bloxorzOpenGL

This project was created by The RAD Squad (B) for the Three Dimensional Graphics Course. We use the GLUT library in this project to manipulate the window, among other OpenGL functionalities.

We acknowledge that the idea for this game goes back to Damien Clark. All rights go back to them. This is merely a reimplementation of the game for the course's project.

Prerequisites to run the game

To run this game you must have OpenGL installed in the correct locations on your device:

1. Move glut.h into C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include\GL\
2. Move glut32.lib into C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\lib\
3. Move glut32.dll into C:\WindowsSystem32\

emphasis on the last one.

Just run the .exe file and have fun.

Technologies Used

• C/C++ OOP
  • Position Class
  • Dimension Class
  • Board Class
  • Block Class
• OpenGL
  • Transformations (To facilitate movement animation + scene movement)
    • glTranslated()
    • glRotated()
  • Window Manipulations
    • gluPerspective()
    • glViewPort()
  • GLUT callback functions
    • timer() - A timer to animate movement and update game state.
    • arrows() - Move around the scene (Around X and Y axes).
    • keyboard() - Control the movable block (WASD) and exit the game (ESC).

Goal of the Game

The goal of this game is to move around the playable block until it falls upright into the goal tile of the board.
