Match3-PGE

Simple clone of the common match3 genre using the olc::PixelGameEngine by Javidx9. It's just for fun and educational purpose. Feel free to modify, improve, and use it :) If you want to use the gem assets, feel free to use them in any creative way as I released them into public domain - acknowledgement is appreciated.

Installation

Just do for standard compilation on Linux (tested with gcc 8.2.1):

    # generates the application
    g++ -o Jewel mainJewels.cpp -lX11 -lGL -lpthread -lpng -lstdc++fs -std=c++17
    # run the application
    ./Jewel

Usage

Simply use the mouse to select a gem and another for switching gems. Try to create rows or coloumns with at least 3 similar colored gems or using anycolor gem.

Special gems:

• Bomb: 4 gems in consecutive order row/column
• Rainbow: 5 gems in consecutive order row/column
• Star (AnyColor gem): 7 different gems in consecutive order row/column
• Color Heart (AnyColor bomb): 3 gems + star in consecutive order row/column
• Color Rainbow: 4 gems + star/color heart in consecutive order row/column or 3+2stars

Effect:

• Bomb: destroy 3x3 vicinity of bomb
• Rainbow: destroy all gems of same color
• Star: has every color for replacement
• Color Heart: bomb with every color
