Section 1
In this section you are required to design flowcharts by making use of DrawIO. Every question should
be separated in a different page and clearly write the question number like in Figure 1. Upload the
saved file (.drawio) on Moodle. Coding is not required for this section.
Figure 1
Task 1 – 15%
Q1. Design a flowchart: In a maths e-learning game, the player is asked a question about the topic
“Surface Area of a Cylinder”.
The player is required to enter the height and radius of a cylinder that its total surface area is greater
than 150cm2. System should automatically calculate the total surface area. If total surface area is
greater than 150cm2, then on the screen display “Winner”. Else display “You lost”. Repeat this entire
process for 6 times. Make use of a loop and show loop counter in flowchart. Hint:
https://www.cuemath.com/measurement/surface-area-of-cylinder/
Q2. Design a flowchart: The game asks the user for a number n and computes the summation of
1…n-1. If the total is smaller than or equal to 100, then print on the screen “You are a winner”. Else
print “You Lost”. Declare a total variable and make use of a loop (with loop counter).
Q3. Player is required to guess a randomly generated number by the system between two values.
Here’s a step-by-step description of the algorithm to play the guessing game:
a) Let min = 1 and max = 15 and system must generate a random number between these values
(number generated should be stored in a variable)
b) Player must guess and enter a number between min and max
c) If the player guesses the correct random number, then display “Correct” and stop
application
d) If the guess is higher than the random number, set max to be one smaller than the guess.
Display “Wrong. Guess the number between min and max”
e) If the guess is lower than the random number, set min to be one larger than the guess.
Display “Wrong. Guess the number between min and max”
f) Go back to step b
Design a flowchart based on the above steps.

Section 2
You have been asked to create a simple escape the prison game. The main objective of the game is
for the player to guess correctly the randomly generated alphabetic passcode to destroy the prison’s
gate and let the prisoner escape. You are required to download the zip file from Moodle called
‘HomeResourcesAssignment.zip’. This zip file contains the basic required resources for this scenario.

Passcode check
F5
Passcode is not correct
V3
Player can click on five different boxes all representing an
alphabetic letter from ‘A’ to ‘Z’ (Section A). When the
player clicks on a box, the next character in sequence
(alphabetical order) is displayed. System should always
start from the character ‘A’. After the sequence reaches
the character ‘Z’, it should start again from ‘A’.
At the beginning of the game the system must generate a
random passcode which should contain only alphabetic
letters (a,b,c,d,e…x,y,z). The passcode’s length (number
of characters) should be a random number between
three and five (both inclusive).
Player can click the ‘Reset’ button (Section D) to clear the
chosen letters in the interactive keypad (Section A). The
letter sequence of every box (Section A) should again
start from the letter ‘A’.
When the player clicks on the ‘Submit’ button (Section E),
the systems checks whether the inputted passcode by the
player matches the random generated passcode at the
beginning of the game.
Follow this sequence:
1. Display ‘Incorrect Passcode’ in Section B; Clear
any text in Section C.

Clear and reset the interactive keypad (Section A)
Display the number of incorrect tries in Section B
If the number of tries is equal to six, then display
“You Lost the Game” in Section B, show correct
passcode in Section C and disable all buttons
(disable the mouse for all buttons).
6. If the number of tries is less than six, then:
a. Display a random passcode hint in
Section C as described in F6
b. Player can try again passcode
The system should display a random hint from the below:
a) The passcode’s length
b) The passcode’s first character
c) The first two characters of the passcode
d) The last character of the passcode
e) The last two characters of the passcode
Please note that these should be dynamically generated
by code.
Follow this sequence:
1. Display ‘Correct Password in Section B; Clear any
text in Section C.
2. Message in Section B must change colour using a
loop.
3. Open gate as described in F8
Gate (Section F) must be opened with an explosion effect
when code is correct. Instantiate and position correctly
the explosion.

Task 3 – 7%
The system is currently showing random hints without checking whether these hints were already
displayed to the user. This means that there’s the possibility that the user sees the same hint more
than once and thus making the game more difficult. By making use of an array, make sure that the
same hint is not displayed twice. Hints must be picked up randomly.
AA2.2

To achieve AA2.2 [7 marks]:
a) Data is correctly stored in array [2 marks]
b) Data is correctly read from array [2 marks]
c) Correct logic is in place to check that same hint is not displayed twice [3 marks]

Task 4 – 5%
Describe in a word document the debugger tool in Roblox Studio. Research on breakpoints, watch
tool and the call stack tool. Show code snippets (screenshots) in relation to the above scenario to
support your arguments.
KU4.2
Show the techniques needed to debug an application
To achieve [5 marks]:
a) Clearly describe breakpoints, watch tool and the call stack tool [2.5 marks]
b) Give proper explanation in relation to the scenario using screenshots [2.5 marks]
Task 5 – 7%
This task requires research.
The below shows all possible features that you can add to your application to make it more
interactive. You must implement either Section A OR Section B. Section B requires more work than
Section A and therefore it has more marks as indicated down below. It is not acceptable to mix
features from Section A and Section B. For Section A you are required to choose and implement two
features found in Table 2. For Section B you are required to implement all listed requirements in
Table 3 and test locally with a minimum of two players.
Table 2
Section A: (Max 3/7 Marks): List of Basic Features (Choose only 2 features – 1.5 marks each):
Feature 1 – A timer is shown in the scene while playing the guessing game.
Feature 2 – When gate is opened, the player can steal items from the prison. Change
visibility/destroy items on interaction.
Feature 3 – The player before reaching the interactive keypad should avoid several traps. These
traps should harm player on touch.
Feature 4 – Speed Boost: In the scene there should be a platform that increases the player’s
movement for a short period of time.
OR
Table 3
Section B: Advanced Feature (Max 7 Marks)
1) Game should be multiplayer with two teams (Hackers Vs Police). Both teams should
spawn from different locations. Modify your map to make it more realistic and fun. Player
can choose a team from a menu before starting the game. [2 marks]
2) The objective of the hacking team is to play the guessing game and release the prisoner in
a time period of 2 minutes. The objective of the police team is to stop the thieves’ team
from doing so. Police avatars should have a tool that creates damage and destroys
opponents upon click. Police team wins if prisoner is not released in time. [3 marks]
3) Timer should be synced and visible for all players. [1 mark]
4) The winning team is displayed on the screen at the end of the game. [1 mark]
