This game is to be used for leisure purposes. The user controls a fictional character who happens to be a student at Smith College. The character would have multiple interactions with Smith students, five-college students, professors, staff, etc.. Each time, the game gives the user the choice between two options (eg: to do homework vs party), and that choice will change the rest of the events. We expect different users to make different choices and therefore have various game experiences. Throughout the game, there's a score checker that keeps track of how well the character is doing academically, physically, socially, and emotionally. By the end of the game, the user might get rewards depending on their final performance (eg. a 4.0 GPA, a nomination for a Smith award,..)
The game was developed and compiled using JDK 17, so we would recommend having that installed before accessing our files. For successful installation, make sure all the the files are included and specifically the image files that play a major role in the graphics portion of the game. Once installed, the game could be run through the console by typing in the command: java Game and the game should begin.
This game was developed as part of a final project for CSC151: Introduction to Programming Language Concepts at Smith College taught by Dr. Johanna Brewer. The co-owners of this project are Cyrine Ben Ayed'24 and Jessica Feng'24.
