Match-It

A Python puzzle game where players swap objects on a grid to form matching rows or columns. Features progressively larger grids across levels and a score system that rewards fewer moves.

How to Play

1. Run the game by executing the Python script (MATCH_IT.py) located in the game folder.

   • Do not run the script directly; run it from the folder to ensure proper loading of background images.

2. Click on the "PLAY!" button to start the game.

3. In each level, you'll see a grid filled with random objects (A, B, C, D, E, F).

4. Click on an object to select it, then choose a direction (up, down, left, or right) to move the selected object.

5. The goal is to create rows or columns with identical objects.

6. Keep an eye on your moves and score:

   • Moves: The number of moves you've made.
   • Score: Your current score, calculated based on the initial score minus the number of moves.
   • Level: Indicates the current level you are playing.

7. Complete levels to progress through the game. The grid size will increase, making the game more challenging.

8. Be strategic and try to maximize your score by making fewer moves.

9. The game ends when you successfully complete all levels or when your score drops below zero.

Controls

• Use the mouse to click on objects and select them.
• When prompted, enter the direction (up, down, left, or right) to move the selected object.

Important Note

• Run the game script from the game folder to ensure proper loading of background images.
