Description

My second year game development project. A 2D top-down stealth based game. See here for more information.

Each level is generated based on the given tmx file.

The required layer are called:

obstacles
shadows
entities

In the obstacles layer, there are two required objects.
A light source labelled "fire" and a staircase labelled "staircase".

In the entities layer, there are 3 types of possible entities that are handled:

Enemy
Player
Treasure

The appropriate entity class with the given coordinate will be spawned at the locations given by the map.

The map must be in the levels folder, in a folder with the same name as the map.
For example, tutorialLevel is located in /levels/tutorialLevel/tutorialLevel.tmx

Instructions

Navigate to the root of the cloned directory.
Run ./gradlew run.
