Breakout

Overview

This project builds off of the pong game I created, adding more complicated state and collision logic, and improved UI.

Initial setup

Because this repository contains LFS objects, it cannot be used as a regular Github template. Thus, there are two options for getting started:

• If you want to keep this repo's history, clone it, create a new remote repo, and switch the upstream remote:
  • git clone https://github.com/tpstevens/Breakout.git [optional-path]
  • cd <path-to-cloned-repo>
  • Create a new empty repo (on Github or another host of your choice). Copy the URL (https://something/something.git).
  • git remote remove origin
  • git remote add origin <new-repo-URL>
  • git push --set-upstream origin master
• If you don't care to keep this repo's history:
  • Download the archive
  • Extract it (in a new repo or existing repo)
  • Commit and push

Usage

• Run Scripts/SetupTemplate.ps1 to change the project name
• Using your favorite text editor (Notepad++):
  • Run a find-and-replace operation to replace all instances of the old GUID (printed from SetupTemplate.ps1) to the new GUID (also printed from SetupTemplate.ps1)
  • Run a find-and-replace operation to replace all instances of Breakout with YourProjectName
• Open the project in Visual Studio
