Cross Platform Snake with C++ and SDL2

Build Status

There is no better way of learning than by building something. This is a clone of classic Snake game. By doing this, I intend to learn / refresh my skills in:

  • C++ (11+) and it's ecosystem
  • SDL2
  • Game Development
  • Packaging native, cross platform applications

Expectations

A lot of programming and especially gamedev learning resources available in the open are lacking discipline and professionalism - no tests, inconsistent, poorly organized code, no clue how to package releases - all the things that you usually learn in the battlefield over a decade or so. This project will aim to make a difference with following goals:

  • Clean, efficient C++
  • Code comments
  • Unit tests and linters on continuous integration pipeline
  • Automated scripts for building cross platform packages on VMs
  • Developing without Visual Studio, Xcode or other IDE / GUI tools

Status

This project is in it's very early stage. It is being built from scratch in the open, with little spare time for it.
