Zbyl / PushoverAndroid

Open source re-implementation of the Pushover game.

Pushover

This is an open source re-implementation of the Pushover game: https://www.mobygames.com/game/pushover

It is a fork of version 0.0.5 of http://pushover.sourceforge.net/ project, by Andreas Röver et al. It is distributed under GPL version 3, as mandated by the license of the original project.

The primary goal of this fork is to provide Android support.

Compilation

This project uses Android Studio 3 and requires the following libraries:

• SDL2-2.0.7
• SDL2_mixer-2.0.2 Note: Set SUPPORT_MP3_MPG123 ?= false in Android.mk for x86 build to work. This should be fixed in newer versions of SDL2_mixer.
• SDL2_ttf-2.0.14
• lua-5.3.4
• lpng1634
• zlib1211

Those libraries should be unpacked to: app/src/main/jni/SDL2/* app/src/main/jni/SDL2_mixer/* app/src/main/jni/SDL2_ttf/* app/src/main/jni/lua/* app/src/main/jni/lpng/* app/src/main/jni/zlib/*

Use *.mk files that are provided in this repository.

Make sure to build a Debug build variant, otherwise you will get errors that .apk is not signed.

Controls

Screen is divided into 9 parts. Touch any to perform an action:

 Grab |  Up  | Grab
------|------|------
 Left | Grab | Right
------|------|------
 Esc  | Down | Help

Press Left/Right + Grab to push a block.

Major differences from original project

Basic Android support. The game is playable, but the UI is not very convenient.

Ported code to SDL 2.

Removed dirty rect tracking. Everything is drawn every time (except for background, which is cached). This eliminated a fair amount of code.

Todo

• Fix application exit.

• Fix game timing.

• Fix level fade in animation.

• Fix sound enable bug?

• Fix sound playing bug? (Falling blocks for example.)

• Domino fallen on blocker is draw on top after a while.

• Dominos flash behind/on top of ladders.

• Loading level sets in levelset.cpp

• Find all stat references.

• Remove file IO from pngloader. Use SDL.

• Remove config.h. Introduce constant for version.

• Fix t display (long cast) in userData_c::userData_c.

• Add click feedback on windows.

• Re-enable localization

• Cleanup fullscreen handling.

• Re-enable windowed mode on desktops.

• Prepare CMake projects for Windows and Linux.

• Text input handling (backspace) is not utf-clean.

• Input window won't work well with big keyboards.

• Refactor a lot...
