Inspiration
We hate sprites. So, we challenged ourselves to create a game in C++ only using Ascii.
What it does
Its a game that is created all by Ascii. You have to fight Monsters you run into on the map by attacking and using items that you found around the map. You fight and try to win! Keep fighting the monsters until they all die and collect a lot of items to help with battles as they progress to get harder.
How we built it
Rehat Cheema, Jusraj Toor, and Matthew Kim coded C++ and all in Ascii.
Challenges we ran into
Creating the map and dealing with the sound because it worked before and all of sudden before submitting it doesn't working.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Creating a project using ONLY ascii and in C++ as one of the members was a complete beginner.
What we learned
Learned the challenges of coding in such a small time frame and having big goals and only achieving the minimum of them. Also learnt how to code in ascii and C++ for one of the members.
What's next for Mascii
Slowly progress to fix the sound, add more attacks and different ways to defend the monsters. Also, add certain healing powers and different types of zombies, more levels, bigger maps and harder monsters. There is a lot that could be done, but MasseyHacks was an experience and had a blast coding away in a hackaton for the first time.
