3 Ball Shooting

When mouse button is pressed (1 mark), ball shoots towards mouse (2 marks).

3 2Ball aiming constraints

Shooter can only be aimed within the 120 degree range pointing toward the bottom of the screen (2 marks).

If the shooter is aimed outside of this range, it clamps to the edge of the range and shoots at the clamped angle (1 mark).

1 Ball movement

Ball follows a ballistic trajectory, i.e. like a ball thrown through the air (1 mark).

1 Ball collisions Balls collide with the buckets and the environment/side of the screen (1 mark).

5

Peg collision

Pegs disappear after a collision with a ball (2 marks). 

Pegs that have collided with a ball only disappear once the ball has come to rest in a bucket (i.e. at the end of a "turn") (1.5 marks). Pegs that have collided with a ball visually show that they have been hit and can still be collided with, until the turn is over (1 mark), or if 3 seconds have elapsed since it has been hit (0.5 marks; to prevent the ball getting stuck in the level and never reaching the bucket).

2 Next turn

The next ball can be shot only once the previous ball has come to rest in a bucket (1 mark; +1 mark for detecting ball is at rest for a short period of time, and doesn't incorrectly trigger when at velocity is low at the "top"/peak of a bounce).

(Note: Removed the requirement in this item about "5 seconds")

2 Ammo

The player should start each level with 5 balls (1 mark). Each shot should reduce the ball count by one (1 mark).

3  Level completion / game over The level ends in two ways: when the player has run out of balls (and some of the pegs remain) (1 mark), and when all the pegs have been destroyed (2 marks).
4 Scoring

The final score for a level is calculated and displayed correctly:

  • the sum of destroyed pegs (1 mark); plus
  • the sum of the value of the buckets each ball is resting in at the end of the level (2 marks); plus
  • any bonus awarded for a level.

2 Lindslay-Mode Pressing L teleports the current ball to the current mouse position (1 mark). Ball velocity is reset (1 mark).
3 Sound Effects

2 In-game UI The amount of balls remaining is visually shown with either a number (1 mark) OR with a number of UI sprites (2 marks).
