C++ Maze Game - Allegro

WIP game in development for a Uni class. Uses C++ and Allegro library. AI needs work and collision detection needs a bit of tweaking.

Sorry about the bad camera, Camtasia slows down the game process when I try to record.

thanks for commenting.. nice mini game this one.. how did you go about with collision detection?? did you do that by comparing the pointers of each objects??? eg.. if wall pointer is == player pointer, then collide??

I store the maze in a vector of strings, Therefore is split into rows and columns, I then have a function that takes the players location and divides by the block size, that gets me the row and column location of where the player is within the maze, I can then just do simple if statements checking the surrounding spaces to see if they are walls.

One question:

You get the tile position by didviding the Position of Player with the block size

Example:

Block Size: 32px

PlayerX: 64

64/32=2;

So in this example the tilepos will be 2?

[limited06]

Yes thats right, you do it for both the X and Y so you can work out which grid space the player is on.

hehe nice monster inteligence, monster.dir.x=Hero.pos.x-monst­er.pos.x;

monster.dir.y=Hero.pos.y-monst­er.pos.y;
