Hi,

I managed to compile (except for input so far), the reference implementation and asteroids on my mac using X11. However, the main() function you showed is missing so far from the codebase. I wonder if you reused the main() provided in the N3888/P0267 reference implementation and modified that one to accommodate your game?

X11 Input will require some modification to the reference implementation of N3888 to also accept keyboard events ( hacking around so far, might require a lot more to make it useful beyond asteroids). However, it is like being transported 25 years back in time, which might have been the last time I actually wrote Xlib programs (mostly toy examples then).

Here is my main so far, where at lest the asteroids are moving around:

#include "io2d.h"
#include "Game.h"
#include "Constants.h"
int main() {
using namespace asteroids;
using namespace std::experimental::io2d;
auto ds = make_display_surface(static_cast(playing_field_width), static_cast(playing_field_height), format::argb32, scaling::letterbox, refresh_rate::as_fast_as_possible, 30.0);
game thegame;
ds.draw_callback(&{thegame.update(surface);});
return ds.begin_show();
}

You can not die.. that makes playing less fun :-)
