Arcade

Arcade is a gaming platform: a program that lets the user choose a game to play and keeps a register of player scores. To be able to deal with the elements of your gaming plate- form at run-time, your graphics libraries and your games must be implemented as dynamic libraries, loaded at run- time.

We used the SFML, SDL2 and ncurses graphical libraries.

We needed to follow the following architecture:

If you want to implement your game or graphical library, please use our abstraction and read the documentation:

Build and run

Linux:

make
./arcade ./lib/(first graphical lib to be loaded).so

Documentation

Make sure that you have Doxygen installed

make doc

File are generated in ./Documentation folder.

If you have Firefox you can run:

make doc-firefox

It generate documentation and launch a html preview.

Bonus

You can change game's textures at runtime.

To do so you need to use 50px x 50px images place them in ./resources folder and name it like this:

Object	Name
Apple	apple.png
Ball	ball.png
Enemies	enemi.png
Player	player.png
Pac gum	special.png
Wall	wall.jpeg
