Day 1: Introduction

Day 1 Objectives:

  • Create a Repl.it account

  • Create a file and name it “Text Adventure Game - *insert your name*”

  • Create and run basic commands in python

  • Brainstorm ideas for your text adventure game

First things first, we need somewhere to write and run our code. Follow the steps below in order to set up your code editor. That way, we can start our Text Adventure Game.

Setting up your code editor

In order to make it easy for us to view your code in real time and for you to get to coding asap, we will be using an online code editor called Replit.

Create a Replit account

First, let's create a Replit account. Go to www.replit.com and click sign up. Either use your Google account to sign up or use your email. Make sure to create a username and password you will remember. You may need to verify your email in your inbox to use Replit.

Create your first project

To create a new file where you will write your code, select "+ New Repl" in the top left corner of the website. In the languages section select "Python". It will have a blue and yellow icon next to it. Next, choose a name for your new project.

Name your project: “Text Adventure Game - *insert your name*”
