Bitman
A downloadable game
Simply move with the arrow keys. If you bump into an enemy, you'll have to fight (and you have 40 seconds to do so). type in the number that, by applying the displayed binary bitwise operation to it and the enemy's code, will equal the goal.
Kill all enemies to win the game.
Note: the only slightly redeeming quality of this game is that it's made with XLib. Otherwise, it completely sucks. This is my first game jam, sorry.
Download
Install instructions
This is a very simple game. To build it from source, you'll need to have:
- A C compiler
- XLib development files
- POSIX make
That's it. Go to the sources, type make, and when it's done just start the game with ./game.

Heya, trying to get your game running in an Ubuntu VM. I installed libx11-dev, but it's complaining about undefined references to XOpenDisplay, etc. Is there something else I need to install to get it building?
Well that's embarrassing... I'm a pretty bad game dev.
By VM, are you doing it on a proper VM or WSL? The latter doesn't always work with X11.
Can you post the entire error?
(I suck at this. Sorry.)
I see other people made it easy with running it on the web... well...
All good! I'm probably just missing a library or have a path wrong or something. It's a VirtualBox VM running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I installed `build-essential` and `libx11-dev`. Here's what I get when I run `make`:
According to what I found, compiling with this command should work: make "LDFLAGS=-lX11 -lm -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/" full-clean all
I'm not sure though, since I'm on Manjaro and it puts the libraries in a different place.
No, actually.Run it manually, it should work:
rm -f main.o gfx.o game.o worldgen.o battle.o game
rm -f config.h
cp config.def.h config.h
cc -c -o main.o -std=c89 -Wall -pedantic -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -g -Wno-deprecated-declarations main.c
cc -c -o gfx.o -std=c89 -Wall -pedantic -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -g -Wno-deprecated-declarations gfx.c
cc -c -o game.o -std=c89 -Wall -pedantic -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -g -Wno-deprecated-declarations game.c
cc -c -o worldgen.o -std=c89 -Wall -pedantic -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -g -Wno-deprecated-declarations worldgen.c
cc -c -o battle.o -std=c89 -Wall -pedantic -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -g -Wno-deprecated-declarations battle.c
cc -o game main.o gfx.o game.o worldgen.o battle.o -lX11 -lm
I think it's working for those manual commands because the library args come after the object file args. When I move `${LD_FLAGS}` after `${OBJ}` in the `game` target in the Makefile, it builds. See also https://github.com/jumper149/blugon/issues/22.
I've got it running now, thanks!
