This codebase contains various game modes that all use the same framework. When the game starts, you will begin in the "overworld". To start a particular game mode, walk into the area that denotes that mode.

Currently, the following games are at various stages of progress:

• 3D Monster maze: escape from the maze. Status Complete
• Alien Tag: Don't be the player who's been tagged the longest. Status: Complete
• Tower Defence: Build turrets to shoot the aliens. Status: Can walk around and place turrets.
• Stock car: Race around a track. Status: You can drive
• Deathchase: Crash into other players. Status: You can drive around a track.
• Funny Farm: Grow and harvest crops. Status: You can walk around an empty field
• FTL: An FTL-inspsired 3D game. Status: You can walk around a spaceship
• Dungeon: A 3D Roguelike. Status: You can walk around a basic procedurally-generated dungeon.
• Bladerunner: Identify and kill the replicant. Status: Barely started

Controls

• Press Space at the start to use keyboard/mouse, or press X on your controller to use that.
• Esc to exit back to the overworld, or to quit out.

It depends on the specific game selected, but controls are typically:-

• W, A S, D, Space and Enter for keyboard & mouse player. H for Help (where implemented).
• Tested with PS4 controllers.
• F1 - Toggle full Screen
• F2 - Toggle full screen but still windowed (required if you want to record the screen using Windows)

Notes for other Developers

• Development branch is the cutting edge but possibly broken branch. Master is the most stable but out of date.
• Gradle is a real pain to work with. However, if you have trouble loading this project, I used Gradle v4.10.3.
• The file Settings.java contains various settings that determine what game mode the game starts in.
