# MEGAMAN MAVERICK

---

Megaman Maverick is a non-commercial fan game based on the [classic Megaman series by Capcom](https://megaman.fandom.com/wiki/Mega_Man_(original_series)). 
All rights to "Megaman" are owned by Capcom, and this project aligns with their lenient stance on fan works.

Download and play the game on [itch.io](https://oldlavygenes474.itch.io/mega-man-maverick)!

The game features assets from official Capcom titles and the community (see [Credits](#Credits)).
Special thanks to these creators for helping make this dream project become a reality!

- Framework: [LibGDX](https://libgdx.com/)
- Language: [Kotlin](https://kotlinlang.org/)

## RUNNING THE GAME

Currently, there is no "official" release of this game since it is still under active development. However, see the
section below on how to run the game using the source code.

### BUILDING THE GAME FROM SOURCE

Since the game runs using gradle and JRE, you can build a JAR of the game yourself. Keep in mind that in order to run
the generated JAR, you will need Java 17+ installed on your local machine.

#### Pre-requisites:

- Git
- Java 17+

##### Notes:
- Download Git using the following link: https://git-scm.com/downloads
- Download JDK 17+ (skip this step if running IntelliJ): https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/jdk17-archive-downloads.html
  - Set JDK Home on Windows: https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/setting-the-java_home-variable-in-windows-8895.html
  - Set JDK Home on Mac: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22842743/how-to-set-java-home-environment-variable-on-mac-os-x-10-9
  - Set JDK Home on Linux: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1445833
  - If running Mac/Linux, run the following command to see if Java is properly installed and configured
    ```bash
    which java
    ```

1. Use `git` to clone the project to a suitable location on your desktop using the following command
   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/JohnLavender474/Megaman-Maverick.git
   ```
2. From the root directory of the game project, run one of the following:
   1. Mac/Linux (edit the shell script to change settings):
      ```bash
      build-run-desktop-debug.sh
      ```
   2. Windows (will have to pass program args if you want to change any settings):
      ```bash
      ./gradlew lwjgl:run
      ```
- See the [GDX Liftoff](#GDX-Liftoff) section for more gradle commands and details.

## PLAYING THE GAME

### CONTROLS

By default, the keyboard controls for the game are the following whether the 1st value is the keyboard key and the 2nd
value is the "in-game" action:
- A: LEFT
- D: RIGHT
- S: DOWN
- W: UP
- J: B
- K: A
- ENTER: START

These can be remapped through the keyboard settings screen accessed from the main menu. Use the keys for "UP" and "DOWN"
(by default the "W" and "S" keys respectively) to navigate to the game button you wish to remap and press the key for
"START" (by default the "ENTER" key). You will be prompted to press any key on the keyboard to assign that key's code
to the in-game button action.

The game supports controllers and should detect a controller as soon as it is plugged in. The keyboard controls continue
to work even when a controller is connected. The game has been tested with the following controllers:
- PS3 controller
- Xbox 360 controller
- NES-style USB controller

When a controller is connected, default mappings are assigned. Most likely, you will want to configure these mappings.
In the "Controller Settings" screen, you can reassign the mappings for the controller similarly to how the same is done
for the keyboard mappings.

#### Proof of Permissions for Fan Community Assets

For some of the fan artwork used in this game, the artist did not state in the work's description or elsewhere that the work was
free to use. For these works, I reached out to the artist personally to ask if I could use their work. Below are screenshots
as proof of permission. No proof is required for works where the description states that the asset is free to use.

## GDX Liftoff

This project was generated with a template including simple application launchers and an `ApplicationAdapter` extension that draws libGDX logo.

### Platforms

- `core`: Main module with the application logic shared by all platforms.
- `lwjgl3`: Primary desktop platform using LWJGL3; was called 'desktop' in older docs.

### Gradle

This project uses [Gradle](https://gradle.org/) to manage dependencies.
The Gradle wrapper was included, so you can run Gradle tasks using `gradlew.bat` or `./gradlew` commands.
Useful Gradle tasks and flags:

- `--continue`: when using this flag, errors will not stop the tasks from running.
- `--daemon`: thanks to this flag, Gradle daemon will be used to run chosen tasks.
- `--offline`: when using this flag, cached dependency archives will be used.
- `--refresh-dependencies`: this flag forces validation of all dependencies. Useful for snapshot versions.
- `build`: builds sources and archives of every project.
- `cleanEclipse`: removes Eclipse project data.
- `cleanIdea`: removes IntelliJ project data.
- `clean`: removes `build` folders, which store compiled classes and built archives.
- `eclipse`: generates Eclipse project data.
- `idea`: generates IntelliJ project data.
- `lwjgl3:jar`: builds application's runnable jar, which can be found at `lwjgl3/build/libs`.
- `lwjgl3:run`: starts the application.
- `test`: runs unit tests (if any).

Note that most tasks that are not specific to a single project can be run with `name:` prefix, where the `name` should 
be replaced with the ID of a specific project. For example, `core:clean` removes `build` folder only from the `core` 
project.
