The purpose of this project is learning C++ and SDL2 library. Minesweeper, Tetris and Snake are currently available.
Requirements:
- CMake 3.8 or newer
- Сompiler supporting C++17 or newer
- SDL2
- SDL2_ttf
On Debian-based systems (including Ubuntu) SDL2 and SDL2_ttf libraries can be installed using the following commands:
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-2.0
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-dev
sudo apt-get install libsdl2-ttf-dev
On Windows you need to download and install these libraries:
Building the executable file on Linux-based OS can be done using the following commands:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make all
Run:
./GameRunner
Use cmake-gui to create solution for Visual Studio on Windows. Set 'Where is the source code' to root of this repository (For example, C:/SimpleSDLGames/). Set 'Where to build the binaries' to some new directory in root of repository (For example, C:/SimpleSDLGames/build)
After 'Configure' stage cmake will requests for paths to header files and to compiled libraries (SDL2 and SDL2_ttf).
You need to set up these variables:
SDL2_INCLUDE_DIRS
SDL2_LIBRARIES_DIRS
SDL2_TTF_INCLUDE_DIRS
SDL2_TTF_LIBRARIES_DIRS
To run game after building, go to the directory with binaries (For example, C:/SimpleSDLGames/build/Debug) and run GameRunner.exe
Tested on Debian 10 and Windows 10.
