Install instructions

Prerequisites:

You must first have Python installed on your machine. This game requires Python version 3.6 or later. If Python is not yet installed on your computer, you can download it from the official Python website: https://www.python.org/downloads/.

Step 1: Install Python

1. Visit https://www.python.org/downloads/ and download the latest version of Python (make sure it's version 3.6 or higher).
2. Run the downloaded installer. During the installation process, ensure to select the option "Add Python 3.x to PATH" to make Python accessible from the command line.
3. After installation, open your command line interface (Command Prompt for Windows, Terminal for macOS and Linux) and type `python --version` to check the installation. You should see the installed Python version displayed.

Step 2: Install Pygame Zero

Pygame Zero (pgzero) is a simplified game development library aimed at beginners and educational environments. It makes creating games with Python much easier, which is ideal for our game, Endless Runner.

Install Pygame Zero by executing the following command in your command line:

pip install pgzero

This command utilizes pip, the package installer for Python, to fetch and install the Pygame Zero library from the Python Package Index (PyPI).

Step 3: Download Endless Runner

Now that you have Python and Pygame Zero ready, the next step is to download the Endless Runner game files.

1. Obtain the Endless Runner game files from the provided download link. (Note: Add the actual link or instructions here based on your distribution method.)
2. Extract the files from the downloaded ZIP archive to a directory of your choice. This directory will now contain all necessary files to run Endless Runner.

Step 4: Launch the Game

To start Endless Runner, open your command line and change the directory to where you've extracted the game files. You can do this with the `cd` command, followed by the path to your game directory. For instance:

cd path/to/endless_runner

Within the game's directory, start Endless Runner by executing:

pgzrun main.py

Here, `main.py` refers to the primary script file for Endless Runner, and `pgzrun` is a command from Pygame Zero to execute Pygame Zero games.

The game should then work and you have fun running through the caves.
