Directions:

In this semester's CS102 Programming Contest you will spice up your Whack-a-Mole game.

  1. Be sure that your Lab 6 game works. If it doesn't work, doing the rest of these steps won't help any, so you should go back and fix it first.

  2. If you want to go for prizes and glory, you should add new features to your game that will impress the judges. Be creative! (Free images and sounds can be found on the web.
