# FlappyBird Java Game
FlappyBird is a simple 2D arcade game built using Java and Swing. The game involves a bird that needs to navigate through a series of pipes without crashing into them. The goal is to score as many points as possible by passing through the gaps between the pipes.
## Features
- **2D Graphics**: Includes custom images for the bird, pipes, and background.
- **Realistic Physics**: Gravity and velocity are applied to the bird for a more realistic gameplay experience.
- **Collision Detection**: Detects when the bird collides with a pipe or the ground, ending the game.
- **Scoring System**: Tracks the score based on how many pipes the bird successfully passes.
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
- Java Development Kit (JDK) installed (version 8 or later).
- An Integrated Development Environment (IDE) like Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA, or you can run it from the command line.
### Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/IT21826740/Flappy-Bird.git
cd Flappy-Bird
```
2. Compile the Java files:
```bash
javac FlappyBird.java
```
3. Run the game:
```bash
java FlappyBird
```
### Running the Game
- Use the `SPACEBAR` to make the bird fly upward.
- Avoid the pipes to keep playing and increase your score.
- The game ends when the bird hits a pipe or the ground.
- Press `SPACEBAR` after a game over to restart the game.
## Project Structure
- **FlappyBird.java**: The main file that contains the game logic, including the bird's movement, pipe placement, collision detection, and game rendering.
- **Images**: The images used for the bird, pipes, and background.
