pigs-n-cows

Small children's game done in a morning. It was based around the idea of a casual game where you cannot lose.

How to play

  • up-down to aim.
  • left-right to toggle between pigs and cows (pigs fly further, cows grant more points).
  • hold and release space to launch.
  • aim for the incoming ballons.
  • hit more than one ballon with the same animal to rack up combo points.
  • cows grant more points than pigs, but cannot fly as far.
  • fill up the score bar to raise the maximum number of animals.
  • the game never ends, just chill.

Building.

You must either do a build to use on the computer you are building or to create an AppImage from the build (the appimage has a particular path for the resources).

execute build.sh [regular|appimage]

The build system is far from perfect and may give you some headaches. If you just want to play, consider getting a pre-made package from the releases page on this project on github. I should be also be on itch.io and gamejolt.com.

Creating the AppImage with linuxdeploy

run make_appimage.sh
