tiny horse

A multiplayer "game" written as a small example of pony.

Requirements:

• ponyc >= 0.21
• SDL2
• SDL2_image.

Build instructions

• make
• build/server [server-ip] [server-port]
• build/client [server-ip] [server-port]

Note: Currently the "client" application requires having the "data" folder (where pictures are stored) available locally. Suggestion: Either copy or symlink the data folder to build folder where the binary files are compiled into.

Action

• Connect to the game server.
• Game is a single screen showing a top-down green field of grass.
• Each player controls a horse that can walk around using arrow keys.
• Others can connect to same server, everyone sees everyone.
• Randomly, once in a while, an apple will appear on the play field.
• Walk over an apple to collect it.
• The number of collected apples will appear above the horses' head.
