Getting started

This is a little game made by two students, Dídac Llop Serna & Ivan Ropero Garcia, of the CITM UPC center for the development assignment.

Core subsystems

On the top of everything there is the main module called j1App.cpp . This module manages all the other modules calling in a loop its respective Awake, PreUpdate, Update, Postupdte, Cleanup that they share through a base class j1Module.h . Do not forget that there is a Main.cpp that has a switch of the different states said before.

Then the game is divided in 4 main blocks:

  • The j1Scene where everything is printed managed by a module called j1Scene.
  • The Modules that manage different aspects of the game such as: audio, input, collisions, renderer, console, etc…
  • The j1Entities such as: coins, enemies and player; managed by a module called EntityManager.
  • The j1Gui where there are some classes that represent diferent elements of gui such as: images, buttons, labels, sliders, checkbox, input boxes. This is managed by a module called j1Gui.

Innovations
