Dynamic Obstacles: Cars, rivers, and other hazards
Scoring System: Track progress and high scores
Graphics: Custom sprites and animations

Technical Implementation

This project demonstrates:

Object-Oriented Design: Classes for characters, obstacles, and game logic
Game Loop: Handling updates and rendering
Collision Detection: Determining when the player hits obstacles
Event Handling: Responding to player input

Learning Outcomes

Building this game reinforced fundamental programming concepts including inheritance, polymorphism, and event-driven programming. It also provided hands-on experience with game development patterns.
