Egg Toss Game

A simple egg toss platformer game implemented in Pyret, inspired by classic vertical jumper mechanics. The player controls an egg that jumps across moving platforms and attempts to reach the top without falling off-screen.

🎮 Game Features

• Dynamic moving platforms with velocity reversal at screen bounds
• Egg jumping mechanics with gravity and airborne detection
• Platform collision and fall detection
• Score tracking and lives system
• Auto-scrolling level transition with new platform generation
• Game over state with reset functionality

🧠 How It Works

• Platforms (top, middle, bottom) move horizontally and reverse at edges.
• Egg jumps when spacebar is pressed (only if it's on a platform).
• Collision Detection triggers landing and score updates.
• Lives are reduced when the egg falls out of bounds.
• Game transitions to the next level by scrolling new platforms in from above.

⚙️ Constants (Customizable Settings)

You can adjust these constants in main.arr to modify gameplay difficulty, behavior, and visuals.

Screen Settings

Constant	Default	Description
SCREEN-WIDTH	300	Width of the canvas
SCREEN-HEIGHT	500	Height of the canvas
SCREEN-TRANSITION-SPEED	3	Scroll speed when transitioning between levels
FPS	60	Updates per second (higher = smoother gameplay)

Platform Settings

Constant	Default	Description
PLATFORM-WIDTH	70	Width of each platform (wider = easier landings)
PLATFORM-HEIGHT	13	Height of each platform (visual only)
PLATFORM-COLOR	"brown"	Fill color of platforms
PLATFORM-VELOCITY-LIMIT	9	Max platform movement speed (higher = harder)
PLATFORM-DISTANCE	150	Vertical spacing between platforms

Platform Y-Coordinates

Constant	Default	Description
TOP-PLATFORM-Y	SCREEN-HEIGHT / 4	Y-position of the top platform
MID-PLATFORM-Y	TOP + 150	Y-position of the middle platform
BOT-PLATFORM-Y	MID + 150	Y-position of the bottom platform

Egg Settings

Constant	Default	Description
EGG-RADIUS	20	Radius of the egg (larger = easier collisions)
EGG-COLOR	"blanched-almond"	Fill color of the egg
EGG-JUMP-HEIGHT	-20	Initial jump velocity (more negative = higher)
EGG-AY	0.9	Gravity acceleration (higher = faster fall)
EGG-INITIAL-X	100	Egg's initial horizontal position

Platform Movement Bounds

Constant	Default	Description
SCREEN-WIDTH-PLATFORM-LIMIT	SCREEN-WIDTH - PLATFORM-WIDTH	Prevents platforms from going off the screen
