Cross-platform 2D side-scrolling game written in C.

Dog Gone Wild

You are a dog. Your owner has been kidnapped. Stop the kidnappers and find your owner.

How to play

• Press WASD to run different animations. Placeholder sprites used from https://www.spriters-resource.com/snes/ff6/. Released game will contain sprites created by me.
• Press ESC to quit the application (wow!)
• More features to be added

How to compile

MacOS

• sh install.sh -- automatically installs SDL2, SDL2-dev, SDL2-image, SDL2-ttf, SDL2-mixer.
• sh build.sh -- automatically cleans, compiles, and executes the game.

Linux (Debian)

• sh install.sh -- automatically installs SDL2, SDL2-dev, SDL2-image, SDL2-ttf, SDL2-mixer.
• sh build.sh -- automatically cleans, compiles, and executes the game.

Windows 7 & 10

• Install MinGW http://www.mingw.org/ -- (TODO: Reason goes here)
• Modify Windows PATH to include C:\MinGW32\bin. You should be able to execute gcc in Command Prompt.

Now we need to put SDL2.dll file in both 32-bit and 64-bit system locations (Windows)

• Download/extract SDL2-devel-2.x.x-mingw.tar.gz
• Copy i686-w64-mingw32bin\SDL2.dll file into C:\Windows\System\SysWOW64.
• Copy x86_64-w64-mingw32\bin\SDL2.dll file into C:\Windows\System\System32.
• Traverse to root directory with PowerShell or Command Prompt.
• Compile code by typing mingw32-make.exe to run Makefile for Windows.
• Run game by typing .\bin\main.exe
• If you receive an error such as Unable to start correctly or SDL2.dll not found, try switching SDL2.dll placement.
