Summary:

Don't Deploy Your Chute is a game about falling. But don't worry,

you have a parachute! But just one, so don't go wasting it. The

objective of Don't Deploy Your Chute is to get as many points as

possible without dying. Each level, once you reach the end, you

have to decide to continue to the next level by going through the

hold in the ground, or land using your parachute. Once you land,

you end your run and save your points. If you die, you lose all

of your points.

How to run the game:

This game was built using Microsoft Visual Studio Desktop Express,

but it can be compiled into any system. It is written in C++ and

uses SFML-2.1 (http://www.sfml-dev.org/).

Windows:

1) Contained in this zip file are two folders. Debug and Release.

Unless you have problems running the game, choose Release.

Run "DontDeployYourChute.exe"

If you encounter an error that says "Unable start because

MSVCR110.dll is missing from your computer." you will have to

download and install Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012

Mac/Linux:

You will have to compile this yourself. I apologize for the trouble,

but I don't have a Mac and I don't have the time to build one on

Linux.

How to Play:

The goal is to get the highest score. The faster you go, the more points

you get. You can also get points by going through the hole in the ground

at the end of the level (which will start you on the next level) and by

picking up the bonus objects.

If you die, your score is lost. If you want to save your score, you must

land at the end of the level. You land by deploying your parachute. Keep

in mind the parachute takes some time to deploy, so you have to plan ahead.

Also, the parachute will fail 5 seconds after you deploy it, killing you.

(Hint: Deploy the parachute around when you stop seeing bonuses and spike

obstacles)
