Pac-Man

This project have been made for me to learn C and SDL2 library.

To compile the project, you need to have SDL2 and SDL2_image installed on your computer.

Then, you can compile the project with the following command:

cd src
make

This will create a pacman executable in the bin folder.

To run the game, you can use the following command:

cd bin
chmod +x pacman
./pacman

To clean the project, you can use the following command:

cd src
make clean

This will remove all the .o files and the pacman executable.

• Custom level file format (see Leveling)
• Custom tileset file format (see tileset.png)
• Custom font file format (see font.ttf) (note that the default font is Open Sans Regular from Google Fonts)
• Sprite animation (ghosts and pacman) :
  • Ghosts (see Ghosts)
  • Pacman (see Pacman)
• Ghost AI (Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde)
• Bonus (cherry, strawberry, orange, apple) (see Bonus)

You can create your own level by editing level.txt file in the data folder.

All the tiles are defined in the tileset.png file.

Here is the list of all the tiles:

Note that the tileset is composed of 32x32 tiles.

Note also that you have multiple walls types (see tileset.png). You have a wall type that is taken the 2/3 of the tile and another one that is taken the 1/3 of the tile, the last one is centered in the tile.

The ghosts are controlled by a random algorithm. The ghosts can move in 4 directions (up, down, left and right). The ghosts can't move in the opposite direction of their current direction.

Ghost	Color	Sprite
Blinky	Red
Pinky	Pink
Inky	Cyan
Clyde	Orange
Scared ghost	White / Blue

The bonus will appear at a random interval of time and have a random position on the map. The bonus will disappear after a certain amount of time. Then the bonus will automatically reappear at a random interval of time and have a random position on the map.

Pacman is controlled by the player. The player can move in 4 directions (up, down, left and right).

The player goal is to eat all the dots and the bonus. The player can eat the ghosts after eating a big dot (the ghosts will be scared for a certain amount of time).
