Abstract
In this chapter, you will make the Painter game more interesting by giving the player a limited number of lives. If players miss too many paint cans, the game is over. The chapter discusses how to deal with that and how to display the current number of lives to the player. In order to do the latter, you will learn a few programming constructs for repeating a group of instructions several times.
