Pong

Pong is a built-in ASCII remake of the classic Atari Pong game. This is relatively complete game of pong, visually close to its original version. Entire game is less 500 lines of code showcasing basic mechanics of the CosPlay games as well as power of programmable shaders.

To play this game run the following commands:

Maven From IDE
                    # One-time Git clone & build:
                    $ git clone https://github.com/nivanov/cosplay.git
                    $ cd cosplay

                    # To run the game:
                    $ sbt "project cosplay; package; runMain org.cosplay.games.pong.CPPongGame"
                
                    # One-time Git clone & build:
                    $ git clone https://github.com/nivanov/cosplay.git
                    $ cd cosplay
                    $ mvn package

                    # To run the game:
                    $ mvn -f modules/cosplay -P pong exec:java
                

From IDE just execute this class: org.cosplay.games.pong.CPPongGame

The game looks like that:

Built-In Terminal Emulator

By default, the game starts in the system terminal. If you want to run this examples in the built-in terminal emulator you need to add emuterm as a program argument. Depending on how you start the game - SBT, Maven, IDE or straight command line - this is done differently. For example:

Maven
                    $ sbt "project cosplay; runMain org.cosplay.games.pong.CPPongGame emuterm"
                
                    mvn -f modules/cosplay -P pong exec:java -Dexec.arguments="emuterm"
