Packman

Much like the classic arcade game of a similar name, this game brings a fun way to help maintain pace and increase distance. The object of the game is to collect as many dots as possible before being eaten by a ghost or before quitting the activity. If your current speed slows down too much for longer than 5 seconds, the ghost will take a life. You have a total of 3 lives before losing the game.

Future features

  • surprise ghosts
    • when enabled, a ghost will randomly appear in front of you and you must turn around and run in the opposite direction to escape the ghost.
  • bonus mode
    • after collecting X dots, you will have the ability to enter "bonus mode" which gives you the opportunity to chase the ghosts. If you maintain a faster speed for X number of seconds then you will have "caught" the ghost and will be awarded X number of bonus dots.
  • Chasing ghost increases speed
    • when enabled, the chasing ghost will randomly increase its speed causing you to increase your speed in order to avoid being caught for X number of seconds.

Development

Download and install the Garmin Connect IQ SDK if you haven't already. Edit the CONNECT_IQ_SDK_DIR in build.py to point to the SDK's installation directory. Start up the simulator. Then, run build.py -d <device name>. For example, for the Forerunner 920xt

$ build.py -d fr920xt

This will build the binaries and place them in the bin/ directory then push them to the simulator where you should see the main game screen.

Run build.py -h for help and other available options.

Changelog

  • v0.2 - Tested on some hardware

    • Add checks for the Attention tones and vibrations
    • Hardware devices do not currently support ActivityRecording so the session recording has been commented out.
    • There is a bug with setting a variable to one of the Attention tone enums, so the enums are used directly.
  • v0.1 - Initial Release

    • Basic app setup. Simple game logic.
