Cube bouncing against window edges and against a changing obstacle

Bouncing_cube 1.6.1

What does the program do ?

• A cube bounces against the edges of the window and against a central obstacle which contracts little by little
• The cube changes color depending on the location of its collision (upper/lower edges of the window, side edges of the window, over/under the central obstacle, etc.)
• Each time the cube comes in contact with an edge of the window, the width of the central obstacle contracts a notch. The obstacle continues to contract to a minimum before it returns to its original size
• The initial color of the obstacle changes color as it contracts
• The animation speed can be controlled by pressing up arrow (speed ++) or pressing down arrow (speed --), the initial speed can be retrieved by pressing space
• Real-time information can be displayed at the top left of the window (cube coordinates, obstacle width, vector etc. (Set infoDisplay to True)
