By the way, with a few changes, we could have used the
Block
class as the basis for
Die
and
extended it in an object-oriented fashion. However, we will leave that effort for you to explore
yourself.
Creating the CustomEventClickDie class
The
CustomeEventClickDie
class is a minor rewrite of the
CustomEventClickBlock
class from
Color Drop in Chapter 8. In theory, we could have simply reused
CustomEventClickBlock
, or
even created a reusable class and put it into the
com.efg.framework
package. However, we
chose to simply rewrite the class here, because we wanted to reinforce the idea that you can
create these kinds of custom events for your games. While the game framework is a very
helpful tool, it will not write games for you. There will always be times to create classes that are
local to your game class.
