Task Ticket - Implementing Scoring System Functionality

[adrienerice]

Description

Task: Implementing Scoring System Functionality
Feature: Scoring System Feature Ticket

Writing the code for and implementing the functions that return points when the player kills an enemy or picks up coins, points will increase with each successful kill/coin collection the player makes, and will display the total points earned on the main game screen, and on the game over screen as a final score.

Examples:

• Coin Collection: When the player runs towards/over a coin in the game, the player will receive +10 points, and will be displayed on the screen so the player can keep track of how many points they have earned in their game run.
• Final Score: When the player finishes the game, either by winning or losing, a final score will be displayed on the appropriate screen, giving the player their final score of all accumulated points earned in that particular game run.

Dependencies

• Dependency 1: (Player Interaction (Sprint 3) #70 ) -- Coins must be implemented and functioning in game for the point collection function to work with the coins.
• Dependency 2: Enemies (Enemies  #7) -- Enemies must be implemented and able to be killed in the game for the point collection function to work with defeating enemies.
