GridHero

The Grid Hero is a strategic pathfinding game where the player must navigate through a grid, avoiding an enemy that dynamically finds the shortest path to capture them. The player's goal is to collect gold coins on the grid before being caught by the enemy. These coins are used to progress through three levels of increasing difficulty and use them in the final boss battle.Once the two levels are completed, the player engages in a final battle with a dragon, marking the end of the game.

Instructions

Instructions to compile and run the code:

Step 1. Clone the Repository.

Step 2. The structure of Repository should like this:

    GridHero
    |
    |--cli
    |__controller

Step 3: Compile and Build Backend (C++)

1. Command: cd controller

2. Command:

g++ -std=c++17 -o game player/Player.cpp enemy/Enemy.cpp enemy/Dragon.cpp Game.cpp main.cpp inventory/Ammo.cpp inventory/Storage.cpp

3. Command:

For linux:

g++ -std=c++17 -shared -fPIC -o libgamebackend.so main.cpp player/Player.cpp enemy/Enemy.cpp enemy/Dragon.cpp Game.cpp inventory/Ammo.cpp inventory/Storage.cpp

For macOS:

g++ -std=c++17 -shared -fPIC -o libgamebackend.dylib main.cpp player/Player.cpp enemy/Enemy.cpp enemy/Dragon.cpp Game.cpp inventory/Ammo.cpp inventory/Storage.cpp

For Windows:

g++ -std=c++17 -shared -fPIC -o libgamebackend.dll main.cpp player/Player.cpp enemy/Enemy.cpp enemy/Dragon.cpp Game.cpp inventory/Ammo.cpp inventory/Storage.cpp

4. Move this file to cli. The path of the file should be: ../GridHero/cli/libgamebackend.dylib/.so/.dll (same as Frontend.java)

Step 4: Set Up Frontend

1. Command: cd cli

2. Command: javac Frontend.java

Step 5: To run the program

1. cd GridHero/cli

2. java -Djava.library.path=. Frontend

This will run the program in your terminal.
