SDL Pong Mayhem :-)
Copyright (c) 2020 Adrian Petrila, YO3GFH
Simple pong game built with the Pelle's C compiler and SDL graphic/media library:

https://www.libsdl.org/download-2.0.php/
It also uses SDL_TTF, SDL_Image and SDL_Mix:
https://www.libsdl.org/projects/
It uses the Mulish true-type font, designed by Vernon Adams

Background texture built from a image I found by typing "grim reaper" in Google :-)

Features
-
Multiplayer 8-) W/S keys for left player, UP/DOWN for right player. You can even play left hand against right hand :-))
-
Variable ball speed, change it with -/= (or keypad +/-). Press F1 for help :)
-
Wallpaper =) just put something called "wallpaper.png" in game folder.
-
Music and sound effects, yayy :)) put something called "music.wav" in game folder to play as music (looped) and "bump.wav" to play when hitting the ball with the paddles.
This was done with the Pelle's C compiler v9.0 as my first SDL app. Had a ton of fun scribbling it.
It's taylored to my own needs/taste, modify it to suit your own. I'm not a professional programmer, so this isn't the best code you'll find on the web, you have been warned :-))
To install SDL (and TTF, Mix and Image) with Pelle, download the devel packages and copy the .lib files in Pelle Lib/Win and Lib/Win64.
Go to Pelle include folder and make a subfolder called sdl. Copy all the header files found in the devel packages include folder here.
Put the dll's in the project folder (if the target is 32 bits, copy the 32 bit dll, if 64 then the 64 bit one, you get the picture).
In project options, add the include/sdl folder you just created to the include path. Also, go to linker properties and add sdl2.lib, sdl2main.lib, sdl2_mixer.lib, sdl2_ttf.lib and sdl2_image.lib to the library list.
All the bugs are guaranteed to be genuine, and are exclusively mine =)
