so_long is a 2D video game project, part of the 42 school curriculum. This project is designed to introduce students to graphical programming and to reinforce skills in managing graphics libraries (like MiniLibX), creating interactive applications, and understanding 2D rendering.
- A simple yet engaging 2D game environment.
- Implementation of key game mechanics like player movement, map parsing, and collision detection.
- Utilization of MiniLibX for graphical rendering in both Linux and macOS environments.
- Clean, modular code with organized file structure for easy navigation and expansion.
- GCC compiler
- GNU make
- MiniLibX library (setup varies based on the operating system)
To compile so_long, run:
make all
This command compiles the game executable, so_long, along with necessary libraries.
After compilation, execute the game using:
./so_long [path_to_map_file]
To remove object files and the game executable:
make fclean
To recompile the game:
make re
src/*.c- Source files for game logic, rendering, and control handling.assets/- Directory containing game assets like sprites and sounds.maps/- Sample maps for the game.
In so_long, the player navigates through a map, avoiding obstacles and collecting items. The goal is to reach the end of the level while maximizing the score.
Enjoy the game and feel free to contribute or extend it!
