README.md
This is my first semi-big or not-so-small project, made to get my hands dirty with SDL2, have fun and experiment how feels to make an actual game, with its structure and stuff.
So far I have implemented a regular platformer, with its player, player physics, powerups, walls/blocks, and a menu system. It's all messy and clunky but hey, it's my first time and I'm doing what I can so have patience with it if you watch some huge stupid mistake thingy. And of course if you see one of those, tell me, correct it and make a pull request or put an issue!
Controls
In the menu:
- UP and DOWN to navigate
- SPACE to accept
PD: the first button is to play, the third one quits the game and the second one... does nothing.
In-game:
- ARROWS To move around
- SPACE To jump
- LSHIFT To run
Compiling
The Makefile it's very outdated and SDL2's header files path differs from windows so I would recommend to compile it on Windows. If you want to compile it in Linux you have to change the include path from <SDL.h> and <SDL_image.h> to <SDL2/SDL.h> and <SDL2/SDL_Image.h>.
This project uses the SDL2 and SDL2_Image libraries. You can find those here: https://www.libsdl.org/download-2.0.php
After making sure that you have SDL2 and SDL_Image installed use your favorite IDE or compiler to compile it. Don't forget to include the C++11 (-std=c++11), SDL2 (-lSDL2main and -lSDL2) and SDL2_Image (-lSDL2_Image) flags. I found out that if you're using MinGW to compile it you have to add its flag (-lmingw32) or it will throw weird errors.
