Source Code Also Available!!!

Make sure you have your SDL 2 development environment set up, along with the SDL_Image, SDL_Mixer, and SDL_ttf extensions installed. Everything else is included so you can compile it directly into the executable rather than linking DLLs, just make sure to point your compiler (or your IDE) at the includes folder and augment your paths accordingly. In addition, Push!!! uses some C++17 features which means your compiler must support C++17.

***Troubleshooting Screen Resolution Issues***

If you are able to, go to the options screen and select a good screen resolution for your television or monitor. If you are unable to select a resolution from the options screen, you can still fix it by opening the options file in the "data/options.json" folder. Just be sure that the screen width ("Resolution X") and height ("Resolution Y") correspond to a valid screen resolution for your television or monitor. For example, if you wish to play in a window that is 800x600 then set "Resolution X: 800" and "Resolution Y: 600".


Controls

Gameplay

The object of the game is to push your opponents into traps - lava, spikes, under moving boulders, and other dangerous things. Fire rocks at them or use the dash to push them. Avoid the flying fish, or ride them if you dare! Did I mention that there are 4,000 bees in one of the levels? The bees will chase you every now and then, just to keep you on your toes ;)
After about 3 minutes, the winner will be the player with the fewest deaths. Good luck!
