Studio Game Demo App

I made this app following along with The Pragmatic Studio's Ruby course.

Install the gem

I published the gem for this app on RubyGems.org.

In order to install it, run

gem install studio_game_dylan_attal-1.0.0.gem

Run the app

In order to run the app run the following command

studio_game

Summary

This is a console app that simulates a game.

Players are loaded from the players.csv file be default. Each player has a name and a starting health value, i.e.:

Larry,100

If the user wants, they can provide a different CSV file to load the players. For example, I've provided a file my_favorite_players.csv as an alternate list of players. The user should provide the file like so

studio_game bin/my_favorite_players.csv

Before the game is played, the user gets to decide how many rounds to play. At this point, the user can also terminate the program by typing in quit or exit:

How many game rounds? ('quit to exit')

Once the user provides the number of rounds, the game is played automatically. The user then sees

1. Which players are involved

There are 5 players in Knuckleheads:
I'm Boba with a health = 100, points = 0, and score = 100.
I'm Jango with a health = 90, points = 0, and score = 90.
I'm Din with a health = 80, points = 0, and score = 80.
I'm Klutz with a health = 105, points = 0, and score = 105.
I'm Berserker with a health = 50, points = 0, and score = 50.

2. Which treasures there are to find

There are 6 treasures to be found:
A pie is worth 5
A bottle is worth 25
A hammer is worth 50
A skillet is worth 100
A broomstick is worth 200
A crowbar is worth 400

Rules of the game

Each round, each player rolls the die.

If a player rolls between 1 and 2, then they are blammed, meaning they lose 10 health.

If a player rolls between 3 and 4, then they are skipped, meaning they do not gain or lose points that turn.

If a player rolls between 5 and 6, then they are w00ted, meaning they gain 15 health.

Each round, players can find treasure worth different points. Treasures are found randomly.

Every game, there are two special players added:

1. ClumsyPlayer: this player's treasure points are cut in half.
2. BerserkPlayer: once this player is w00ted five times, it cannot be blammed in that game anymore—if this player rolls between 1 and 2, they are w00ted instead of blammed.
