terminal-game-framework

Mini framework for helping with simple 2D text-based terminal games.

About the project

A simple C++ framework to help with building simple 2D text-based games, developed and tested on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS.

The framework supports:

• The ability to have different game levels.
• Sound Handling (work in progress).
• Rendering textures to the terminal.
• Collision Handling between different Units.
• A Unit interface for creating custom Units.
• Input Handling.

Games made using this framework:

• breakout

  

• avoid the cats!

  

• terminal_snake

  

Future plans

• Refactor the code to rely more on stack objects and smart pointers instead of C pointers for better memory managment.
• Add audio support.
• Improve the Design of the code and employ more Design patterns and OOP principles.

Libraries used:

• ncurses -for interfacing with the terminal.
