Game Overview

• Party-Boy Chad is a fifth year senior at Duke.
  Having spent the past four years facing rejection
  by women his own age, he has decided this year,
  to focus solely on freshmen girls. Chad must find
  freshmen girls while avoiding anyone older than
  eighteen and everyone male. Above all he must
  beware the Resident Coordinator, Leslie Valley,
  who looks young but in reality will break up his
  party. Chad will be awaiting the freshmen at the
  West Campus bus stop, where he is flyering for
  his party. Chad gets 1 point for every freshman
  girl he intercepts, -2 for older girls, -5 for
  guys, and game over for Leslie Valley. If Chad
  can get 30 points within 1 minute, he will throw
  a successful party! Congrats Chad.

Sprites

• Party-Boy Chad

• Older Girls
• Guys
• Leslie Valley
• Walls

Trackers

• We will need trackers for
• Freshman Girls
• Older Girls
• Guys
• Leslie Valley

Collisions

• Upon colliding with Party-Boy Chad or the
  fraternity (the wall at the far end of the
  screen), the freshman girls, older girls, and
  guys will disappear. Leslie Valley, however, will
  make Party-Boy Chad disappear.
• Collisions will also affect the score.

Score

• Score will be changed when Party-Boy Chad
  collides with other sprites
  
• Add 1 point for freshman girls
• Subtract 2 points for older girls
• Subtract 5 points for guys

Game Conclusion

• The game can end three ways
• If Party-Boy Chad gets 30 points before the time
  ends, he succeeds in throwing his party
  
• If Party-Boy Chad fails to get 30 points before
  the time ends, his party is a failure
  
• If Party-Boy Chad collides with Leslie Valley at
  any point, she reprimands him and does not allow
  him to throw his party
