Pixel Arena (Text-Based Game)

This is the repository for Group E4's text-based game for the Activity-Led Learning 2 module at Coventry University. We are making a Pokemon-esque, dungeon-crawler battle game, where the objective is to beat your opponent (another player), using the heroes that you selected before the match started.

Running the game

On Ubuntu, you will need to have CMake, G++ and Ncurses. They can be installed using the following commands respectively:

sudo apt-get install cmake
sudo apt-get install g++
sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
sudo apt-get install libncursesw5-dev
sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev

Then in the project repository, run the two following two commands:

cmake .
cmake --build .

This will create an executable inside the newly created bin folder. To execute this file, type bin/main in the terminal, when in the main project directory.

Playing the game

Once you run the game using the above commands, you will be greeted by the following screen:

On screens where you see a menu like this, you may navigate around the menu using your keyboard's arrow keys. To select an option, simply hit the Enter key.
