Air Force (https://github.com/Sheph/airforce)

=========================

1. About

-------------------

The goal of this project is to create high quality

open-source arcade game that can run on most desktop and

mobile platforms such as Linux, Windows, Android, iOS, etc.

The main reason why I started this projects is because I

wanted to have a mobile game that keeps the gameplay

unique all the time and frequently provides some new

game elements. Modern mobile games such as Angry Birds

are nice, but they get boring quickly, think about it,

all you have to do is to shoot pigs with birds and

yout have 300+ levels of the same stuff. Yes, they

do give you some new bird type from time to time and

the locations are changing, but the gameplay is always

the same, you just shoot pigs with birds.

Now take a look at

Contra Hard Corps - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91vYIxt6oDo

Though this is only level 1 you can see that

there's always something new happening, now you're

fighting that fire breathing thing, the next moment building

goes off and you clime it and then some huge monster comes out

and attacks you, etc. One major problem with Contra Hard

Corps however is that it's really hard to play. What I want

to do is to combine the principles of Angry Birds and

Contra Hard Corps - make a game that's both easy and fun

to play and that always brings something new into

gameplay, i.e. keeps the player involved.

2. Status

-------------------

This is still very early prototype, it's a work in progress

and it's pretty far from being done.

3. Building and running

-------------------

Currently it builds and runs only on linux.

In order to simplify building (for myself :)) I keep

third-party dependencies in binary form inside ./lib dir.

If you're on Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit then you won't have

any problems building/running, otherwise you'll probably

have to rebuild these third-party libs yourself...

To build:

cd ./airforce

./cmake_i386_release.sh

cd ../airforce-i386-release

make

To run:

cd ./out/bin

./airforce

Use left and right arrow keys to steer and navigate the world.
