Building the project

• How to build it in CLion

  • Clone the repository

  git clone --recursive https://github.com/MartensCedric/PointCraft.git

  • Open it in CLion and press the green magic button.

• How to build it using CMake

  • Clone the repository

  git clone --recursive https://github.com/MartensCedric/PointCraft.git

  • Build the project the build_type can be either Release or Debug

  cd PointCraft
  mkdir build
  cd build
  cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=<build_type> ..
  cmake --build .

  • Run the game on Linux with an optional save to load:

  ./point_craft <saved-world.glc>

  • Or on Windows with an optional save to load

  point_craft.exe <saved-world.glc>

Features

• Rendering

  • An implementation of the Floyd-Steinberg Dithering algorithm was used See Wikipedia.
  • The implementation is unfortunately on the CPU since the algorithm cannot be run in parallel due to the sequential requirements.
  • A parameter called diffusion_multiplier is available to multiply the Floyd-Steinberg fractions.

• Controls

  • Left Click to break a block
  • Middle Click to pick a block
  • Right Click to place a block
  • WASD to move around
  • Shift to descend when physics is off
  • Space to ascend when physics is off, or jump when physics is on
  • Ctrl to go faster
  • Esc to open the menu
