# Bouncy Ball 📐🎱

This simple SFML application simulates real-world physics utilizing a little bouncy ball. 

Users can interact with the ball, by clicking it and disabling/enabling the gravity

and damping applied to the ball observe it's realistic behavior as it bounces around the screen. 

## Requirements 

- SFML Library - Ensure that you have the SFML library installed.

- C++ Compiler

- CMake (or other linking tool)

# Installation

- Make sure to have SFML already installed

- In the project directory run `chmod +x compile.sh` to build and run.

## Features 

* **Realistic Physics**: The application incorporates real-world physics principles, mainly gravity and damping. 

* **Interactive**: Users can interact with the ball by clicking and dragging it around the screen.

* **Visual Feedback**: Demonstrates the effects of gravity, momentum, collisions, acceleration and velocity.

## Design

Utilized a simple **_OOP_** approach to separate shared data, window functions, collision detection and ball actions. 

A cooler example of a **_state machine_** design can be viewed in my [Flappy Bird](https://github.com/sudfish/Flappy-Bird) recreation. 

## Demo

![Demo GIF](demo/demo.GIF)

## Controls

* `P` to toggle Pause

* `Q` to Quit

* 'D' to toggle Damping

* 'G' to toggle Gravity

* `Mouse` to drag the ball and give it acceleration
