explorer-game

A simple exploration game using SFML.

Hey there, find below the pieces of information you need to understand my little project.

Motivation

This project is:

• for fun
• to improve myself
• to try this thingy called Github

SFML-based game (C++)

See SFML's Website for installation and documentation.

The game is very basic at the moment, you "spawn" in a disgusting level (which was made for debugging and testing really), you can walk and click entities. When you click an entity, one reply show at a time.

About the stucture of the project

Every resource file is located somewhere in the res folder. See the help file for guidelines on how to edit maps (very basic at the moment).

This is is the first project I push to Github, happy reviewing! (and by the way, help is always welcome)

A note on the bash scripts

There are 3 main scripts that I have made (very simple ones):

• cr_sfml.sh: Checks in the files_list file for files to compile, and then compiles them
• animation_to_sprite.sh : this one uses ImageMagick, and is handy to create a small spritesheet only containing the animation frames (from separate .png files)
• exec_db_inits.sh : uses two subscripts (init_db.sh and feed_tables.sh) to empty the database's tables and then load in some data from files

NOTE: I am developping on Debian! The executable is called sfml-app for now (subject to change).
