SPACE MADNESS

This game was created during Yelp's Hackathon 25. Here's a video:

NOTE:

• Part of the game assets are coming from the Space Game Art Pack - extended made by Tatermand (CC)
• Astronauts assets are coming from androidarts.com made by Niklas Jansson - As they are not licenced properly, we will actually replace them. (But he does great work!)

INSTALL

NOTE: these instructions were tested exclusively on MacOS

Install system dependencies and libraries

• Install the support for the XBOX360 controllers following the instructions here
• Download SDL2 from this download page
• The installer contains SDL2.Framework inside. Move it to /Library/Frameworks
• Make sure you have python 3.6 installed. See the official download page (or use brew)
• Install swig with brew install swig

Download and install code requirements

• Clone SpaceMadness repo: git clone git@github.com:maxfish/SpaceMadness.git
• cd SpaceMadness
• Create a new virtualenv: python3.6 -m venv venv
• Activate it: venv/bin/activate
• Get pybox2d by cloning it (git clone https://github.com/pybox2d/pybox2d) or downloading it (curl -o pybox2d.zip https://codeload.github.com/pybox2d/pybox2d/zip/master && unzip pybox2d.zip) within the game folder
• Build pybox2d: cd pybox2d-master && python setup.py build && python setup.py develop && cd ..

Hardware requirements

• OpenGL: The game requires OpenGL v4.1 (core profile)
• Joysticks: You will need 3 joypads to control each single ship. The joysticks handling is done via SDL2 but right now only XBox360 and PS4 controller are supported. To support more joysticks models, or another OS, please have a look at the SDL2 database here: https://github.com/gabomdq/SDL_GameControllerDB
