR_UP)
        elif event.char.upper() == 'K':
            self.pacman2.set_next_direction(DIR_DOWN)
        elif event.char.upper() == 'L':
            self.pacman2.set_next_direction(DIR_RIGHT)

While the current game is playable, the scoring function does not work. You will use the Observer pattern to implement score updates.

Pacman

A Pacman is the key object. It works with the Maze to navigate (to avoid running into walls) and eats dots from the Maze. It also handles movement control. The Pacman would continue moving under the recent direction until it hits the walls or a new directional key is pressed. The Pacman does not change directly immediately, but it waits until it arrives at the centers of the "blocks".

Its main functionality can be understood with the following body of its update method. Note the the Pacman maintains its location as an xy co-ordinate, but it communicates with the Maze mostly with row-column positions. Therefore, it has to call maze.xy_to_rc to do the conversion. You can also see that its main logic runs inside the is_at_center if-block.

    def update(self):
        if self.maze.is_at_center(self.x, self.y):
            r, c = self.maze.xy_to_rc(self.x, self.y)

            if self.maze.has_dot_at(r, c):
                self.maze.eat_dot_at(r, c)
            
            if self.maze.is_movable_direction(r, c, self.next_direction):
                self.direction = self.next_direction
            else:
                self.direction = DIR_STILL

        self.x += PACMAN_SPEED * DIR_OFFSET[self.direction][0]
        self.y += PACMAN_SPEED * DIR_OFFSET[self.direction][1]

This game maintains two Pacman's. Since each Pacman's behavior is controlled purely inside each object, having two Pacman is not a very difficult task. (You can even have more Pacman's if you like.)

Maze

Maze (in maze.py) is a class for handling the maze including wall checking, book keeping on dots, and also for displaying the maze in the canvas itself. It uses a lot of Dot's and Wall's sprites.

class Dot(Sprite):
    def __init__(self, app, x, y):
        super().__init__(app, 'images/dot.png', x, y)

        self.is_eaten = False

    def get_eaten(self):
        self.is_eaten = True
        self.hide()


class Wall(Sprite):
    def __init__(self, app, x, y):
        super().__init__(app, 'images/wall.png', x, y)

Notes: If you recall, each Sprite also creates a tk.PhotoImage, with the same photos. You will use the Flyweight pattern to reduce the number of PhotoImage objects needed.

Getting started

This is a two-student work (so that you can also practice git, again). So start by finding an assignment partner. One of the student should use the following template as a starter:

After creating a new repository, the owner of the repository should add another student as a collaborator. This is the same steps as in the previous assignment (see how to add collaborators here).

Dev 1: Observer pattern

Dev 2: Command pattern

Dev 1: Flyweight pattern

Dev 2: State pattern
