# Building Chrome's Dinosaur Game with Python and Pygame
## Prerequisites
### Required Software
- Python 3.x (Download from [python.org](https://python.org](https://www.python.org/downloads/)))
- pip (Python package installer, comes with Python)
- Code editor of your choice (VS Code recommended)
- Git installed and set up (Optional) (Download from [Git](https://python.org](https://www.python.org/downloads/](https://git-scm.com/downloads))))
## Setting Up Your Development Environment
Navigate to your projects directory
### Clone the Starter Repository
```bash
git clone https://github.com/ondiekelijah/gdg-on-campus.git dino-game-project
```
### Navigate into the folder
```bash
cd dino-game-project
```
All commands and project files mentioned in this guide should be executed/created inside this folder. Once inside the folder, you can open your terminal (Command Prompt on Windows or Terminal on Mac/Linux) and proceed with the next steps.
### Creating a Virtual Environment
```bash
# Windows
python -m venv dino-game-env
# Linux/Mac
python3 -m venv dino-game-env
```
### Why Virtual Environments are Important
Virtual environments are crucial for Python development because they:
1. Keep project dependencies isolated from other projects
2. Prevent conflicts between different package versions
3. Make your project more portable and easier to share
4. Allow you to maintain a clean and organized development environment
### Activating the Virtual Environment
```bash
# Windows
source dino-game-env/Scripts/activate
# Linux/Mac
source dino-game-env/bin/activate
```
### Installing Required Packages
```bash
pip install pygame
```
## Project Structure
Create a new directory for your project with the following structure:
```
dino-game/
├── dino-game-env
├── main.py
├── README.md
└── requirements.txt
```
### Creating Requirements File
```bash
pip freeze > requirements.txt
```
## Starting the Script
```bash
# Make sure your virtual environment is activated
python main.py
```
