My first game in C

As I mentioned in the previous post, I’m planning to create a game in C using the SDL2 library.

So to “get the hang of” how to build a game with SDL2, I followed a YouTube tutorial called Game Programming in C using SDL.

The project can be found at the link below:

• sdl2-pong - Pong but written in C using SDL2.

I didn’t find building the game complicated at all. SDL2 has a really nice abstraction for detecting collisions and I had no issues during the construction of the game.

In the future I plan to add sound effects and sprites to the game.

I also plan to create a web demo of the game, using Web Assembly.

Well… that’s it for now.

See you next time!
