easyTron is a 2D clone of Armagetron, currently in PRE-ALPHA, so don't expect too much yet.
This project will have a focus on multiplayer gaming, including a mode, where multiple participants will share one display but can use their own (networkbased) input device (laptop, smartphone,...)
EasyTron depents on QT Version >= 4 so make sure at least QT4 or is installed (QT5 is recommended):
Linux: (run as root or via sudo)
- QT5 (for QT4 replace 5 with 4):
apt-get install qt5-default qt5-qmake
Windows:
Check http://www.qt.io/download/
SFML is needed for the Joystick support.
You can compile withoug SFML by appending DEFINES+=NO_SFML
to your qmake command
Run following in your easyTron directory:
mkdir build
cd build
qmake ..
make
You can now run easyTron via ./easyTron
in your build directory
In the pre-alpha there are only two bikes, player 1 and player 2, here are the controls:
Player | Up | Down | Left | Right |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Up | Down | Left | Right |
2 | W | S | A | D |
So nothing special right now.
- Alt + Return: switch between Fullscreen and Window mode
- ctrl + Q : Quit
- F10: Toggle player names
- F11: Toggle frames per second
