Pictomage

A top-down 2D puzzle-shooter game. Made in 1 week for the Raylib 5K gamejam. Play it from your browser on itch.io, or download a native binary from the Releases page.

System requirements

• WASM capable web browser (for the browser version).
• 1 GHz 64-bit CPU.
• 256 MB of RAM.
• OpenGL 3.3 / DirectX 10 capable GPU.

How to build

Web (Emscripten)

This all assumes you are using Windows 10. You will need the Emscripten SDK:

1. Go to the emsdk github page.
2. Click on the green Code dropdown and then Download ZIP.
3. Extract the zip to a folder called Emscripten, and put that folder wherever you want.
4. In the start menu search bar, search for path. Then click on Edit the system environment variables.
5. In the System variables list, find the Path variable, select it, then click Edit.
6. Press New, and type out the path to the Emscripten folder (e.g. C:\dev\Emscripten).
7. Press Ok to close all the open windows.
8. To make sure everything worked, open up a new command prompt, and run emsdk. It should say Missing command; Type 'emsdk help'..
9. In the same command prompt, run emsdk update followed by emsdk install latest.
10. You can now just run build_web.bat inside this project to build the game. The output goes into bin/web/.
11. Run run_web.bat to run the game in your browser.

Windows (Visual Studio)

1. You need to download and install Visual Studio 2022.
2. When you need to select which components to install, make sure Desktop development with C++ is ticked.
3. Open up Pictomage.sln in Visual Studio and click the run button at the top. The output goes into bin/windows/

Windows (MinGW)

Open a command line at the root of the project, and compile the code like this:

$ gcc -L./lib src/*.c -lraylib_windows_x64 -lwinmm -lgdi32 -o Pictomage.exe

Alternatively, you can run build_windows.bat, which will compile the code, and also embed the icon into the executable.

Mac (clang)

Open a terminal at the root of the project, and compile the code with clang:

$ clang -framework CoreVideo -framework IOKit -framework Cocoa -framework GLUT -framework OpenGL src/*.c -L./lib -lraylib_mac_x64 -o Pictomage -target x86_64-apple-macos10.12

This will produce an x64 executable, Pictomage, that you can run. If you want to compile for arm64 (Apple M1), run the following instead:

$ clang -framework CoreVideo -framework IOKit -framework Cocoa -framework GLUT -framework OpenGL src/*.c -L./lib -lraylib_mac_arm64 -o Pictomage -target arm64-apple-macos11

The build_mac.sh script will compile the code for both targets, package it into a universal binary, make an app bundle, as well as a DMG installer. Run it like this:

$ chmod +x macbuild.sh
$ ./macbuild.sh

The output will be in bin/mac/.

Linux (X11, GCC)

Open a terminal at the root of the project, and compile the code like this:

$ gcc -Wno-unused-result -L./lib src/*.c -lraylib_linux_x64 -lm -ldl -lpthread -lGL -lX11 -o Pictomage
