Time for action — showing the "game over" screen

We will display Game Over by following the ensuing steps:

  1. Create a new method called ShowGameOver inside the game class.
    Method ShowGameOver:Int()
  2. Set the game mode to gmGameOver and activate layers with it.
    gameMode = gmGameOver
ActivateLayer(gameMode)
  3. Set the final score text object with the score value. Then, close the method.
    txtFinalScore.SetText("SCORE: "+score)
Return 0
End

What just happened?

This method will take care of showing the 'game over' screen.

Showing the menu screen

Usually, you don't need an extra method to show a layer, but if you do this in multiple places in your code, it makes sense to add a method for it and just call it. It helps in reducing the length of your code by removing redundant lines.
