The project is an adventure based top view role playing game. The game is a slightly different take on the classic adventure role playing games. The premise, the main character played as a university student gets trapped within the compounds of his university. While trying to escape, he soon discovers that his department isn’t the same at night. There are locked rooms and unknown stairways which lead to the depths of the building. Now, he must cross it all and escape. The player would have to wander and find "keys". Often, in order to unlock keys there will be puzzles and enemies to defeat. Each key unlocks a new region. Coins are scattered around the map which can be used to gain special abilities and discover hidden secrets. If all the keys are collected and the final level is completed, the player can leave the department premises. Or, he can replay all the levels again.
- Download the precompiled library files of SFML 2.5.0 for Visual Studio 2017 (32 bit) and place in desired folder.
- In Visual Studio open Project > Properties > C/C++ > Additional include libraries and add the path to the
/includefolder of the SFML library here. - Again in Project > Properties, goto Linker > General and add the path to the
/libfolder of the SFML library to the Additional Library Directories option. - Finally in Linker > Input > Additional Dependencies add the following to the front of the line separated by a semi-colon
sfml-graphics.lib;sfml-window.lib;sfml-system.lib;sfml-network.lib;sfml-audio.lib;
- Copy paste the .dll files from the /lib folder to the project folder or the system32 folder of the PC
- Download the precompiled library files of TGUI 0.8 for Visual Studio 2017 and place in desired folder.
- In Visual Studio open Project > Properties > C/C++ > Additional include libraries and add the path to the
/includefolder of the TGUI library here. - Again in Project > Properties, goto Linker > General and add the path to the
/libfolder of the TGUI library to the Additional Library Directories option. - Finally in Linker > Input > Additional Dependencies add the following ** after the SFML libraries **
tgui.lib. It should look something like this afterwards.
sfml-graphics.lib;sfml-window.lib;sfml-system.lib;sfml-network.lib;sfml-audio.lib;tgui.lib;....
- Copy paste the .dll files from the /lib folder to the project folder or the system32 folder of the PC
If using CMake to build, set the SFML_DIR_R && TGUI_DIR_R to the SFML and TGUI directories respectively in CMakeLists.txt.
For installing SFML and TGUI execute the following commands on a terminal
sudo apt-get install libsfml-dev
(Ubuntu 15.10 or lower)
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:texus/tgui-0.7
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libtgui-dev
Alternatively, you can build the libraries from source (for compatibility issues or latest version). Related instructions can be found on library websites.
For others you have to build the libraries from source. Related instructions can be found here and here.
Caution: When building from source make sure the versions of SFML and TGUI are compatible.
You can use the given Visual Studio Project file or generate your own using the CMakeLists.txt
If using CMake, make sure to set the SFML_DIR_R && TGUI_DIR_R to the SFML and TGUI directories respectively in CMakeLists.txt.
Note: If having issues running the executable make sure all the .dll files are in the folder where the executable file is (.exe). You can also try copying the resource folders (res, save & extra) to the said folder if it is still causing issues.
For building on linux execute the following from the source directory (the directory with CMakeLists.txt)
mkdir bin && cd bin/
cmake ..
make
Note: You have to execute the binary Somber from the source directory as the resource folders are located there.
cd ..
./bin/Somber
Alternatively you can copy the resource folders (res, save & extra) to the bin folder.
