So_long, a small 2D game in MiniLibX
École 42 project, a small 2D game in C using the MiniLibX graphics library: sprite rendering, keyboard event handling, parsing and validation of a map.
École 42 Paris
Impact
- Functional 2D game using the MiniLibX graphics library
- Sprite rendering and keyboard event handling
- Rigorous parsing and validation of the map
Context
A project from the École 42 Paris curriculum, completed in 2022. So_long is an exercise with a fixed brief: the C language and the MiniLibX graphics library are dictated by the assignment, within which the project's technical choices are made.
What was done
A 2D game with MiniLibX: loading and displaying sprites, handling keyboard events, player movement, items to collect, and parsing/validation of the map (closed walls, valid path, required elements).
Stack
The technologies used on this mission.
- C
- MiniLibX
