Final Project

Final Project: Bomb Squad

Description: Bomb Squad’s ten minutes out, but this thing’s gonna blow long before they arrive. Looks like they’re gonna have to talk you through this one. Good luck.

Game Objects: A large bomb with several wires takes up the majority of the screen. Square tiles indicating which key to press will appear in the center of the screen (like a HUD).

Sounds: A repeating tick-tock sound will play for the duration of the game. If the player loses, an explosion sound will be played. If the player wins, a “disarm” sound will be played.

Controls: Press the arrow keys in the order that they were displayed.

Game Flow: There’s only one window to this game and it consists of a black/gray background with a large bomb filling most of the window. A series of keys will be presented one after the other in the center of the screen. After the whole series has been displayed, the player must press the keys on the keyboard in the order that they were shown. There will be a finite number of rounds. The number of keys in the series will increase after every few rounds. If a wrong key is pressed, the bomb explodes immediately and the game is over. If after beta testing the game is too easy, perhaps some rounds will feature “flipped controls” — the player must press the opposite key of what was shown in the series.

Levels: There is one level that gets more and more challenging and the game progresses.
