GLUTCraft - A 3D Game written in C with [Freeglut](http://freeglut.sourceforge.net)
====
This game is inspired by [Minecraft](https://www.minecraft.net), so you can discover some similarities. Just like [TravorOS](https://github.com/TravorLZH/TravorOS), it is still implementing basic features. Now you can browse the world using the same keys in Minecraft.

## Features
I would like to list my features in this game. The feature list is basically the Work Plan of this game.
### Implemented
* **Resize Support** The display won't stretch if you stretch the window
* **Moving Camera** You can use W, A, S, D to move forward, left, backward, and right
* **Turning Head** You can use: ↑, ↓, ←, and → to turn your head to different directions
* **Debug Screen** You can press F3 to display data in the display.
* **Turning moving directions** The direction of head will decide the direction to move.
* **Crosshair in the center of screen** You can see a crosshair similar to Minecraft's in the screen.
### Developing
* **Turning head using mouse** Your mouse is always centered after pressing M because I am attempting to implement this features.
## Installation Guide
To build this game, you need to install the following packages first:
* [FreeGLUT](http://freeglut.sourceforge.net) It's necessary because all my code relies on it. Make sure the option **FREEGLUT_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS** is set to **ON**. To install it on Debian Linux, you may use the following command.
```
# apt-get update
# apt-get install freeglut3-dev
```
* [CMake](https://cmake.org") The building system I use because it supports building on different platforms.
### Windows with MinGW
If you are using [MinGW](http://mingw.org), you need to have `mingw32-make` installed. So type the following to build:
```shell
cmake . -G"MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=%PREFIX%
mingw32-make
mingw32-make install
```
## Linux
[](https://asciinema.org/a/169118)
You must have `build-essential` installed. Then type:
```shell
cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$PREFIX
make
make install
```
