About This Project
I designed and programmed this collection game on MIT's Scratch platform for Harvard's CS50 computer science course. As Thomas Edison, you do everything in your power to destroy your greatest rival, Nikola Tesla, stealing and profiting from his ideas, sullying his reputation, and occasionally regaining some goodwill through your own original work and showmanship. The challenge is to avoid a total loss of integrity.
The events within the game engine are triggered by a wide array of loops, conditionals, operators, events, variables, and key activations. It features several levels of increasing difficulty, the ability to restart from a graphic interface and experience new variations of actions, and gameplay and credits menus with navigation.
