So this is my very first time in this site. I have written this very basic Python code with PyQt5 to create a Memory Game. As I am not very familiar with OOP (but I'm trying to be!), I hope somebody could point me to where I could improve my game.
As it stands, the whole thing is working but it lacks of a pretty template (this is something I am going to improve in a second phase). What I am more interested in right now is to understand if my code could be better organized somehow (e.g. by splitting it into different classes/subclasses, instead of the many methods present).
The game works like this:
- the user chooses a folder of (JPG) images;
- a grid with all the images is formed, but each image is covered by the "back.jpg" image (it should stay in the same folder as the code)
- the game starts
Basically I am kind of doing everything using images in a Qgridlayout, which are put in buttons with event listeners. When an "onclick" signal is emitted, the self.status attribute is analyzed and the game is restarted or goes on according to that.
One last thing: the cards (images) are not shuffled right now, I still need to implement this feature (otherwise the game would be completely boring...).
