This is the first graphic project in the 42 cursus.
It consists in creating a litle 2D video games with simple rules: there is a map in input, which gives the start position of the player, the position of the collectible items, and the exit position.
The player has to collect all of the items and to walk on the exit to finish the game. The less moves he does, the better score he obtaines.
Bonus points are given if:
- some sprites are animated;
- the score is displayed directly in the game's window;
- there are enemies and the player can lose if he touches one of them.
For this project, we could use the following functions:
- open, close, read, write, malloc, free, perror, strerror, exit
- math.h library
- MiniLibX library
All other existing functions or libraries were forbidden, and we had to use the given version of the MiniLibX, which is a small graphic library for C graphic projects at 42 School.
This project will only work on linux distributions. Type the following command on a bash terminal to install the prerequisites:
sudo apt-get install bc gcc make xorg libxext-dev libbsd-devType the following commands on a bash terminal to install the program:
git clone https://github.com/Arawyn42/42_so_longcd 42_so_long && make && make clean./so_long maps/[map].berReplace [map] with the map of your choice. You can find some maps in the maps folder.
You can also create your own map. For this, just create a text file and name it your_map_name.ber The map must be rectangular, must be surrounded by walls, and must contain the following characters:
- 1 for wall
- 0 for ground
- C for collectible items
- P for player's start position
- E for exit
It can't contain more or less than 1 player's start position and 1 exit.
