Cortex - The psychedelic tunnel-runner

Cortex

You are a thought. A thought to be born…

Guide your thought through the labyrinth of the brain, avoid hitting the walls and obstacles, nothing should distract you…

A minimalistic-ambient reflex game with a 60 frames per second flow experienceand the atmospheric music of Tamas Katai.

The code is also suitable for learning purposes.

Tech info

Cortex is a pure C project written in headerless C.
It uses reference-counted memory management ( zc_memory.c ).
It uses modular programming with mediator - implementation groups with different functionality that don't include each other directly, they send messages to each other.
If a module is "static" a global variable is used to store it's state, instancing is meaningless .

TODO

  • keyboard control in menu
  • rethink scene generation, it's hard to understand currently and flipping is visible on narrow screens
