Lua-Zombie-Game

Zombie Game that uses Lua in the LOVE engine.

Control a 2D circle as it tries to survive in a top-down world filled with dangerous zombie 2D circles.

Running:

To run from source, you must download LOVE and the source code. After unzipping the source code, follow the instructions in the LOVE wiki:

  • Windows: In file explorer, drag the src folder onto love.exe in the LOVE folder (make sure .dlls that come with LOVE installation are in same folder as love.exe)
  • Windows: In command prompt, enter "[LOVE Folder Path]\love.exe" "[Lua-Zombie-Game Folder Path]\src"
  • Linux: Enter love [Lua-Zombie-Game Folder Path]/src/
  • Mac: In Mac Terminal, enter open -n -a love "~[Lua-Zombie-Game Folder Path]/src

Controls:

  • WASD to move
  • Mouse to aim
  • M1 to shoot
  • 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 to switch weapons
  • R to reload

Sandbox Controls (Enter Konami Code):

  • F to spawn a zombie at the crosshair
  • V to set player health to 9999
  • B to make the zombies quiet
  • C to equip the Super Gun

Notable Accomplishments (for me):

  • Entity management system that manages multiple instances of a Class and automatically deletes them when a condition is met, shifting the rest of the entities in order to maintain an array structure
  • Collision system that utilizes AABB and circle collision algorithms
    • Efficient system that takes advantage of the Entity Management System in order to collide all objects against each other
  • No use of sprites or canvas - everything is either text or a circle

This project was developed over a duration of one week from 8/8/2020 - 8/14/2020
