Dinosaur Game

The Dinosaur Game is an infinite runner, where the goal is to run for as long as possible. Obstacles - cacti and birds - appear as you run and progressively get faster. The player can duck and jump to avoid them.

All code is held in the DinosaurGame.py file. When the main() function is executed, all assets are loaded before the main game loop runs. During this time, the program checks if the data folder exists and if the score.txt file exists. If either does not exist, it will create the directory or file. The score.txt file is necessary to save the player's high score after the game is closed.

For each group of assets - dinosaur, ground, obstacles, and clouds - there are functions to create, move, and delete them.

On startup, the very first game has a special animation at the beginning, to emulate what happens on the Google Chrome version.
