The Color Sleuth Project is an extension of the Color Sleuth app that was created in Lesson 10: Building an App: Color Sleuth from the Event Driven Apps in AppLab unit.
At the end of Lesson 10: Building an App: Color Sleuth you made a Color Sleuth app that allowed two users to play a head-to-head game where they competed in trying to guess the one color that was different from the other three colors.
For this project extension you will add new coding structures to create a new and better version of the original Color Sleuth app. What coding structures you add is up to you but your additions must improve the app in some way.
This project extension is usually completed as a mini-project (rather than a full project) which means that we don't do a formal programming journal nor do we complete any peer evaluations as part of the project. You just submit a final draft when you are finished.
Login to Code.org
Navigate to the appropriate lesson from the Event Driven Apps in AppLab in order to find your starter file from Lesson 7.
There are are two buttons at the top of your GameLab project window: SHARE and REMIX.
Select the REMIX button. This will make a new copy of your project and add it to your list of projects in Code.org.
On the top menu bar of your REMIXED project, click on the RENAME option and rename your file using the following naming convention:
ProjectName Version Semester LastName, First Name
Here are the details for this project:
ProjectName = Color Sleuth Project
Version = V.2.0.0
Semester = F22 (for Fall 2022. If it is not longer Fall of 2022, make the appropriate change (F22, F23, etc.) to the code for your semester.)
LastName = [yourlastname]
FirstName = [yourfirstname]
If I was naming this project for myself, it would look like this:
ColorSleuth V.2.0.0 F22 Cross, John
Your name should look exactly like mine except it should have YOUR name at the end (not my name).
Now you are ready to continue the rest of your build.
Be sure you include multiline comments at the begging of your code that include the following:
Name
Date
Semester (F22, S23, etc.)
And a description of the new elements you incorporated into your project extension.
Review the project requirements and make sure you have all the necessary elements for your submission:
Is everything working properly?
Does the new coding structure(s) you added to the game make an obvious improvement from the original?
Make sure you are aware of the DUE DATES and DEADLINES for your final submission. All DUE DATE and DEADLINE information will be posted in the Daily Class Announcements.
Use the Class Projects: Submission Forms page to submit your final project.
