Milestones
As a rough idea of the milestones needed for this game to work:
SDL Paint Program
- Create a basic SDL window that you can click on to color pixels.
- Connect the pixels while the mouse is down to cover gaps.
- Implement a "screenshot" button that translates the canvas to a PNG
image on disk.
F12key to take a screenshot of your drawing.- It reproduces a PNG image using its in-memory knowledge of the pixels you have drawn, not by reading the SDL canvas. This will be important for making the custom level format later.
- The PNG I draw looks slightly different to what you see on the SDL canvas;
maybe difference between
Renderer.DrawLine()and my own algorithm or the anti-aliasing.
- Create a custom map file format (protobufs maybe) and "screenshot" the canvas into this custom file format.
- Make the program able to read this file format and reproduce the same pixels on the canvas.
Platformer
- Start implementing a platformer that uses the custom map format for its rendering and collision detection.
