Match3-PGE

Simple clone of the common match3 genre using the olc::PixelGameEngine by Javidx9. It's just for fun and educational purpose. Feel free to modify, improve, and use it :) If you want to use the gem assets, feel free to use them in any creative way as I released them into public domain - acknowledgement is appreciated.

Installation

Just do for standard compilation on Linux (tested with gcc 8.2.1):

    # generates the application
    g++ -o Jewel mainJewels.cpp -lX11 -lGL -lpthread -lpng -lstdc++fs -std=c++17
    # run the application
    ./Jewel

Usage

Simply use the mouse to select a gem and another for switching gems. Try to create rows or coloumns with at least 3 similar colored gems or using anycolor gem.

Match3 Match3_Star

Special gems:

  • Bomb: 4 gems in consecutive order row/column Match4
  • Rainbow: 5 gems in consecutive order row/column Match5
  • Star (AnyColor gem): 7 different gems in consecutive order row/column Star
  • Color Heart (AnyColor bomb): 3 gems + star in consecutive order row/column Match4_Star
  • Color Rainbow: 4 gems + star/color heart in consecutive order row/column or 3+2stars Match5_Star

Effect:

  • Bomb: destroy 3x3 vicinity of bomb
  • Rainbow: destroy all gems of same color
  • Star: has every color for replacement
  • Color Heart: bomb with every color
  • Color Rainbow: destroys all gems as it has all colors

Random Drop:

  • Bomb: 1/64
  • Rainbow: 1/4096

Color Drop:

  • AnyColor: 1/64
  • Other: 63/64

ESC : quit
