A clone of the 2D top-to-bottom scroller "1942".

You are playing 194x

From a terminal:

make
./194x

At the menu screen:

• hit 'p' to play
• hit 'q' to quit

When playing:

• arrow keys move
• spacebar fires

You are modifying 194x

Make sure you using the clang on OS X, not some random GCC version which you installed in /usr/local. Otherwise you might get errors about a lack of support for -fpascal-strings and the inability of GCC to find an Objective-C compiler.

Docs on my machine are at file:///Users/tomcopeland/src/SDL2-2.0.1/Xcode/XcodeDocSet/html/index.html. I generated them with cd /Users/tomcopeland/src/SDL2-2.0.1/Xcode/XcodeDocSet && doxygen.

Some not-so-helpful STL docs are at file:///usr/local/gcc-4.9/include/c++/4.9.0/bits/html/index.html; I generated them with cd /usr/local/gcc-4.9/include/c++/4.9.0/bits/ && doxygen -g && doxygen.

TODO

• Waves of enemies - e.g, 6 planes come down from upper left and exit on upper right
• • pass a Path object into each Enemy
• Player strike puts game into 'between lives' state
• • explosion is bigger
• • enemies disappear
• • ideally a number of planes decrements
• • • display number of planes remaining
• Enemy plane shoots
• Enemy planes move left/right
• Explosion goes more slowly
• Enemy bullet affects player sprite
• Destruction of enemy plane leaves power up
• • power up types: multiple bullets, faster moves, a bomb, faster rate of fire
• Player has limited number of lives
• Implement 'paused' state
• Pressing 's' (or 'm'?) during gameplay mutes sound
