PyWeek 27: Breakout Blue


"Breakout Blue" was our (Team Chimera) team entry for PyWeek 27 (April 2019), a twice yearly video game development competition that gets competitors to build a complete game from scratch in seven days using the python programming language. This competition's theme was "six", and we made a game in which you control six inmates trying to work together to perform a prison escape.


I teamed up with Lucid Design Art, the other half of Team Chimera: it was our first collaboration in about two years, and it went well. I worked on game programming, music and sound, and Lucid worked on game design and artwork. The game involved a combination of puzzle elements and a little bit of stealth, and turned out well. We placed second in the team entries and tied for second overall with a score of 4.13/5.0 so we were pretty pleased with the result.

You can download and play the game from source (requires python (2 or 3) and pygame installed).
