GameBuilder

[ThoseGrapefruits]

Core Problem

Game developers need an easy way to set up their own levels and character-building systems.

Proposed Solution

A base GameBuilder class, which sets up both the PlayerCharacter and the whole of the level they inhabit. This is to be overridden by game developers in their own classes.

GameBuilder

• PlayerCharacter setupPlayerCharacter(Room room)
  • Sets up the PlayerCharacter in the created Room, acquired from setupGame(), completing any configuration necessary on the PlayerCharacter.
• Room setupGame()
  • Sets up the game level, returning the starting Room where the PlayerCharacter will begin.

Future Considerations

Some kind of Level or Map class that holds separate areas (and, ideally, can be individually saved). This is a ways off, and would require a refactor of our entire save system.
