YAMMC - Yet Another Midas Miner Clone

My hobby project is to create a clone of the game Midas Miner. The artwork/fonts/sfx is not mine and I consider it to be public domain. If someone disagree please let me know and I will remove it.

My goal is to make the game better then the original: http://www.royalgames.com/games/puzzle-games/midas-miner

YAMMC has been tested and works under Windows 10 (x64 only), OSX 10.12/10.13/10.14/10.15/11.00, Raspian GNU/Linux 9/10 (stretch/buster) and Ubuntu 16.04 Features:

• Smooth Animation
• Many effects
• Music and sound
• Advanced scoring system

M	Toggle music on/off

Build YAMMC

Dependencies:

• C++17 compliant compiler (e.g. clang 4 or newer, Visual Studio 2017.3 / 2019 or GCC 7.x.x)
• cmake 3.10.0 or later (Windows) or 3.0.0 or later (OSX/Linux)
• git
• SDL2 (x64 only)
• SDL2_ttf (x64 only)
• SDL2_mixer (x64 only)

The test suit requires catch - Catch will be automatically downloaded and installed as part of the build process

OSX / Linux

Install the required libraries with apt/brew or any other package manager. Under Linux / Raspian install libsdl2-dev, libsdl2-ttf-dev and libsdl2-mixer-dev

Builds the project, default is a release build. Ninja is used if available:

make

Starts the game:

make run

Runs the test suit:

make test

Run cppcheck (if installed) on the codebase with all checks turned-on:

make cppcheck

Raspian GNU/Linux

You need to activate the OpenGL driver otherwise the game will be far to slow.

The code builds cleanly and has been tested with GCC 7.3 / 9.2 (with some warnings) and Clang 6 / 8 / 9. instructions how to install the compilers can be found here:

You need to set these environment variables before running make:

export PATH=/usr/local/gcc-7.3.0/bin:$PATH
export CXX=gcc-7.3.0

or

export PATH=/usr/local/clang_6.0.0/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/clang_6.0.0/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export CXX=clang

If you install a newer version of gcc or clang ensure that you update PATH/LD_LIBRARY/CXX settings accordingly.

64-bit Windows 10

Set the following environment variables (see System Properties/Environment Variables...):

SDL2DIR SDL2MIXER SDL2TTFDIR

Example: SDL2DIR C:\SDL2-2.0.5

The PATH should include all three libraries lib\x64 directories

Example: PATH C:\SDL2-2.0.5\lib\x64;C:\SDL2_mixer\lib\x64;C:\SDL2_ttf-2.0.14\lib\x64

Generate Visual Studio project files with CMakeSetup.exe
