The +.py files are the levels that we did ourselves. To make new levels, you +need to make a new .py file in the current directory (bubbob/levels/). + +For an example, open CompactLevels.py with any text editor. The +structure should be fairly simple to understand even without knowledge +about Python. (Just don't try to look at RandomLevels.py first: it is a +full Python program that generates the levels completely randomly.) + +To get started, copy CompactLevels.py to a new name, like MyLevels.py, +and start editing it. You can remove or change levels, but the last one +should always be called LevelFinal and have no monster in it. All other +levels should have monsters, otherwise they'll be considered as the +final level. + +Also note that all levels need to have the same size (width and height), +but different level sets can have different sizes. For example, the +levels in CompactLevels.py are a bit smaller than the ones in the .bin +files, and the levels in scratch.py are a bit larger. |
