Pixel Wars is a programming game where two minimalistic civilizations will grow and try to annihilate each other to conquer the Pixel World. But you don't have any real-time control over the action of your units. To be victorious, you'll have to code their behaviour in C/C++, and pray for a good result.
This repository is the application project, it has several dependencies : Qt5 modules: core gui widgets opengl, glm, SparrowRenderer, and cmake for the compilation
How to Use it from the precompiled builds (not available yet) :
- download the latest build (insert links here)
- unzip it anywhere
- the PixelWars executable is located in the bin folder
- you can now code your own Dude's behavior or map generator by placing in the respective "behaviors" and "generators" folder your compiled code in the form of a shared library, you can find an example in each folder named hello.cpp, containing the minimal code, the necessary includes, and the command line needed to compile it.
How to Build it from sources :
download and install git, cmake, Qt5, and a c++ compiler (gcc on Unix or MinGW on Windows)
get all required repositories :
git clone https://git.epicsparrow.com/epicsparrow/CMakeTemplate.git
git clone https://git.epicsparrow.com/epicsparrow/SparrowRenderer.git
git clone https://git.epicsparrow.com/epicsparrow/PixelWars.git
get all required dependencies, unzip this archive where you cloned the repositories : https://epicsparrow.com/media/libs/glm.zip
you can now compile the sparrow renderer :
- go in the SparrowRenderer folder
- mkdir build
- cd build
- cmake ..
- make
after that, you'll be able to compile PixelWars : (same procedure)
- go in the PixelWars folder
- mkdir build
- cd build
- cmake ..
- make
That's it ! The PixelWars executable should have been generated in the build folder
