This project was my third completed game, made back in 2015. It's a simple endless runner game where you must jump over and slide under obstacles whilst collecting as many coins as possible to get a highscore. A download for the game can be found over on itch.io, the game is also playable in browser on the same page.
The game was developed in C++ using the SDL2 library. A port for web browsers was also recently developed using emscripten.
Launch the build/win32/win32
shortcut to setup a command prompt in the right
environment. The game can then be built by typing build
in the console.
Different types of builds can be made by specifying an extra argument after the
initial build command, these arguments are:
debug - builds a debug version of the game (default)
release - builds a release version of the game
final - builds and packages a release version
In order to be able to execute builds Visual Studio must be installed. All other dependencies (SDL2, etc.) are provided within the repository.
Launch the build/web/web
shortcut to setup a command prompt in the right
environment. The game can then be built by typing build
in the console.
Different types of builds can be made by specifying an extra argument after
the initial build command, these arguments are:
release - builds a release version of the game (default)
final - builds and packages a release version
In order to be able to execute builds emscripten must be installed. By default
the build script looks for emscripten at the relative location
../../../.emsdk
, in order to change this path open the 'build/web/setup.bat'
file and change the emsdk_location
variable.
