GLFW, GLM and OpenAL are required to play. I use find_package to locate these libraries so on Linux it should be a matter of installing them via the terminal and then running CMake. On Windows you should specify these directories manually unless you have installed the libraries in a way that they can be found on the PATH variable. EnTT and sol2 will attempt to find_package but if not, CMake will download the required versions from GitHub and use that local version in the build using FetchContent.

Run CMake and generate a project, preferably in a build/ directory. Compile the program with your chosen compiler for your OS/IDE. The external dependencies (GLFW, GLM and OpenAL) will be built automatically by CMake in this step too. Then on Linux, just execute the pacman file. If you use Visual Studio the relative directories are weird when running so you must manually copy the res folder into the same folder as your executable. This does not apply for VSCode or other generators on Windows.

The application works with relative paths where the relativity always starts from the path of the executable on your hard drive, and not your working directory.

Remember to build in Release mode to avoid being spammed with Debug info and overlays.

The game has multiple levels you can play through. It attempts to be as true to the original as possible, with a few tweaks and a more modern feel overall. For example, the theme is remixed and due to the new levels things work differently. Also, the Ghost AI is not 100% like the original. Check out the Help / Credits section of the Main Menu in order to see more info.

When you play, your goal is to eat all the tiny food objects without dying. When you do, you win. A high score is recorded locally and as long as you play on the same PC, you can compete with others. The high scores are per level, so if you are terrible at one level, perhaps you will shine doing another one. (Future idea: Sync high scores online)

All sound effects are home-made using SFXR or recorded live and are CC0, public domain now.

The remixed theme was made by my cousin, Andreas Findahl on request by me. Check him out, he makes good stuff, and can not be used elsewhere without their permission.
