In Edgar the X-Terminator, you play as Edgar, a bug exterminator. Collect stars for points as you fight against a hoard of angry cockroaches.
From the latest release, download the build from the latest release. Then unzip and run COMP-8551-Project.exe.
If you prefer to create a build yourself, open Visual Studio.
At the top, change the build mode to Release.
Then, click on Build->Build Solution. This will generate the exe inside the root folder’s x64/Release folder.
Now, you’ll have to copy the resource files (png files, wav files etc.) into this folder. To do this efficiently, we create a bash file in the project called copy.sh. It contains a simple cp file that copies over all the necessary resource files.
You can run the bash file on Windows by using Git bash or any Linux shell while the cwd is the project root folder. Note: in case the path doesn’t work, you can try these versions of the commands. They use different versions of the paths.
cp *.mp3 *.wav *.dll *.png *.fs *.vs *.ttf *.json .\x64\Release
cp *.mp3 *.wav *.dll *.png *.fs *.vs *.ttf *.json .\\x64\\Release
cp *.mp3 *.wav *.dll *.png *.fs *.vs *.ttf *.json ./x64/Release
- WASD to move
- J to shoot
- Q to close the game
The goal is to collect stars for points. Collect stars and aim for a high score!
