Choose Your Own Adventure/Adventure RPG

DEMO VIDEO BELOW

Overview

A terminal game programmed completely in C++

You can upload your own files by renaming the game_name file in main.cpp and uploading the files in the following format:

[game_name]_items.txt
[game_name]_text.txt
[game_name]_nodes.txt

This program has 2 different gamefile types already loaded in (ghostworld and jungle)

Skills used: Linked lists, Object Oriented programming practices like polymorphism and inheritance, file reading/writing, and sorting/search algorithms

Features

• Custom Item, Text, and Node files (make your own!)
• Complete inventory system
  • This includes picking up and dropping items
• Victory, Death, and Obstructed nodes (require a specific item to traverse)
• Select from two different premade games (ghostworld and jungle)

Setup

1. Download/Clone Repository and navigate into the project folder
2. Run ./start in terminal
   • If it doesn't work, install gcc/g++ and run g++ *.cpp, ./a.out
3. Enjoy!
