Game Systems
The project included a custom Pygame renderer, gesture recognition, collision detection, and algorithmic AI. These systems had to work together in real time while remaining manageable within the limited development window.
Collaboration
Git was used for remote collaboration, allowing both developers to work on the project simultaneously and merge changes efficiently.
Web Build
The game was published as a web build using Pygbag, allowing the Python/Pygame project to run through WebAssembly in a browser.
What I Learned
The biggest lesson was learning to prioritize. A hackathon forces rapid decisions about architecture, scope, debugging, and which features are actually worth implementing.
