1. Video game level generator for 2D platforming

game : 
Introduction
Video game level generator is a generative system that automatically designs levels for a skill
based video game. The name of our game is THE HUNGRY DEAD. The Hungry Dead is a 2D
platforming game and game creation system which allows the user to play, create and share
different levels of the game online in the style of our game. The game is setup in the wilderness
of forest where zombies have taken over. Players must use their skills to navigate through the
forest, avoiding obstacles and running from the zombies, while discovering new weapons and
powerups. The game features a main ‘Character’ with his unique abilities and personalities who
uses his skills to run from the zombies and win the levels.
The user can also create his own customized levels by adding his own obstacles and power-ups.
A collection of game blocks will be provided to the player to choose from when building their
level. After a created course is completed, it is then allowed to be shared to others. Here, all
players can browse and play various user-generated courses.
Problem Statement
Explain in details

2. Objective and Scope: 

The hungry dead platform game can serve multiple purposes and meet various needs for both
game developers and players. It uses the pygame library in the python development environment.
The objective of the project is:

 Entertainment: The primary reason for creating a The hungry dead platform game is to
provide players with a fun and engaging experience. Players can enjoy the challenge of
navigating through levels filled with obstacles and zombies while collecting weapons and
power-ups.
 Skill development: The hungry dead platform game can help players develop various
skills, such as hand-eye coordination, reflexes, problem-solving, strategic thinking and
user creativity . These skills can be valuable in both gaming and real-life situations.

 Education: The hungry dead can help users to create their own difficulty level and set
their own obstacles according to our game style. This will help the user in enhancing their
creativity
 Stress buster:- Our game will be act as a stress buster for all our users as it will provide
them a platform to show their creativity as well as they can play the game.

Scope of The project

The scope of the project is to develop a 2-dimensional Platforming game using pygame library.

4. Project Schedule Plan: 
The objective of Software Planning is to provide a framework that enables the manager to make
reasonable estimates of resources, cost, and schedule. These estimates are made within a limited
time frame at the beginning of a software project and should be updated regularly as the project
progresses. In addition, estimates should attempt to define best case and worst case scenarios so
that project outcomes can be bounded.

A Gantt chart is a popular type of chart that illustrates a project schedule. Gantt Chart illustrates
the start and finish dates of the terminal elements and summary elements of a project. Terminal
element and summary comprise the work breakdown structure of the project.
