# Falling Blocks Game

This is a simple game built using **SFML** (Simple and Fast Multimedia Library) in C++. The game involves avoiding or collecting falling blocks of different colors. Each block type has a different score value, and the game ends when your health reaches zero.

## Features

- Dynamic falling blocks with randomized colors and sizes.

- Points system based on block type.

- Level progression with increasing block speed.

- Game-over screen when health reaches zero.

  

## Prerequisites

- **SFML**: Download and set up SFML for your version of Visual Studio from [SFML Downloads](https://www.sfml-dev.org/download.php).

- **Visual Studio**: Recommended version Visual Studio 2019 or later.

  

## Project Setup

1. **Download and Extract SFML**: 

   - Download SFML from [SFML Downloads](https://www.sfml-dev.org/download.php).

   - Extract it to a location on your computer.

2. **Configure Visual Studio Project**:

   - Go to **Project Properties** → **Configuration Properties** → **VC++ Directories**.

   - Add paths for **Include Directories** and **Library Directories**:

     - **Include Directory**: `[Path to SFML]/include`

     - **Library Directory**: `[Path to SFML]/lib`

3. **Link SFML Libraries**:

   - Under **Linker** → **Input** in Project Properties, add the following libraries to **Additional Dependencies**:

     ```

     sfml-graphics.lib

     sfml-window.lib

     sfml-system.lib

     ```

   - For the Debug configuration, link with the `-d` versions of each library, such as `sfml-graphics-d.lib`, etc.

4. **Copy DLLs**:

   - Copy the necessary `.dll` files from `[Path to SFML]/bin` to your project’s Debug/Release directory. For example:

     - `sfml-graphics.dll`

     - `sfml-window.dll`

     - `sfml-system.dll`

   - For Debug mode, use the `-d` versions, like `sfml-graphics-d.dll`, etc.

## Usage

After setting up the project, you can build and run it within Visual Studio. 

### Controls

- Use the mouse to click on blocks to collect them and gain points.

- The game displays a game-over screen when your health reaches zero.
