<--[ GENERAL ]-->
This is a simple game meant to be fun yet simple.
It uses ANSI codes to make it run without flicker compared to most small terminal games.
These codes currently need to be activated on windows 10 so lookup a guide.
The command i used to compile the game was:
GCC source.c resource.o -o SS.exe -Wall -Werror -W -lpthread
GCC : MinGw compiler
source.c : Source code
resource.o : ICON and version info (not required)
-o SS.exe : Set output file to SS.exe
-Wall : All warning about questionable code
-Werror : Make all warnings into errors
-W : Inhibit all warning messages
-lpthread : Link the pthread library
It was built on windows for windows.
But if you are on linux or OS X some google foo should get you some suitable replacements.
Under the spaceships section you will find my simple ship designs.
Under the controls section you will find the controls for the game
Under the info section you will find some basic info about the game build
The whole game falls under unlicense, but please plug my channel and leave this readme.
I cant force you but i can kindly ask.
