The Knight of Log
A downloadable game for Windows
My intake assignment for the BUAS CMGT Programming track.
In The Knight of Log, you play as a knight on the last line of defense. You need to prepare yourself for the inevitable onslaught, and of course your noble sacrifice. Survive as long as you can, and feel free to exploit the physics system as much as you can!
It is very much possible to play this game with a friend, so that one controls the character and one controls the mouse. Or you could play it alone (if you're skillful like that)....
Currently features gameplay, a dynamic structure building system, resources system, player stuff, physics bodies interaction, enemies, and a stable physics engine (probably not).
First time i made a game in C++, very interesting language coming from C#.
Please also check out the credits.txt in the root folder, without all the amazing free stuff that's available on here by generous game asset publishers this project would've never come to life like this.

Despite the instructions the title screen, it's not clear how to actually build things in the game...
If I hold down RMB, I can place logs, but as soon as I release RMB, they fall... So how am I supposed to "nail them down" when they just fall to the ground?
It's also not clear how you're supposed to link logs together...
You also display "Player Controls": WASD, Space, but you don't really say what these buttons actually do...
Hello, I've added a build system sandbox with a small tutorial. thanks for the feedback
There are 2 exe files in your zip file:
Please make sure you only have 1 exe in the root folder of your zip file (do not use subfolders in your game's zip file).
Also, mark the game as "Windows" in itch.io, otherwise Itch doesn't know how to launch your game.
Thanks for the feedback, the above issues have been resolved
