Catastrophe, like many things in my life, was inspired by my pets. I've created Catastrophe using Python. I utilized my knowledge of if statements to navigate the player through choices that determine the outcome of the game. The actual combat logic uses a while loop to determine if the enemy's health is below 0 that you'll win the game and break the loop. If you do not make the right choices in the game, it will lead to an instant death.
First, you'll want to download Python here. Follow the installation prompts and instal the latest version of Python. You'll also want the Python extension in VS Code.
If you're using VS Code, you should see a play button on the top left corner of your window. You may have to press this twice to get the game going.
