Running the game

Option 1 :

Run the packaged executable

Go to releases and follow the instructions for your OS.
The packaged executables are only tested on limited hardware so there may be some problems that we have not faced.
If the executable packages do not work, then the most reliable way is to run the program from source, which will be explained below.

Option 2 :

Running from source

1. Make sure you have python3.10 installed. You can download and install it from https://www.python.org/downloads/
2. Clone the repo and cd into it
3. Install pygame by running pip install pygame to install it globally, or create a python venv^[1] and install it there
4. If you're using a venv, activate it and then run python3 src/main.py

[1] Create a venv by running python3 -m venv venv

Configuring Game Settings

All the configurable settings are stored in the settings/settings.json file in the game folder.
Since the current version of PIXELJUMP does not support in-game settings configuration yet, the only way to adjust the game settings is to edit the settings.json file.

Screen Resolution

The game is in 1920x1080 by default as it was the resolution we had in mind when designing the game but you can change it to your liking.
The screen resolution of the game can be changed by adjusting the screen_width and screen_height keys in settings.json

FPS

It is not reccomended to change the FPS as it may cause some unwanted behaviours

Player velocity and gravity

Feel free to mess around with the velocity and gravity of the player :smile:
