CONSOLE APPLICATION : TextFighter

Project Overview

TextFighter

TextFighter is a simple C++ text-based fighting game that showcases basic object-oriented programming concepts such as classes, constructors, destructors, getters/setters, and random-based combat.

Two fighters, Ryu and Ken, battle it out over multiple rounds using randomly generated attack values until one of them is knocked out.

---

Features

• Fighter class with:
  • Private health member
  • Constructor & destructor
  • Getter and setter for health
  • attack() method that uses rand() to generate damage
  • takeDamage() method to apply damage
• playerFight(round) function to simulate a full round between two fighters
• Three example rounds run from main()
• Uses rand() with srand(time(NULL)) to randomize attacks each run

---

How it works

• Each fighter starts with 100 health.
• On each turn:
  • Ryu attacks with a random value between 10 and 35
  • Ken attacks with a random value between 10 and 35
• Each fighter takes damage equal to the opponent’s attack.
• The round ends when either fighter’s health is <= 0.
• The program runs 3 rounds (playerFight(1), playerFight(2), playerFight(3)).

There is also a TODO in the code to implement a superAttack() method:

• Generates damage between 30 and 50
• Can only be used when the fighter’s health is below 15

---

Requirements

• C++ compiler (e.g. g++, clang++, MSVC)
• C++11 or later recommended

---

How to compile and run

Using g++:

g++ -std=c++11 -o TextFighter TextFighter.cpp
./TextFighter
