This OOP project is a role-playing game designed and implemented using Java with JSON-based persistence for user authentication and account management. The architecture follows object-oriented principles to create an immersive gaming experience with multiple interface options.
- Dual Interface Architecture: Implemented parallel user interface systems allowing players to select between a Graphical User Interface (GUI) or Command Line Interface (CLI) based on preference or system requirements.
- Dynamic Map Generation System: Developed an algorithm for procedural map generation, creating unique gameplay experiences with each session while maintaining game balance.
- Persistence Layer: Engineered a JSON-based data storage system for account management, allowing secure authentication and maintaining player progress between sessions.
- Cell-based Progression System: Designed a state-driven narrative system where each map cell presents unique storyline elements and challenges as the player advances.
- Primary Language: Java
- Data Serialization: JSON
- Development Environment: IntelliJ IDEA
- Architecture Pattern: Object-oriented design with MVC principles
Players progress through a cell-based map infrastructure with the objective of locating the final destination cell. Each navigational decision affects potential encounters and narrative progression.
The implementation includes a comprehensive combat system with:
- Dynamic enemy scaling based on player progression
- Damage calculation algorithms accounting for player stats and equipment
- Level progression system with performance-based experience allocation
- In-game currency (gold) acquisition through completed objectives
- Transaction system for purchasing consumables from in-game merchants
- Resource management requiring strategic decision-making
The project is structured for IntelliJ IDEA. To execute the application:
- Install IntelliJ IDEA from the official installation guide
- Import the project maintaining the existing directory structure
- Configure the appropriate JDK
- Execute the main class to initiate the game

Defeat adversaries, advance through the level system to increase combat proficiency, accumulate currency, purchase consumable resources from merchants, and achieve victory conditions by reaching the final destination.
