Thinking Green

Thinking Green is an environmentally-friendly puzzle game written using Python and Pygame. See below for installation instructions.

• Score points by neutralizing hazards.
• Chain up recycles in front of receptors to get extra combo points!
• Survive for as long as possible.

To run Thinking Green, you only need two things:

• Python (any decently modern version should work)
• Pygame

If you have the uv package manager (recommended!), you can easily install a local version of Pygame and run the game with a single command:

$ uv run -s thinking-green.py

Otherwise, you can install Pygame in whatever way you prefer and then run the game using python3 thinking-green.py.
