It's my first game, so please have mercy.:) I'd like to know what can I improve in terms of:
- the structure of the code
- the performance (currently around 25fps on my machine)
- the design pattern I could potentially use here
- the overall file split and names (I'm sure my_functions, my_classes and my_constants aren't the industry standard)
Bugs and flaws:
- LEVEL UP BUG: pause the game and wait till fraction of the second before next level up, unpause, the level goes up, pause again, etc. this way one can level up without playing, since level is determined on the time bases (every 10 sec lvl up)
- change lists iteration to group iteration when drawing sprites etc.
Bad design practices:
- from "moduleName" import * (can cause trouble, and considered a bad practice)
- cluttered functions that perhaps could be simpler, and some of them could be class methods
TODO:
- implement more modes and make it a list. then access by "if item not in modes execute ..code".
- ability to shoot enemies
- smoke from the exhaust while accelerating
