Here is my TripleX game from the Unreal class. The premise is that you are a mad scientist creating Dinosaurs by combining the correct sequences of DNA.
I added lives by incorporating Tries (I learned this from @michaelofearth Triple X Game - Modified with 4 lives) but I modified what he did slightly because I wanted different responses with different ASCII graphics for each failed guess.
There are also different responses for each level if the player guesses correctly. Each response to the player’s guess has its own individual ASCII graphic.
All ASCII art came from https://www.asciiart.eu/.
This is my first ever attempt at coding so if something could have been done more easily, please let me know! I was totally improvising and somehow, after much trial and error, it worked!
