Spider Smash is a basic game written in Python using the Pygame library. This project is primarily an introduction to Pygame where I tested and learned a lot of things, rather than a finished and polished project. The game itself is relatively simple and quickly becomes boring because it doesn't really present a real challenge. Some parts, like the game over screen for example, haven't been added because I didn't see anything interesting to learn from it. All graphics and audio assets are completely royalty-free and come from websites such as itch.io or opengameart.org. You can use this project as you wish and reuse any part of the code as you please.
The player follows and shoots in the direction of the mouse. To shoot, press space, to sprint use the right mouse click.
For anyone interested passing by, I've compiled an executable to make testing the 'game' easy. I used PyInstaller for this, and despite compiling it for my system, the Jiangmin antivirus still shows a false positive. Additionally, on VirusTotal, Jiangmin is the only detection out of 71 antivirus engines. So, if you can trust a random guy enough and want to avoid installing the necessary modules, the executable is available at the link below 😙
