R-Type

The R-Type is an Epitech Project, but also a known videogame !

This project is our interpretation of the game, modulated as a Bullet-Hell.

We made it using C++, the Raylib graphical library, and that’s pretty much it !

We implement a fully from-scratch & personalized network library, featuring nice packet abstraction.
We also have a custom ECS implementation, great for showing a loooot of bullets on the screen !

Play with your friends !

How to get started

You need to have gcc-c++, make & cmake, and git installed. That is it !

make release

Three binaries will then be created :

• r-type_client, graphical client.
• r-type_server, server.
• r-type_rcon, rcon command cli tool.

./r-type_client IP PORT [-d]
./r-type_server -p PORT [-t TICKSPEED] [-d]
./r-type_rcon IP PORT

Example:
./r-type_client gillier.dev 4242

If you are running a server or rcon, you can setup the RCON passkey in the rtype.cfg file.
By default it will be randomly generated.
