This is the Python clone for 2048.
Note
The project is not production ready, but is functional. Some functions are not yet ready.
Important
If you are not on Windows, or get an error related to the DIRECTORY, you might need to redirect the DIRECTORY.
In __main__.py go to the constants section and change the first part of DIRECTORY.
Important
If you get an error related to tables in sqlite3, go to ✨, and then 📂. Then close the app. After which you may delete the database called 2048.db. This will erase all old data, but will fix the bug.
This ussually happens due to version change.
Tip
If you find a bug, you may create an issue.
The help button [❔], is not ready. It should show How To Play instructions.
The undo button [🔙], is not ready. It will go back one move.
The hint button [💡], is not ready. It will show a suggested move.
The settings button [⚙️], is not ready. It will show a settings page.
The open folder [📂], is not ready for non-windows. It opens the data folder in file explorer.
The sliding animation, is not ready.
The original 2048 was made by Gabriele Cirulli in JavaScript and CSS. If you want to play the actual game: play2048.co.
I am attempting to make the same game in Python.
If you have never played 2048 before here is the rules of 2048:
You start with either pressing
space baror the PLAY button.
You have a 4x4 grid, in which there 2 blocks in the start, you have 90% chance of haing an 2, while 10% chance of having an 4 in the start.
You can either play UP, DOWN, LEFT, or RIGHT. Each of them will result all the blocks sliding in that direction. And the blocks having the same numbers will merge, making a block that is the sum of the merged blocks.
You win when you reach 2048.
The game ends when you have no empty spaces left and also no moves left.
You may even press the END button, or
escto clear the game, and save your score.
This requires Python 3.10+, atleast that's what I think.
This also requires all the needed modules, for which you need to do
pip install -r requirements.txt
This will install all needed modules and libraries, see required modules for more information.
Tip
You might even edit some things in the code to change the working flow of the code. Like the directory where the database is saved, or the color of the background, etc.
Warning
Some things may break when tampered with. Please edit the code with caution.
On Windows you can install the executable from releases. The executable is only compatible with Windows currently.
Caution
It is quite slow because it is made with PyInstaller. If you have any suggestions, put them in this discussion.
Your score is locally saved along with the time and the highest number you reached. You may even enter your name, which is optional.
Note
No other information is used, stored, or sent to us.
The font used is from JetBrainsMono. I have peronally used JetBrains Mono Medium, which is available in the repository. You can change the font in the constants section.
customtkinter - pip install customtkinter
pillow (PIL) - pip install pillow
CTkTable - pip install CTkTable
pywinstyles - pip install pywinstyles
comment-out pywinstyles in requirements.txt,
Note
This will result in opaque and broken, winning and losing screen. If you have any suggestion to fix this on non-Windows computers, please suggest in this discussion.
