PROCESS

Development Process:
Choosing Technologies
The development team opted for Python due to its
versatility and ease of use, making it suitable for both
backend logic and game mechanics. Pygame, a library for
creating games in Python, provided essential functionalities
for graphics rendering, user input handling, and game loop
management. Additionally, HTML was used for creating the
game's interface and displaying information.
Designing Game Mechanics:
The game mechanics were designed to simulate the
evolutionary journey of humans in an engaging and
educational manner. Players navigate through different
epochs, facing challenges and making decisions that
influence their species' survival and advancement.
Implementing Graphics and User Interface:
Pygame facilitated the creation of visually appealing
graphics, including landscapes, characters, and
