Homepage: <https://blockattack.net><br/> Source: <https://github.com/blockattack/blockattack-game> ## Screen shot  ## Dependencies * A version of g++ with C++11 support. Tested on g++-4.9 * libSDL2 * libSDL2_image * libSDL2_mixer * libSDL2_ttf * libphysfs * libboost (only needed for compiling) * libboost-program-options ## Building The only supported build method is using the CMake<br/> To build do: ``` ./packdata.sh cmake . # or # cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug . # or # cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release . make ``` The result should be in the "Game"-folder. To run ``` ./Game/blockattack ``` You can also choose to install it with ``` sudo make install ``` Windows build uses MXE (mxe.cc) with these installed: ``` sdl2 sdl2_image sdl2_mixer sdl2_ttf physfs libtool gettext freetype zlib boost ``` Compiled with: ``` i686-w64-mingw32.static-cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release . && make ``` ## Building using Docker As getting a C++ project with many dependencies to compile can be a daunting task then I have provided a couple of Docker images that can perform a build. Both for Windows and Linux. The project should at all time be able to compile on the oldest and latest supported version of Ubuntu. This is tested with Docker. On a fresh checkout you can use: ``` docker build -f source/misc/docker/Dockerfile.Ubuntu18.04build . -t blockattack_test ``` and ``` docker build -f source/misc/docker/Dockerfile.WindoesBuild . -t blockattack_test ``` ## Source Structure This project is a bit unconventional because I didn't know any better at the time. * Game - The output is placed here * man - The manual file and the script to generate it. May be moved to source/misc at some point * source/code/ - The source code * source/code/Libs - External libs that are compiled into the project because they are either header only (Cereal) or not designed for use as a shared library. * source/code/sago - Source code. Not designed to be specific to Block Attack - Rise of the Blocks * source/assets - Source for the assets if relevant. For instance svg source for the graphics. * source/misc - Misc stuff. Code related tool that are used for development but not part of the final product. * source/misc/astyle - Helper script that enforces code style using the "astyle"-program * source/misc/cmake - Files needed by CMake * source/misc/docker - Docker files used by Travis CI (but can just as well be used for local testing and release builds) * source/misc/icons - Icons for the installer * source/misc/screenshots - Screen shots like the one in this README file. * source/misc/translation - Translations and related tools and scripts * source/misc/travis_help - Helper files for Travis CI * windows installer - Information needed to Windows installer. May be moved to source/misc at some point ## Reporting bugs Please report bugs on github: <https://github.com/blockattack/blockattack-game/issues> If possible: Check if the bug is already fixed in master. But if you don't know how to check it then just report it. ## Contributions Contributions are welcome. Both the current graphics and the original sharedir support was provided by kind individuals. Patches can be attached to a github ticket or sent to poul@poulsander.com directly. You can also create pull requests on Github.
