A packman game repo I left here for historical purposes

This repository is abandoned. I am reimplementing the game in a different repository.

history

I started this repository with nothing particular in mind, I just wanted to play around with SFML. But then I had the idea of making a packman game, which is what I did.

Later on, I developed 2D-engine, a C++ 2D game development library collection. I think it is a lot better than what you can find in the system/ and library/ folders of this repo. So I decided to port packman onto it, and abandoned this repo.

try it out!

requirements

• SFML 2.1
• python 3
• a gcc version that doesn't have problems with looser throw specifiers (eg 4.9.2)

I only tried this out on arch linux.

Download it by cloning the repository:

git clone https://github.com/shak-mar/cpp-games.git

or just download a tarfile or zipfile.

Build and run it with my build setup:

./build.py @build_and_run packman

You will end up in a splashscreen (a 16x16 yellow placeholder :D), press space to continue into the actual game.

The level you will end up in is not that impressive and fun at all. To change it, just edit application/packman/res/levels/example.txt. It should be pretty self-explanatory.
