Exercise 4: Fight Club
1 Exercise 4: Fight Club
The first rule of this exercise is, do not talk about this exercise. Implement a round and text-based fighter game. In this game, you can create fighters and let them fight against each other.
1.1 Description of a fight
The fight system works as follows: Each fighter has
- lifepoints (in the beginning 100 points),
- offense points (a random number between 25 and 50),
- defense points (a random number between 25 and 50).
When a fighter attacks another one, a random number x between 0 and the fighter’s offense points is used as hitpoints. The other fighter is then attacked with x hitpoints, meaning that his lifepoints are reduced by x. If the lifepoints of the attacked fighter reach 0, the fighter dies instantly without a chance for a
- counterattack. Otherwise, he can return his hitpoints that is a random number y between 0 and the
attacked fighter’s defense points. These hitpoints should be reduced from the attacker’s life points. A dead fighter cannot attack anyone anymore. The following pseudo code shows the initialization of a fighter. class Fighter int offensePoints int defensePoints int lifepoints constructor
- ffensePoints = random(25 to 50)
defensePoints = random(25 to 50) lifepoints = 100
1.2 Fighters
There should be different kinds of fighters (hint: use inheritance). They should have special offense
- r defense (or both) abilities. You should implement at least 4 fighter types.
These fighter types are
- Warrior. The warrior is a brave fighter that sometimes can attack very strongly (one by six
chance of double hitpoints).
- Ninja: Ninjas move very fast, hence they can escape attacks sometimes but still launch a
counterattack (one by six chance that an attack does not cause any damage). You should implement 2 further fighter types. Invent some yourself and be creative. Some suggestions for fighters:
- Mage (when attacking he drinks some special potion that lets him add spell points to an
attack)
- Cursed (turns into zombie after dead)
- ChuckNorris (possibility of an instantly deadly roundhouse kick)
